Guild Wars 2

On my warrior if I use vengeance to try and kill subject 7, he is immune to death.
He’s goes to 0%, the damage shows up that I’m doing, but he DOES NOT DIE

I have tried several times, the result doesn’t change.

see this video below as proof, and arena net, please fix this bug so I can progress the tournament, thank you.

at 10 seconds in you see subject 7 with no HP left, while i smack him for several seconds and he’s not dying.

Isn’t that just the AoE cap? Shoulda kept throwing them rocks.

I found a work around to this bug.. kind of.
If you use the dicipline trait “sweet revenge” where you rally after killing a foe during vengeance, subject 7 does actually die, but you still die after ported back to the ledge after anyway, so there’s a second bug to note also.
But at least you can complete this (and I guess other events) with vengeance.
I fear this bug is not just limited to this boss only..

I have killed some other bosses while under Vengeance, so it’s not all of them at least.

Interesting little tidbit here though.

i killed subject 7 yesterday using vengeance.

weird, I guess then it’s a new bug, or it’s just the spec/traits combination I have, who knows, but you can see the vid is proof. anyway I’m just glad I found a work around to the bug, as my gear doesn’t permit me to kill him sooner than I am downed.

According to the combat log, your whirling axe only hits subject 7 once for 181 damage near the beginning of the cast (AoEs have a maximum target limit). At that point it looks like subject 7 has 0% health, but it probably had 182+.

See? It was the AoE cap. Too many oozes.
