King Toad will reset health to full when we die once.
Storm Wizard’s True form will reset health to full, too.
But the platform still not coming back.
This is not found in patch note.
Is this a bug?

Seems like a bug.

I mean, it makes sense to some degree, makes it more of a challenge and less of a “spam deaths until you win” type situation. And most old games certainly make you beat the boss in one life, so it would fit with that.

But at the same time its never been that way in SAB before, bosses and all enemies have always maintained their health even after player deaths, so changing it now would be kind of random, and it wasn’t mentioned in any patch notes as an intended change, not to mention the issue with the storm wizard platforms making it seem less like a “battle reset” intended to make you beat it in one life.

Was there an update in the last few hours? I took the wizard about 11 hours ago and I ended up feeding him a few coins before winning, and he didn’t reset his health.

@Electro
Hope they will fix this bug before SAB gone.

@Sariel V
Wizard don’t reset, but his true form (cloud dragon) will reset.

Well at least for the storm wizard his health resetting is a non issue if you have the chain sticks, they deal enough damage to take about 3/4 of his hp off by the time he flies away and once he’s flown off you can still damage him for a while. Just continue to swing into thin air without moving and you’ll still see that you’re hitting something on each swing but no damage displayed and a few swings later you’ll have taken the last of his hp and he dies.

Since there’s nothing attacking you while he’s stunned you effectively win the moment he lands and is vulnerable

Toad also is randomly not registering the jewel throw when I have never had a problem before.

Make sure you are targetting him and not his necklace when you throw it. I had the same issue and was starting to get mad when I realized I wasn’t targetting King Toad but rather his necklace.

I won’t stop because I can’t stop.

It’s a medical condition, they say its terminal….

SAB main bosses have always reset when you enter “Moto Hell”, that should be nothing new…. or do they always reset now?

Toad did not reset for me yesterday at least.

Toad never reset for me in dozens of tribulation runs in the past. He will now reset about 75% of the time, maybe higher.

Though my groups never wiped on a Boss, SAB doesn’t need this.

I want to see SAB succeed and be completed.

Yeah his HP resets now if you die. Silent nerf on Frog Fingering or a bug?

Unlikely, what do you get out of the toad, two (well effectively three) bauble bubble’s a day and two continue coins. Why would that need a nerf… if you can do Trib to frog consistently, Moto’s Finger is hardly going to give you much of an edge there either.

If it is intentional, then more likely it is to prevent rez rushing bosses, but I find stopping that a pointless exercise as well, because All SAB stuff, outside of rare drops from daily chests are account bound afaik, thus not something you can farm for profit reliably.

Just noticed this too. Unnecessary change and just makes things worse for people having trouble with these bosses.
