Random downed states in fractals since patch
Do you have 70 AR? (^_^)
I have 90 but not just me, my party members too, just random downed states all over the place
Same happened to me after killing Berserker. No aoes or anything around, only the other molten guy speaking his phrases before going to second phase of the fight. I just randomly got some very high ticking attack going on me and pretty much instantly died. I have 85AR so that shouldn’t be the problem.
I checked the log after silly few downs, it shows no dmg recived.
Yeah… my downs were all random, no reason at all
I joke, that sucks, haven’t seen it myself, just from me doing dumb stuff.

That’s an old bug. Berserker can use double jump attack when he is dead.
My experience was different. Both of them were alive, i ran across the arena to heal nowhere near fire aoe, or zerk’s jump wave or clapity claps, zerker was on half of the health and then sudden down out of the blue. I glanced at the party while downed, 2 of them were also downed, one next to me other somwhere near. we wiped and second time because same thing happened. I dunno. one of my party member had like 3 dcs during the last boss too. Bugs bugs bugs.

No, I don’t mean the “zombie berserker” bug where he rises from death and jumps around spreading shockwaves. What happened to me was something different. I didn’t see any reason for the damage that I took and combat log didn’t show anything either. It felt like there was invisible AOEs or something.
Can confirm on molten duo boss that there are invisible fire fields and have it on video.

Can you link that? And is your combat log visible too?
Combat log is not visible. I’ll post it tomorrow. We were working on a molten duo record run and all of sudden we were burning then dead. There was a fire field there before, then it disappeared but apparently persisted even after the red ring and the fire field graphics disappeared. Started burning then started dying.
My video quality got all jacked up some reason so its pretty pixelated. Probably since I was streaming earlier and hadn’t reset my pc. You can still see that there’s no fire field where we’re standing though. I’ll see if anybody else was recording which they should have been.

The link in your signature is broken, just fyi. It links to “https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/dungeons/Random-downed-states-in-fractals-since-patch/www.lodgw2.com”

That is really weird. Profile has the link right.
Eh fixed now. That’s weird. Was working on all my other posts.

It’s a little pixelated. Sorry about that.
You can see a fire field on the ground in the first four seconds of the video. We waited until that field disappeared and moved onto that spot to stack Might. Our Warrior, Guardian, and one of the eles immediately started burning. The other two eles didn’t since we weren’t standing where the field used to be.
It almost looks like the red ring indicating a hostile field and the fire field disappeared but the field persisted. At 0:08, you can see a white circle which is supposed to be a friendly field show up in the same spot where we’re burning.
Don’t know if this is the same problem that the OP had.

Nop, i usually pop stoneskin when i firefields pile up all around me or use clensing fire to remove burning, i’m zerk so if i stay in fire longer then 2 sec i die, but in my case there was no fields what so ever, red or white, i got insta downed in 2 rounds, so as my other 2 party members, i have 90 ar so when agony hits i bearly even notice it, so agony didn’t do it. I was miles away from any kind of aoe. Maybe it’s just that one time bug idunno.
My combat log showed no dgm recived too.
Perhaps you encountered a lag and didn’t realize it. While you stood at some point or moved, a fire field appeared under you, or you were hit by a wave, but you weren’t able to see it, so you didn’t dodge or moved away: the data packet that contained the information was stalled on the network.
Sometimes we have simultaneous lags for some or even all party members, so it fits perfectly with your description that not only you but also party members were downed at the same time.
Yup, another example is those Tequatl death zones. Sometimes they won’t even appears for a good while, yet you still receive damage.
It’s really annoying when it happens.
BTW those fire field issues have existed since the molten instance went live in season 1. They’ve always been there sometimes you’ll die to something that has no telegraph and doesn’t appear on the screen.
Same principle with bloomhunger. Sometimes with Archdiviner he’ll do his swirl, a projectile doesn’t hit you at all on sxreen but you still take the damage, or sometimes the damage is delayed so even though you evade the projectile the damage registers afterwards.
These kind of things will sadly always happen in an online action combat MMO. You take the good with the bad.

Like with Lupicus, AoEs don’t always appear.
