Guild Wars 2

Hello guys

so what the hell is this? I often see it in my combat log when playing PvE. And I get this message in different group events. I do Teq the most so when I noticed this happening first I thought its from the big dudes that walk around, become invuln. when reaching 0% HP and then explode into a poison field. You know this too, you’ve seen it many times.

But I was wrong, because this happened to me several times when there were no mobs around. I get this even when im like 600-1000 units away from any mob. I get it during temple events, or any open world event for that matter (story journal events too – just been 1-shot in an Iron Marches event this morning). I can see nothing being casted at me, I see no mob targetting me… And all of a sudden, BANG I’m 1-shot from full HP. This ‘explosion’ hits me for 19k+ all the time, sometimes 50k+ according to the combat log.

So is this some common ability that various trash mobs have? Or is this a bug? I never see red circles, telegraphed abilities or even anything around me. Its getting really annoying.

Thx for the help

Ok, maybe I was too trigger-happy to create this topic…

However I’m still not 100% sure as there are no details about the mob’s ability such as radius or damage. Either way its stupid.

This has been brought up numerous times already in the bugs section. I don’t recall ever seeing any sort of response so good luck with that …

this happened during the last crown pavilion. what was happening is liadri’s attacks were coming down from the gauntlets above to kill players on the ground. I think they never did fix it… I’m pretty sure that’s not what’s happening to you here :P just wanted to point it out.
I really hate unsourced damaged in the combat log.

Thank god its not a game-breaking issue… FIX THE kitten IMMOB-BUG INSTEAD!))

Anyways, thx guys.
