Guild Wars 2

2 problems:

1. We had a strange encounter with the Imbued Shaman in the Vulcanic Fractal. The Shaman was still in the middle of the island and clearly out of reach of every prisoner, but suddenly he made the animation of devouring one prisoner, and he regenerated life.
And in fact a prisoner far away was consumed, but he absolutely wasn’t in reach of anyone.
Here is a video to show this (3x slow motion):

The prisoner at the far right end of the island is consumed.

2. There is a another thing in the video (saw this in other videos as well): his shield won’t lose one stack for every “blocked” hit from skills like Meteor shower, Lava Font or Sand Storm. In the video, there are 2 times 3 “blocked” messages from him, but the shield won’t decrease even by 1. Is there a cooldown for the shield decrease or even only 1 stack per skill activation and not for every hit that was “blocked”?

This happened to me on stream when I was trying to duo him with my friend on scale 50.

I’ve asked about it and was told it was just RNG but that doesn’t sound right.

Either way it really is horrendous how buggy this encounter is. This bug, the floor randomly applying burning despite moving constantly, and the lava fonts displayed as inactive yet they apply lava damage.

It’s all so pathetic.

The worst part about it all is there’s no chance these problems will ever be fixed…
