guardian of the chimera bug

report ref numb: 883.598.078

bug when fighting chimera on pit of the chimera map.

The boss spammed on what i think was flicker strike (maybe was a combo attack) and would not do other then that, being impossible to cause damage to him. I got hit more then 15 times, relog and then again more then 10 times and still nothing for me to hit. Relog again ans still on that annoying flicker effect. Seens like some kind of red snake with some smoke effect, pissed me off cause i could not finish the map and lost 35 chaos (nice). Saw some videos of other players doing the same maps and the flicker effect lasted 3 hits top 5...


ps: could not link screen shot cause i forgot how to do and was lazy to figure it out at the moment

you mean when he goes into the smoke cloud phase? you just have to run through all smoke clouds until you find him, then he reappears and you can continue the fight.

not a bug just part of the fight.

i did that mate. There's some stuff going on with the game. I crafted on atlas those red circles that deal lots of damage and u get killed within seconds when inside then. Doing a map w those and some of the circles where invisible, just that. Same dmg status appeared on screan so it was the red circle for sure. annoying!

He didn't appear though, even after running through all the smoke phases. He just kept flickering me for 4k+ hits non-stop

Something is bugged

There were NO smoke clouds left anywhere in the arena? When you clear a cloud it disappears. I have a feeling that there was still smoke in the arena.

There was tons of smoke all over. But he didn't re-appear, kept flickering or moving fast and hitting me for 4k+ each time every 100-300ms.

Was right after I died and re-spawned back in (did it 5 other times, all died within seconds)

That was after running over tons of smoke cloud areas he still didn't appear

Then you did not understand the mechanics, if there was still smoke in the arena. You have to find him in the smoke, which ends the phase. You have to go through the right smoke cloud, where he is hiding, at which point he will pop out and the fight continues. Quicksilver, move skills, vaal discipline (if you are ES based) are all worth saving for this phase. The only way you can say there was a bug is if you had entered every single smoke cloud, and he did not re-appear. I have done this fight more times than I can count, and through the three smoke phases, every time, he always re-appears when I have tagged the right cloud.

And who are you to tell me what I cannot report as a bug and what I can?

I have ran through each smoke screen. Around 3, 4 or 5 cannot remember. He doesn't appear. I already fucking said that in this thread.

Absolutely fed up with people on their high horse on this forum

Easy bud. Trying to help, but honestly, without a /bug report, and screenshots, there isn't really much they can do. I ran Chimera a handful of times last night, and every time, the smoke phase progressed as it was supposed to when I entered the correct cloud. One thing to remember is that the clouds are essentially circles. Sometimes these circles overlap, and form a larger cloud in appearance. entering one of the overlapping circles does NOT count as clearing the entire larger "combined" overlapping cloud, only the circular segment you entered. There are a lot more than 3,4,5 clouds by the way.

Bugged or not this phase is cheap and stupid. There's no skill here, just "because I said so" from the devs. Whatever, I'll just not play this map. The drops are worthless and I can just party with someone using the "correct" build to get the atlas bonus.

The logic here is totally absent. Why even use any other attack if you have this ability? Total immersion breakage.
