Ever since the season started I can no longer do damage to Ashava or so it seems, unless the damage numbers showing on screen is bugged.
Every now and then I see one or two damage numbers show up, but 99% of the time there is no damage numbers on screen.
Puncture shows no damage numbers. I can see I get Combo Points from Puncture.
Shadow step shows no damage numbers.
Once in a blue moon I can see a damage number from one or two arrows from Rapid fire that hits and shows damage.
It looks like I’m hitting invisible walls. The arrows seem to vanish just around the monster model.
I can show a recording of it if anyone wants to see.
I can only remember this happening to Ashava.
This applies to The Wandering Death World boss too!!!
It’s not a bug. You think you’re doing no dmg because you don’t see the numbers, but what’s actually happening is that another player who’s fighting the world boss together with you has procced their caged heart of the barber wrathful heart. All dmg the boss takes is then absorbed and only the player who procced it will see the massive dmg number when it explodes.
Here’s the tooltip for the heart:
“Critical Strikes and all subsequent damage within [2.0 - 4.0] seconds is absorbed by your target. Then, the absorbed damage erupts onto surrounding enemies. Stored damage is increased by 11%[x] per second.”
It is pretty dumb (and ridiculously overpowered) that it absorbs dmg from everyone and not just the player who procced it. It also leads to situations like this where people who don’t know about the heart think their game is broken.
