reddriver Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I was doing EV and killing soa and we got him to the final 30 perevent and he would juat dissapear and go away and we would have to restart the fight. Anyone elae having that provlem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CIKShock Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 We only had problems with him vanishing if our tank died on the way down (even if he was rezed at the bottom) or if the person who had aggro at the start stealthed thus breaking combat. If you have an assassin tank make sure they don't stealth at the bottom... even to rez before the boss makes it down. Our problem was with the platforms vanishing after a wipe. Annoying, because you have to reset the instance. We'd be waiting for the platform that we know is supposed to be there but its like the boss shattered it instead of knocking it down a level.

thorizdin Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 We ran it last night and didn't have that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefMike Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 He has bugged on us like that before, but ours was a heartbreaker at like 5%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asperoth Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) It's happened to us on two different occasions in the last phase when the main tank was put in a mind trap. It's like he's attempting to maintain aggro on someone who is no longer there and so he just resets himself.

eNcFireWraith Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 You need to have someone taunt the boss if your main tank gets mind trapped or loses aggro due to a mechanic. Otherwise he goes poof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicholaiJS Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Statement: We've had this happen probably 2-3 times. I don't know what causes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamnoobplzhelp Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 this has happened to us multiple times. just have to exit area and start over. My favorite is when he's tossing someone around and then you have to jump to the next level. That person will be bugged out for the rest of the fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keii Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) According to some people this is a feature and not a bug. Edited January 31, 2012 by Keii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellFlame Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 its because the tank gets mindtrapped and soa tries to hit him and (evade). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kabutopps Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 According to some people this is a feature and not a bug. Man, gotta love working as intended stuff right? Pro tip - have your tank not lose aggro. You're welcome. Bonus tip - like already stated by another non baddie in this thread...a smart person in your raid with non downs reflexes can taunt him before he despawns. Thank the other guy, he said it first.

Cause there's totally this thing called a threat table that isn't being utilized correctly. Because your tank getting whisked away to another plane of existence (intended or not) causing the boss to mysteriously vanish is totally a working mechanic. Stop being an apologist. There has never ever been a boss fight where the boss despawning because of another boss mechanic is working as intended. YES, there is a way around that particular scenario, but it's still a bug.

Hardcora Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) Another nice feature discovered last night. We got sevral 1-5% wipes on Soa NM and after our last wipe the upper platform was gone. We tried resetting, regrouping and switching leadership... no success. that sucks if you are so close before killing the 5th Nightmare Boss... and so so close before getting your useless Rakata Weapon Tokens Edited January 31, 2012 by Hardcora Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
