I've done the encounter a few times on normal and hard.

 

Last night after 4 tries on the final boss, we gave up. We've done it before without any issue.

 

What would happen is the final stage would trigger (Mentor's green beam & bombs etc) halfway through the first phase... specifically after the first power core was destroyed.

 

I guess the question is: is the encounter bugged for anyone else? It never did that on hardmode for us before, so i wonder if we should just avoid it or try it again?

Its always done that for us, he only does it for a little while though, not like the end where he does it until you kill him. We get it every single time a power core is destroyed.

ive done it a few times now and confirmed with online sites, the green laser and bombs are final phase when you have to burn him down... otherwise it's just turrets, cores+turrets, guardian, rinse and repeat.

 

i suppose if its only temporary i can try it again... it was hard to heal given the stage and everyone being spread out. if its temporary i think it can be weathered.
