Ignite auto spreading bug

Unread postby elenoka Thu Aug 25, 2016 5:24 pm

Hello guys, I found an ignite auto spreading bug. The bug is that when two or more fire mages are in team, only one mage's ignite works correctly on second target (seems randomly chosen by BLZ each time), while the other mage's ingnite seems missing and deal no damage ( or very little damage).
Take Tyrant Velhari boss fight as example. Often Ancient Enforcer is only damaged by auto-spearding ingite in Phase 2. It is almost impossible that one mage (ID:Fighture in pic below) tick only 9k ingite on Ancient Enforcer. Also is it impossible that ignite would tick discretely. Apparently there is a auto-spreading bug.

The bug is also posted on a Chinese forum by another mage. http://bbs.ngacn.cc/read.php?tid=9772163&_ff=182

I wonder whether you & Blz already know this bug. Coz it is really a bit loss of damage when ignite could not spread correctly.

PS, first time posting here, sorry for my poor English :oops:

That's actually a pretty bad bug. I'll check it out today as well. It can really, really mess up your dps, especially in mythic+ if you bring 2 mage and such a bug exists.

Yes, and worse is when the bug occurs, you can hardly put your ignite on the second target even if you directly cast pyroblast/fireball on the second target. That's depressing.

I'm very groggy so maybe I'm misreading this, but there's something weird here:

3 Mages on Tyrant

3 Mages on Council

It looks like we're seeing the same bug on Tyrant, but shouldn't we also experience that on Council? Ignite appears to have spread normally from Gurtogg to Jubei'thos.

We found some video and log evidence of this and are trying to get Blizz ear before Legion to get it fixed. Good find.

Nice find. But take care if you compare 2 target and 3+ target fights. 3+ targets are even more retarded.

Any update on this? I'm curious whether this is still occurring.
