Game Mechanics: Keeper of Souls Poof

We killed keeper of souls last night and the corpse instantly poofed on death. I'm not sure how to replicate, but is a troublesome bug!

You sure someone didn't just ninja loot it?

I figured out why.

Thetan · #4 02-26-2011, 01:02 PM

So what happened? Inquiring minds wanna know.

I'll let you know after the GMS fix it.. All the clues are posted in various threads.. I just did the math.

This is happening to various bosses, not just Keeper of Souls. Hope it gets fixed soon.

So apparently there's also a bug now where pets stay around even if their owner dies/gates. If this is true, this could account for why this bug happens in cases where the remaining pets do the majority of the damage or get a killshot. As it stands if an NPC gets a killshot on another NPC, or if it does 51%+ damage, then the corpse poofs (this is classic). Maybe ownerless pets are being treated as NPC's in this same way. That's just my theory.

I presented the same theory at the time.

Spiroc Lord poofed on us on Saturday... And of course he didn't respawn either. And there have been double Spiroc Lords up nearly every weekend (but that's unrelated).
