With the new anti-KS patch, the boss remembers the damage from people who die. If a group wipes, the mob just wait for the group members to run back from the leystone and stays in combat the whole time.
I've seen this with deadroot placeholders, someone will fight them, die and run back from the farm and continue fighting without the mob resetting. I've also seen this on a lot of other red bosses who never resets anymore.
We sort of had a code before that we only engage a boss mob if it resets after a group wipes but apparently, does not apply anymore.
Admin, can you shed some light?

#2Hey there, in theory it should reset if everyone wipes, let me know if you have any more details so we can check it out.
Thanks!
Thanks!

#3It doesn't happen. Two people were fighting deadroot disciple, both of them died and resurrected from leystone. The mob didn't reset to 100% and just stood there in combat position (with the staff on his shoulder).Hey there, in theory it should reset if everyone wipes, let me know if you have any more details so we can check it out.
Thanks!
Also happened with Brutus, there were 4 people and he never reset even if the last person died and others were not in vicinity.

#4Hey thanks for the details - does this always happen or just sometimes?
Re: Does a mob ever reset anymore?
#5As far as I recall, ever since the anti-ks patch, I've never seen a boss reset anymore. Maybe because a lot more people are using idols but still, there were several instances where the group clearly resurrected at the leystone.Hey thanks for the details - does this always happen or just sometimes?
In any case, there is no chance for anyone losing to a boss now. The patch and unlimited use of idols saw to that.

#6Ive mentioned this before I'm tired of watching a group who can't tank the boss "spawn run" it (it's what I call it) keep losing bosses cause we take the time to prepare when these guys spawn run it with 30 clan mates.

#9yai keep seeing clans spawn run these bosses otherwise they wouldnt be able to kill without ksing us while we tank. This is enabling people who dont even have full warden to be able to have metoric.

#10We actually use a similar term, Zerg Rush. And Nod, you prepare? Funny, doing a boss with 5 people or so with no druid is much preparation right? We don't actually wipe out, theres always a few alive so we run back, which is an alternative for people who don't spend 60k plat, just saying.Our term is zerging or rez-killing.
Never happened to us before, infact sometimes it just resets on us automaticalt maybe because of lag idk but yeah.
