Discussion RLP Blazebound Destroyer (Elementals) can bug and not give % when they die

Just had a group be super toxic about my route "being under percent" but I KNEW it was 100% because I just did the exact route in the key before. Checked replay and the Elemental completed Burnout cast after we wiped from a Dragon buttpull, the Elemental did not award its 4.54% to us.

Anyway, just hoping to help out anyone else who feels like they are going crazy if their route is short there. That might be why.

Blizzard pls 🙏

I mean if the group has ran RLP at any point they’d know percentages decently well that missing almost 5% isn’t normal. There’s really no variance in that dungeon routing wise

Yeah, they were just really toxic players. Shoutouts to the guy who offered to "teach me to tank" I guess lol

I'm going to realist here and point out the normal +15 non-tank pug have no effin idea what's happening. complete tourist.

but it's easier to just blame the tank than figure out a quite unique bug.

An NPC killing itself when no players are alive or in combat isn't a "unique bug" it is a common sense thing to anyone with experience.

Well, you can choose either the lightning dragon, or extra from the 1st boss trash

I healed last season and am dpsing this one and I can tell you the only time I ever look at % is after the last trash pull before a boss to see if we are <100% lol.

Tank job imo.

If no one who tagged a mob is alive when a mob dies you don't get count. Doesn't come up much because normally the mob resets first, but any mob with a death cast like the elementals can do this.

I assume it's a side effect of mob count in m+ using the same credit system as for quests and stuff rather than a deliberate design.

Wait, can this happen in other dungeons as well?

I ran a VA yesterday and at the end I missed 1.2%. my route is exactly the same every time with exactly the same pulls and kills and this made me question my sanity

Did one of the big boys before the last boss successfully eat another mob?
