Insert pun about bugged bugs here.

Unread post by Ijomi »

Has the Bug Trio in AQ40 been hotfixed out of their glitched immortality yet, does anyone know? I hope they do it soon, I'd love to take Kri out of my stables.

Let me give Runty a good home. :hug:

I went in on tuesday to tame one of them the greenish blue one "princess" and my friend joined me and grabbed the red one Vem. They was a pain to tame mainly cause the blue bug's attack has a random chance to knock ya down. But I finally got it on the fifth attempt.

They wasnt doing the wont do anything bug..however vem has this odd bug where when he is about to die his hp resets. xD Not sure about princess she never got that low for me.

That's the glitch I'm talking about, the "immortality" bug. I heard about it before I actually USED Kri for anything, thank goodness. But now I have this big, noble, needlenosed brainbug that I can't play with for fear of this glitch and all the potential exploits.

It seems like it could be a HUGE issue, and hunters who are unaware could be wrongfully accused of exploiting just by taking it into an instance, even if it never legitimately comes near death. I'd think it would warrant a hotfix asap, but I've seen or heard nothing.

At least Huhuran definitely dies. :C What an awful thing to be relieved about.

Well now, I am currently using my so called "immortal bug brain" but at the same time I keep it from dieing as best as I could by making sure mend pet is up.

I'm afraid to do that, to be honest. There's no way of knowing what Blizzard would define as an "exploit". Now, another poster here said a GM told him it was fine to tame them, but advised against using them until the issue was addressed. The whole thing just makes me jumpy.

The thing is, it's not *just* the brain bugs with this problem. I've seen *all* my pets have this glitch at times. So if you're just worried about the glitch, you'll either have to avoid taking out any pets whatsoever in case it activates... or not worry about it because it's universal.

I brought my Orange bug from AQ40 to Kara and let 3 horses beat on it until it died. So guess it's fixed cuz it died. Revived with little health.

Talent point bug exists. Unable to put points in MOBILITY because it requires a point in DIVE. Unfortunately it has DASH and not DIVE.

Yup. I too can confirm this immortality bug has been squashed, thankfully.
