What is the bug?
- During bossing in final form, your character transform back into normal form randomly, and then back into final form few seconds later. During this process, you're softlocked, so you can't jump, attack, teleport, etc. You can also reclick final form to refresh the buff, so we effectively get 100% final form duration (but this doesn't mean we get more dmg, the soft locking occurs every few seconds).
When does it occur?
- I only noticed this occur so far when bossing in a party. When I run bosses solo, I seem to be fine. I'm not sure if server lag contributes, but its ESPECIALLY bad during guild pq. I also noticed this bug occuring after the Rise patch. Initially, it wasn't so bad, only occuring 2-3 times in the span of a boss fight. However, I've been noticing it getting worse and worse each day, and right now its really bad.
I heard Dual blades also been getting similar issues during bossing, specifically with their Asura skill. This started ever since a bit after Rise patch, anytime before our class was fine. Not sure about that though.
If we were to not use final form in a boss fight, we'd lose out on like 35-40% damage or so. We'd lose extra lines on skills, less % dmg on most of our skills, and no final damage + boss damage bonuses, along with losing the option for defender mode tankyness and teleporting.
