2x elite monsters not applying in Phantom Forest

Bug type: Functionality

Description:
One of today's Sunny Sunday perks is that when an elite monster spawns, a second elite monster spawns at the same time.
I saw this happen earlier while grinding in Black Heaven: Black Heaven Junction 1.
But while killing Corrupted Masters in Phantom Forest: Forgotten Path, Stormcaster Caeneus appeared alone.
I was able to complete a surprise mission to kill 3 elite monsters by killing him, so he does count as an elite monster.
I'm guessing it doesn't spawn 2 elites in Phantom Forest because the elites there aren't enlarged copies of regular monsters.

Is this intended behavior?

Edit: I've seen a rune of darkness properly spawn 3 elites before, and that 2 will appear with an elite boss.

    Phantom forest, absolute unmitigated dumpster fire that it is, is a non-kms map. Things of this nature generally do not apply to non-kms maps. So while it's unfortunate that you can't use this to push through the dailies in that hellhole a little faster, it's not an outright bug or malfunction of game systems.
