Bug type: Monster

Brief bug summary: A few monsters in the game have broken hitboxes, meaning that they cannot be damaged while performing certain animations (excluding death, obviously).

More details:
The monsters in question include but are not limited to the following:

1. Electrophant (at the end of its attack)
2. Wolf Spider (while moving)
3-5. Haunted Sandstone, Haunted Graystone, and Haunted River Rock (if moving, standing, or attacking)
6-7. All forms of Livyatan, when using the water column attack, its flinch/knockback animation, and the seal attack (blue only)

I have recorded a video for reference:


Steps to reproduce:
1. Attack any of the above monsters while they perform the above animations
2. Note that your attacks will not deal damage, as if the monster does not exist.

Character name: irrelevant

Character level: irrelevant

Character job: irrelevant

World name: Bera (applies to any world though)

Date and time of the incident: April 30, 2020 at 10:00 PM EST (but prior to that as well)

    Just an addendum to this, the Cerberusian Gigantic Drill boss from NLC (including the Maple Tour variant) also has broken hitboxes when using a certain attack (the one where mini drones appear and fire lasers down at the ground)

    All of the mobs were fixed as of v214 except the Cerberusian Gigantic Drill, though it's kind of understandable since that one came late.

    Oh oops, we must have missed the last bit of the report.
    I apologize for that. Reported the Cerberusian Gigantic Drill hitbox issue as well.

    That's fine, I reported that one later than the others, so it's understandable. Thank you.
