Matron Double adds?WTF?

Brallin · 10-25-2006, 02:09 PM

We have been having very good progress on this mob getting her to 19% and the next attempt we were even more solid then the previous when we had her to 59% the adds spawned double. Well that pretty much fucked us over. Why the fuck is this happening? I know it cant be intended so what triggers this bug?

I have no idea myself

But we were taking turns pulling with SD last night, and sometimes multiple sides of adds would spawn for both us and them. My guess is it has to do with yelling the encounter maybe

if you yell the encounter the adds spawn endlessly until it resets, same with the second epic.

We NEVER yell the encounter WTF do you think we are homo or something? Wait dont answer that.

We have gotten the endless adds when the matron had to chase someone downthat got ported or whatever but this is just in the middle of fighting her. When the adds spawn we get 2 fucking sets which pretty much means we wipe. This DOES NOT happen every time.

We've had this happen to us on occasion. Just out of the blue she spits out four adds instead of two. No yelling, nothing sketchy, just seems to catch on that script and trigger twice. We bugged it but seeing as how its only happened a few times in over a month it's probably not something they will be able to duplicate and fix.

Happened on 3-4 pulls for us last night.

Its a bug. If the person with agro gets ported and the adds run to that person, who is a good distance away, the second set of adds will spawn when the first set is out of range. This creates problems when the second set runs back.

Nah it wasnt anything like that when it happened for us. Matron was tanked stable in her normal position, then out of the blue 4 adds popped all at the same time.

Hasnt happened to us in a long time though.

I remember reading a post a few weeks ago about this. Supposedly if someone is standing where the matron spawns when she spawns, 4 adds will pop at a time instead of 2. Have someone with see invis and see stealth keep an eye on the druid ring to make sure no one's doing this.

Having a person outside the locked encounter stand in the middle of the druid ring and that causes adds to spawn - dumbest bug I have heard in a while. I dont understand how anything people do outside the Matron's locked encounter can effect her. If that is true my hat is off to SoE for a total clusterfuck.
