Multiplayer: Firestorm knockdown causing key not dropping

When an Elementalist casts Firestorm, enemies are knocked down. Apparently when an enemy that is knocked down is killed by another player, the game does not register the death and thus does not drop ...

This is being looked into, thanks for the post. Non-registered animal deaths seem to be the main cause, but any extra information helps.

For now, a "workaround" is to have the party host leave, thus forcing a migration and starting the area again. If you're in a private match then they can join back on you. It's hardly ideal, but it might help when playing with friends.

I play with my son so I usually host the game.. guess what, I ended up wasting almost 2 hours of my game time due to this horrendous bug. Yes, I as the host leave but in doing so I then don't get any exp or bonus gold and have to wait for however long for the game to finish (so he can at least get his exp) so I can rejoin him. THEN you have to wait forever for match making to work and get another full team. Even worse when You finally have a decent team the bug comes up and ruins it.

And yes, my son is playing an elementalist so that might explain why it was happening so much. In fact I had to quit more games then I finished because of this bug and basically I quit playing because I was sick and tired of getting cheated out of experience by this game breaking bug.

This needs to be fixed ASAP.
