Hey all, my guild just chewed through t6 sith raid but since it was such a boring and time consuming experience, we stepped back to t4 and that's where something strange happened:P1 was nothing special, ppl hopped in and did their damage, nothing unusual. P2 starts, Sion went down to ~80%... and then one guild member reported an oddity in our guild chat. He stated, that he just soloed the rest of p2 and is now in p3 with still the same squad and it seems as he could solo the entire phase with it. And he did. Overal dmg close to 150 millions (!!). Team used was CLS lead (no zetas o.O), Zolo, Thrawn (1zeta), r2 (2 zetas), Baze, all 7* and g12.So we expected somekind of bug, but since the whole raid was done quite fast, we decided to try t5 next... and the same guy soloed p1 with the same team this time, sitting at close to 100 Million dmg. Now we're all totally confused about what's happening right here, he even considers re-installing the game in case something broke on his end.Any ideas what is happening here??

Anyone get screenshots? There was a weird bug just reported on the AnswersHQ where a player basically got double his expected score (52M instead of the expected ~26M - which is fun since the whole raid has only 48M), so I wonder if something happened server-side.

Once upon a time, my guild used to let anyone join regardless of player lever. We had a new member that was in the level 60-70 range. The first raid we did after he joined was an HAAT. Back then, it would take us around 6-12 hours to finish, depending on participation. You can imagine my shock when this guy soloed the raid in around 15 minutes. Before I could get a screenshot one of my officers booted him. Moral of this story... Watch that guy like a hawk, or send pm to CG_Leviathan.

Sion is immune to TM reduction. I highly doubt, that tour guild mate would be able to solo that phase. I'd advice to collect evidence and then either report a bug or report him for cheating. If you continue to allow him to behave like this with out reporting either, it may be considered exploiting a bug or cheating by the whole guild.

If this lerson continues to do this and attempts to pass it off as a bug, I would report to CG_LucifersDaddy.

I don't think it's the display bug since the dmg was actually done. I also don't think he's actively cheating, since he was totally confused himself what was going on.We're all aware that this team usually shouldn't even come close to that much dmg.His observation so far was: using unbreakable will on baze lead to him getting no more significant TM. Also, Sion didn't seem to ever enrage, so basically a wet-noodle-Sion was hitting a beefed up baze all the time, while the rest could whack on Sion.Will see how the next sith raid goes after todays update, hope everything's back to normal.

That doesn't explain how he was able to solo the 3rd and 4th phases as well

Maybe this aoe from baze is bugged and it does 25% from boss hp pool? So 4 baze hits would kill everything xD

Alright, we started a new T5 raid this afternoon to see how the HP nerf works out practically. Most ppl tried 1-2 squads, everything looking good. Last time I checked phase 1 was down to ~30%. Then that member kicked in... and everything as before. Finished p1, soloed p2 and p3. He said there was no enrage activating in p2, which pretty sure leads to either a sever bug/glitch or...
Anyway, this is crazy. Screenshot attached, blacked out names to prevent public naming and shaming.

Enrage not kicking in is not an excuse. You can only stand alone 5 times. BoW will drain you down and you'll be killed.Thrawn and CLS protection isn't enough.Someone will get isolated and R2 can't stealth them. Thrawn can't help them. If I recall on that tier, my JTR team could only do 8-9 million on a good run.

I'd report. If he's telling the truth they can find the glitch.

Just sent those CG guys a pm. Enrage not kicking in would be an explenation though. If my JTR or FO squads wouldn't hit enrage sooner or later, they'd easily solo p2 on T4, since the latest nerf probably even on T5. But ofc, after 12(?) turns, enrage kicks in and Sion kills everyone (as intended).
