The Mystery of the Invincible Minion!

[EmperorSteele]

So I (lvl 50+ Mind/Kin) was farting around Grandville yesterday when I happened across a level 47 Fire Tarantula that was precariously close to a high ledge. So I engaged in a moment of dickishness by lining up a shot with my Nemesis Staff to make it careen over the edge. Funny thing, though, he took damage from the staff, but no fall damage.

 

Huh.

 

Well, I decided to expedite his expiration by attacking him.

 

It didn't hurt him. He was taking damage, the orange numbers were up over his head, he was getting held, and I was recording damage in my combat log and my damage-dealt badge tracker... but he wasn't losing health. Hell, he was REGENING health! So I threw everything at him: AoEs, Lore pets, Judgement... NOTHING would kill this guy! I finally gave up and decided to see what he'd do if I stopped holding him. He... ran away, opened a manhole cover and jumped in.

 

I reported this to a GM who told me to send a support ticket. The support response was to post on the forums to see if anyone else has seen this issue, so here I am.

 

Anyone else notice anything like this?
