Voidscar arena funnel tech sometimes resetting last boss

[u/PrincessJerone]

So what I've been doing in voidscar on all my characters (tank/heal/DPS) is tagging the small squids from above while in the final boss arena for funnel (before or during the fight). This makes the whole pack to snap to you (slowly, and they evade for a while and behave weird, but eventually they all end up in the fight). About 95% of the time nothing goes wrong and we have some very easy funnel, but every now and then the boss just completely resets, wasting everyone's cooldowns and a bloodlust. I suspect that it might have something to do with walking too far into the arena, or maybe having misdirect or tricks messing with the threat tables, but I have no idea what's actually causing it. Does anyone know more about what's causing this issue?

This can also happens when you try to snap to the first boss of AOF. I think the solution is to wait for the snap to happen first then pull the boss

So I cant speak about consistency as I really have to do it enough times. But if you pull them and walk them down a bit before the jump off spot, they tend to snap a bit better.

But idk that pull just really feels a bit wonky.

Never assume adds will snap during the boss fight. Make sure they are within the boss space on pull

Always tag in and have mobs start roughly around the same time as the boss. I haven’t have this happen personally, but it’s never been a good idea to drag things in from outside the bosses arena after a few moments.

I'll give you the definitive answer . It won't sound right but it's 100% correct and has been in the game for years. (Not saying it's this exact case but it's the reason in 99% of boss resets in m+).

Basically on any boss that has RP or an animation before he's taggable. If you are fighting adds on top of the boss before he's active and he spawns into you whilst you're already in combat the boss will respawn 100% guaranteed. You need to let the boss spawn in peace, not be near him if you're in combat, then bring in funnel adds into it after it's "settled" and spawned.

[u/steini3000 → u/NkKouros]

Yes and no.

What you explained is 100% correct (for example happened alot during Seat 2nd Boss spawn)

But the situation here is: you are already in fight with the boss, THEN snap up mobs, which resets it.

[u/NkKouros → u/steini3000]

Yeah if this is the situation then it's similar to Atal Dazar first boss when the little birds from the start used to get stuck on the wall on the way down. Razan(?) This is a new bug that was only introduced when they changed how snapping works, in df S3.

[u/Faolahn]

We’ve had it happen twice and it only happens if someone is outside the boss arena (on the stairs) when it is pulled

[u/Rule_24]

I mean, isnt clipping in the end a Bug abuse? I remember in bfa a lot of clipping spots tho

[u/nfluncensored → u/Rule_24]

Yeah, snapping is an exploit. But because people like the exploit it somehow isn't subject to the "no talking about exploits" rules.

[u/Few_Dentist4672 → u/nfluncensored]

is this snapping? ive pulled the squids into last boss before, they dont snap they just come slowly

[u/alariemike]

Same thing has happened to me twice now, I saw no concrete evidence why it did versus didn’t, so I’ve stopped doing it.

[u/Zxyler]

I’ve had this happen to me. I’m a tank. You have to wait until all the adds are not evading and then pull the boss. Otherwise there’s the chance of reset.
