Title, Bumblebear charge applies damage when the animation starts, instead of when the charge actually begins.
See video evidence: Twitch
I was baiting the charge to submit the bug report that’s why I didn’t have hp/reap on (though I would’ve died with it anyway).
I wasn’t able to test if the damage is numerous instances over time, or once off because I didn’t have reap cheat death, but my suspicion also is that it’s coded as a dot because it will 1-shot me out of reap also.
Supposedly t-rex charge is the same (I haven’t been 1-shot by it yet).
