Emperor of corpses AOE bug

Just lost a HC char to this, the AOE attack indicator the boss does to typically force you close to him doesn’t cover the entire arena visually, so it looks like you can choose to either approach him or run to the edge of the arena to avoid it except, if you try to do that, the DOT will keep ticking and kill you.

The problem with the two aoes is that they are raised off the ground so the angle of the camera makes it look as though you are safe when you aren’t.

I assume by dot you mean the dark red phys degen pools that spawn at the corners? These do a % of current hp and therefore can’t kill you but they can make it a lot easier for everything else to kill you.

Nope, it wasn’t the pools of blood that killed me. I went to the edge of the arena, outside of any AOE and my HP slowly ticked till I was dead, nothing could’ve touched me outside of the AOE indicator not showing that it’s a fullscreen effect

The only thing I’m aware of that affects the outer section of the arena is the second AoE which you’re then meant to move back in towards the boss to avoid. I’ve never tried having a look at what happens if you move further out.

Evidently, this. That’s the AOE I’m referring to, the visual indicator of which just stops past a certain point, even though you can go further and you’ll still be in range.

Ah, fair enough, though it sounds more like feedback than a bug.

yeah, that’s exactly where I posted it and was told it’s a bug and I should report it
