Why are suppressors mobs stopping my hydras from damaging them while they are inside the suppressors bubble while I’m out and they only do damage while I’m inside ??
Why are you using Hydra?
Just tested this myself, can confirm suppressor mobs become IMMUNE to hydra while you are outside the bubble and hydra is in the bubble.
Dunno about OP but I use Hydra (skill) and as a far better Fire Bolt Enchantment. I’m looking for that weapon so I can have 3 hydras. Once I get the Legendary 20% enchantment node. That 3rd cast of hydra will appear after spend 167mana vs 200.

Yes I’m doing a summons build this season and the suppressor mob have changed for the hydra skill and it is painful to play. Hydra use to damage them before the patch 1.1.0a where they added.
Fixed an issue where monsters with the Suppressor Affix would be immune to damage from abilities that started initially outside the immunity circle (Ex: when a Barbarian started a Whirlwind cast before getting within proper range of the Suppressor monster).
Good ol blizzard first it was whirlwind now hydras lol this dev team seems more incompetent everyday now
yes they seem to enjoy fixing one problem to create anther.
not just hdra but chain lighting as well. there will be 10 mobs inside the field but it always chains to something off screen and just phizzles
they should just remove supressor and damage aura reduction from the game. it causing more problems then its worth and even when its working correct is not fun in any way
The point of suppressor is to make sure you can’t actually avoid damage and play as a glass cannon for fun, I think…
Its only meant to stop attacks from outside the bubble not attacks from inside.
If it was an intentional change it would of been included in the patch notes. this is just a side effect of the change they made for barbs.
Because suppressor uses the caster position when the spell is casted
It happened with Barbarian WW, if you started WW outside, and then went inside, you would do no damage
I dont know if it keeps happening, i am not playing
Cast hydra from inside and it will work
As soon as you move your character outside the bubble they are immune to the damage.
ill be inside blasting them with chain lighting but it tries to hit a monster outside the bubble and wont bounce back making them immune when im right on top of it
Then its a new bug, or maybe they want summmons to work like that? WHo knows, everything can happen with Blizzard
Just shinning sum light on the issue ATM
Well it’s the same bug. They didn’t fix it, just bandaided.
Before origin snapped the caster position where you started the cast.
now it updates the origin constantly, so it moves with the caster.
This works with barbarian whirlwind, but not with summons. I guess necro minions face the same problem.
The origin should always be the instance that does the damage. In this case the hydra.
