Aggro after trash wipe bug w/ Frost Mage

Support Bug Report

We still love our Frost Mage, Nela.

Update to this bug report (this is me contributing to the converstation!):
Though a little less now that it happened again today (03/17) on a 14 NW and ruined that key. It’s better knowing that timing a key isn’t about completing a key in time, but rather not wiping a single time.

We just need to find a way to replicate the bug and make it work to player’s advantage - then it’ll get hot-fixed within hours.
It’s like Clark Kent and Superman: If the bug only negatively impacts players, Blizz is the mild-mannered Indie gaming company that just can’t seem to find the issue. Find a way to exploit the bug, though, and the mild-mannered Indie gaming company will step into a phone booth and come out the multi-billion dollar gaming company able to fix any bug in a single bound and wield the heaviest of ban hammers.

I pretty consistently see a similar aggro bug, only while playing frost mage, out in the open world. The Bastion world quest Let’s Get Ready to Humble tends to see me kill Archilon, Epilon, and/or Straticus multiple times. They re-aggro onto me after I’ve already defeated them once. They suddenly decide to attack again after resetting. I don’t even have to be in combat with anything for one of them to suddenly charge me from a distance to have another sparring match.

This is not just some still active Blizzard or Frozen Orb that happens to continue dealing damage as the mage respawns.

At the current rate I think finding a way to make this bug exploitable might be the only way to prevent it from becoming permanently ignored the way failing blinks have been ignored.
