Xy Acolyte’s on Normal in our raid ID are casting Hyperlight Ascension extremely quickly (like at 20-30 energy, NOT 100) in our raid, and we are unable to progress as a result.

We are seeing the same thing in ours.
Very weird.
same as well … wednesday when we attempted xy… we got him to 15% overall… now we are stalled at the first add wave because they are casting too quickly

Same thing, happening to us tonight. They start to cast hyperlight at 100 energy, but they are gaining energy at like 10 energy per tick…so about 10 seconds before they start casting…

On Artificer Normal, the Acolytes are getting 100 energy almost instantly, and casting the raid-wide detonation. Also the bombardments came down in a torrent and wiped us almost instantly.

We are also seeing Xy’mox reach 100 energy in about 10 seconds. We also see 270k incoming raid-wide damage immediately on transition to Phase 2.

I killed in my main group and Energy gain was about 2-3 per second, giving us a comfortable 33-50sec (+cast time) to kill, while now in my second raid group they are gaining at 6+ energy a second causing us to have only 15 seconds to kill them. Something is definitely off.

Maybe they fubar’d the raid scaling. We had 23 in the group earlier in the week, and 18 today, and today the adds were transitioning at least 2-3 times faster.
Just posting to say - same. Acolytes transform to Archons almost immediately, making the add phase impossible for us.
We had 21 on Wednesday and 20 tonight, I do not think the scaling is an impact.
I mean, this cropped up about 2-3 hours ago, something had to change. Otherwise we would have seen this thread before.
Hotfixed no doubt.
“Incorrectly tuned the Xy’mox encounter to be possible.”
Yes! This was happening to us Monday evening as well. It was working right on Saturday. Blue Plz!
No kidding, we almost killed him Wednesday, came back last night and thought maybe we accidentally set it to Mythic. Went and 1 or 2 shot the rest of the bosses that weren’t gated by Xy’mox.
Last night, Artificer Xy’Mox was hotfixed to “Fixed issue where the visual effect of Xy Acolyte’s Massive Blast rendered smaller than the actual area of effect.” This was announced at about 11pm EST, which was about an hour and a half after this thread was created.
My best guess is that when that hotfix went in, it also broke Energy generation and the damage output in that phase. I have a feeling that the reason we saw it before the hotfix was announced is that Blizzard deploys hotfixes before they are announced, so that players are not upset by being told a bug is fixed which is, in their experience, not fixed.
Relatively few probably noticed it, because it’s the last day of the Raid Week and Artificer is, for most, the 3rd boss. Most raid teams have probably already killed him earlier in the week.
So hopefully this is fixed today, and everything is peachy! If not, it would be erasonable to conclude that this thread will get a lot more active around 9pm EST. 
You’d think they could increase an AOE graphic size without increasing energy regeneration.
