In doing 10m Heroic Maloriak last night our guild ran into an issue where whenever Maloriak cast Flash Freeze on our elemental shaman it would instantly break the Flash Freeze and kill them. Upon reviewing the logs, it appears that the trigger is lightning shield where whenever a lightning shield charge procs, either on the flash freeze or maloriak, it will instantly kill the flash freeze.

Our shaman died instantly like that but has 0 lightning shield damage on the log. Could be a log issue though.
Happening to us in 25m, most flash freezes kill us instantly with nobody attacking the flash freeze. The flash freeze happens and then it automatically shatters within seconds. Checking logs and nobody is doing damage to it.
This happened to us last night and it was a pain. Flash freeze shattering after <3s, impossible to save people, no one dealing damage to them.
Same issue was happening in my guild’s raid yesterday for Heroic 25 man. Maloriak would flash freeze a player and shatter would go off ~0.5 seconds later. Nothing in logs recorded anyone doing damage to the ice tomb. It didn’t even look like our boomkin was casting starfall when the flash freeze went out and I didn’t see any other proximity AoE ability used near time of death.

This is still happening this lockout. Same dumb deaths to insta flash freeze
Hunters are getting 1 shotted too. We dont have ret aura nor any damage reflection so i dont know what could be it, but its really annoying. We are also doing the long version of the fight with 2 waves of adds and having 2 blue phases with people dying is disgusting. Please fix this
Apparently this mechanic is a root so if its on you, press a defensive.
Pally can also freedom it to remove it off anyone.
You have 2.5s so there is time to react and press an instant cast. Priest on point with bubble can save someone.
Slow strat is pretty cringe but if youre doing that anyway maybe pop stam flasks on everyone? lol.
So you can work around this bug.
you can’t work around this bug when something like lightning shield or molten armor procs the damage – 0.4 seconds from application > explosion isn’t enough time for any human to react to the debuff on frames & get a bubble off
This happened to us… we turned of ret aura then it stopped (at least for 1 blue phase, just tried it)
nvm, 2nd time priest died for no reason
Yeah it just blows up automatically after a very short delay. Still bugged of course. Blizz is too busy with SoD.
You have to turn off anything that causes reflective damage from anyone in the party. Turn off ret aura, lightning shields, thorns, molten armor, and if a disc is running reflective shield for some reason that will pop it too.
The work around is as soon as blue phase starts, turn all that off. Can turn them back on once phase is over.
It doesn’t matter, it goes off anyway.
