Era- BWL Techies bombs - Pure Damage instead of fire

WoW Classic WoW Classic Bug Report
1

Techies bombs used to be resistible fire damage.
Now with 330 fire resistance gear, none of their Fire damage is resisting.
It says fire damage in the combat log.

I enjoyed stepping up to be the techies tank with this set on, now I’m just getting melted.

Can you post the combat log or screen shot it?

I will do screen shots on this weeks run 4 yall

the fire damage from the blackwing technician’s grenades has never been partially resistable, aberhamster
Blackwing Technicians are “tanked” by drawing their attention and then running circles around them, so the bombs never hit the tank

I do bob and weave. That still works
But fire damage that isn’t resistible isn’t fire damage- it’s pure damage.

On the “What happened to me” tab it shows bomb, 500(Fire)

I would usually walk in and just take the brunt/use LOS because of the resistance and not have to run around in circles as much.

I was assuming that something changed with the SOD changes,

Maybe I’m wrong though

I’m not sure what “pure” damage is. It’s just fire damage that can’t be resisted. I just looked up a log from 2019 and none of the bomb hits are resisted whatsoever.

I would say pure damage is such that can’t be resisted.

Fire damage that can’t be resisted with 320 Fire resist?? Why would they make elemental damage that is unresistable? Imagine throwing a fire bomb at rag and it does full damage.

Thanks for checking your logs- I am not the best at interpreting damage taken- and I had a hard time trying to find the specific points where techs bombs were thrown.

I am sorry that I assumed that it may have been a SOD carry over of changes.

I remember doing it a year ago feeling very tanky wearing the fire resist.
Lately I feel like every bomb that is hitting me for full force damage.

For funzys: Can you give any more examples of un-resistible elemental damage?
