Fortified Affix Bug Fixed

With a hotfix that is now live to all realms, we just fixed an issue that caused non-boss creatures to inflict more damage than intended while the Fortified affix is active during Season 2.

This bug was new to Season 2 and specific to the Fortified affix.

Can you say how much more damage the bug was causing and specifically how much is reduced?

It was an extra 10% (+30% instead of +20%)

I’ll gladly take it. Thanks Kaivax.

Well time to pull bigger to make sure people still die to unavoidable damage

More great work by Blizzard.

You mean by Ortemis, the guy who actually discovered and mathed out this bug.

Blizzard never noticed it and wouldn’t have ever fixed it had a stink not been raised by the players.

It was sarcasm. Blizzard has improved some design aspects of the game over the last several years but every patch is a complete clown show now. Too cheap to hire enough people to actually review code.

Its really not though

“ive seen this in the +17 run the best players in the world did, trust.”
everyone dies
“c’mon guys this is the basic pull!”

Was this just a small bug where it was occasional, or was this just Fortified being an extra 10% damage across the board?

Im assuming this also would affect whenever fortified was involved and not just when it was solo?

Well, I’m gonna go out on a limb and assume most players never noticed it either. I certainly didn’t and am only learning that it was bugged as I read this post. :joy:
