Gallywix Fight Bugged Out - Boss Stopped Performing Mechanics

During Gallywix fight on normal difficulty tonight, my guild and I came across two bugs:

  1. Gallywix does not drop stacks of Trick Shot on tank swap, he will get all the way to 10 regardless of who has aggro and give all 10 stacks to the current tank. Sometimes the boss will actually reach 13-14 stacks before he uses 10 and drops to 3-4 and applies the debuff.

  2. When the boss transitioned at 50% to his intermission phase where he puts a shield on himself and you need to break it and interrupt him, he never started the cast for the raid wipe spell. Instead, he stood still and punched me, the main tank, for 4.5 minutes straight until we killed him.

I have the whole fight recorded and the log file and am willing to submit both to help fix this bug.

We saw the same behavior tonight - Trick Shot was not resolving and resetting on tank swaps. He would just keep counting up until he felt like it. Saw upwards of 14+ stacks at some points in the fight.

Can confirm our guild saw this behavior too. We also experienced a weird error where Gallywix would sometimes switch back after a taunt.

Here is a link to the log of our kill (removes the spaces), set to damage done by the boss so you can see he just stopped doing anything other than melee for the rest of the fight.

Update: I was tanking as my prot warrior on our fight and this behavior also happened on the final boss in Cinderbrew Meadery. She stood still and just punched for the last 35 seconds of the fight.

We also had the taunt issues and stacks not dropping.

He would look initially for the taunt, swap back, attack again, then swap again back to the person who had just taunted. Stacks would not drop here.

#1 happened to us Tuesday night on Heroic.

Looking over logs and vod from tonight’s Gally and we’re very confused about how this mechanic is supposed to work.

Tank swapping doesn’t seem to trigger a Trick Shot or drop stacks from the boss. The boss definitely gets up to 14 stacks at one point, consumes 10 when Trick Shot is finally cast, leaving 4 stacks still on the boss.

Maybe we’re missing something, maybe its a bad read of the tooltip on our part. My expected behavior of this would be:

  • Taunt swap triggers Trick Shots, consuming current stacks, firing at previous or current target
  • When stacks get to 10, Trick Shot is triggered and stacks are consumed.

My only thought is that maybe Trick Shot has some lower spell queue priority from the other abilities that Gallywix casts, and its causing stacks to continue to build and damage events to be pushed off until it can find a place in the rotation to finally cast Trick Shots.

Not sure, but atm, if you look at logs of the fight, the 2nd tank that gets stuck with this being triggered on them most often is getting slapped pretty good.
