Hailstorm causes Frost Shock to hit enemy players flagged for pvp

I always have warmode off and don’t engage in pvp. While doing the prepatch event there were two enemy players who were flagged for pvp in the fray. During the Hogger fight I suddenly became flagged for pvp and immediately died to the enemy players.

This is actually a bug I reported back at the start of Dragonflight, but could never be sure what attack first hit them due to there being so much going on and cluttering up the combat log. I figured it was some kind of passive aoe, but enhancement has few of those. This time though I actually managed to find what first hit them, and sure enough, it’s a cleaving Frost Shock.

I can’t say for sure if it happens every time or just intermittently. I feel like it must be the latter as I’d been fighting for a little bit before it happened.

Just for the heck of it I’m going to see if I can find my old but report post about this. Let’s bring it full circle!

This bug is still a major issue. It has been for almost two years now.
