How long had the two big guys been fighting?
If they had been fighting for a while, they may have done so much damage to each other that no matter what your team did, they couldn't do 10% of the total damage to Eochai.
Since Eochai is a bit weaker than Jack, he would've done less damage.
The Monsters regenerate fast enough so that their health bars appear full, but they might have taken a lot of damage before you got there.

Yep.. This has happened to me a couple times in the past as well.
Wow, I hadn't thought of that, Aett, thanks! I suspect you are correct, they were fighting a while (at least 10 minutes) while we /broadcast to put a team together to get them down, so plenty of time to do damage and still appear at full health 
Glad I'm not the only one, either, Panzerwaffen. I was scratching my head last night.

Yes, I like Force Fields.
Since neither GM can defeat the other, they should fix them to where they only look like they are duking it out (like with some of the thugs you see in the streets in other zones), but never actually doing any damage to each other.
That would certainly have saved us some time The spawn is useless if it fails to earn anyone credit!

But don't count ol' Punkinhead out. The last time I was in the area and saw them fighting, Jack suddenly went down like the proverbial jigsaw puzzle with a couple of pieces gone!
I agree that the spawn should be on a timer, and their "combat" should not do any real damage, to avoid situations exactly like the OP's.
I must also add that Croatoa is just a really cool zone, with some great stuff in it.
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."
Last night we killed Eochai in Croatoa and those who were in our group did not get the Pumpkin King Badge. Has anyone had this happen before?
I've never had this problem before. Thanks!
Here are the details:
Eochai and Jack are slugging it out at their spawn point.
1 group (mine) vs. both of them. No other groups or others around.
We tag and taunt Jack first and defeat him.
We grab Eochai next, defeat him.
Everyone gets the Jack badge. No one gets the Pumpkin badge. We bugged it.
Has anyon heard of this before? Did we do something off?
