arena bugged?

ok so im in rv...and i see a guy i know on his wp/ss tank.

we decide to go hit the arena against myfire/fire tank and smash each other until one is dead.

well the whole match i cant move his health and my fire tank is huge in damage and my fire attacks wouldnt budge his health at all..found it odd cause ive fought wp tanks before and never seen this happen

well with about 5 seconds left in the match i hit him and he looks like he dies.he goes through the animation of faceplanting but only with a full bar of health.

he tps back to his start point with all his toggles off and the match ends with me winning 1-0

so we wonder what the hell happened and i went through my combat logs and indeed as it says i killed him...but only with full health.

heres a ss of the kill shot from the games combat logs.




now the question is..has anyone dueled in the arena today and seen any issues or is there an issue with showing health bar moving and i actually did get him..im confused cause his fire resistance was poop and i got between f.e. and b.u. almost 200 damage bonus...that will move his health with no doubt

CONGRATS!! You just won by a technicality!!! What you expericenced is what is called sudden death. What is sudden death you might ask... some added 'feature' you cant turn off in the arena. If you are tied in any kind of match in the arena, and the match timer runs out, everyone in the match loses all but 1 HP. Theoretically what should happen is that the next person to land a hit wins.... What noramlly happens tho, if ppl are paying attention, is that yall will run off and try to heal up or phase....

GG sudden death

Sudden death + dots from an attack = auto win


Duel me.
I will work on my sig pic more when I have time.

It will always come into play if regulation time ends in a tie.

Also a fire melee tank won't kill a WP tank in a fight not even with dr on, most fire melee scrappers can't kill WP brutes in the zone so against a tank with higher values it wasn't going to happen. Provided his toon was pvp built that is.


The funny thing is, even though you seem like one of the whiners that got the changes made in the first place, you're probably still bad..------Macskull on Crop_of_shaolin

As i stated, Built Right.. Last fire/fire brute i fought on my wp/ss tank i literaly stood flat footed in his wake while he spammed the floor on fire, and at that time i didn't even have aidself yet because i didn't want to give up both travel powers. First and formost your going to be held after every KO blow just about save a few times , and possibly knocked up depending on investment. So all the tank had to do is step back and use aidself after ko blow. Also on a brute, unless you gimp yourself you can't even cut rttc off. And you just said you have a pve tank, so that says the level of warrrior you killed in itself, i'd delete a toon for less, losing to a pve built toon in a fight like that lol. But anyway i digress, after reading this thread, i turned right around and let it happen to me in the arena, i fought this dom and we we're a draw, the timer ran out and poof got me. And i read this way before we fought i'm so mad i forgot lol.

Edit: i wasn't talking a fight club style fight sorry, i don't know who would win that, i just know you won't get past aidself and SOW with a tanker fire melee, unless the combatant falls asleep at the wheel.
