Invisible Lava In bloodroot Forge

On the final boss in bloodroot, there are invisible pools of lava that shoot out projectiles, that make beating the boss inpossible. They do a ton of damage, to the player and are usually around the corners of the map. They can be purge with the blood thirst thing, but it's difficult cuz there usually around the pillars.

    Can confirm. Did it today and every single pool became invis after 3 seconds of hitting its target.

    It seemed to land -> form in lava -> then do the "cleanse" animation where it shrinks to the ground. The lava is still there though.

    You can cleanse it. Took over 2+ hours and finished it, but it made vet non HM mode a *** as you would just dodge roll into a random pool of lava. This needs some fixing.

    Submitted as a bug report and if needed recorded the fight for laughs and you can see the invis pools.

    Can confirm. Summerset introduced this bug, I believe. Since when Summerset dropped, I was in Bloodroot Forge twice, with different people, and both times the lava visual on final boss dissapeared for all of us, but it was still there.

    It's doesn't just make the final boss in Bloodroot forge harder, it makes it literally impossible. When the boss' HP is into single digits there's several invisible lava pools that will oneshot near enough anyone. This is when we were all pretty on top of quenching the lava pools ( we also had several attempts on hard mode but Christ I'm not that much of a sadist). It's these kind of bugs that make people want to leave ESO, this isn't an inconvenient bug, this is a game breaking bug, like being feared through the walls in Crypt of Heart. If if hotfixes can be applied to Geysers where it's a bit of a minor inconvenience, I feel like clipping through the wall, or animations not showing up a more severe and imperative bug to fix. Also vampires tend to dislike having their arses BBQ'd into a crispy bake. As someone who has played a large number of games in their life, this game has far, far too many bugs on a daily bases and a more proactive nature needs to be put into place to try and sort the long list out.

    We cleared it second try last night with this bug, so it's not impossible, it's just super duper hard mode ;)

    Consoles should receive the fix in their next patch. We had same issue on PC and they fixed it over a week ago.

    On PC the problem persists although intermittently. In our hard mode attempts last night there first few lava pools we're visible, but as soon as we had the boss' clones spwan in some of the lava pools they dropped became invisible. I bug reported but our hm attempts were doomed as soon as the invisible lava pools spawned. Any chance we'll see another pass of bug fixes targeting the lava soon?
