[PC] BLOODROOT FORGE Final Boss Fight - CANNOT see lava visuals GROUNDBREAKING BUG

groundbreaking bug thats ruining the final boss fight of bloodroot forge. When we try to do hardmode, the ground lava will appear for the first 10 seconds but then after that it is completely invisible and will randomly shoot fire balls from unknown directions as the ground lava that spawns is completely invisible to the players. I believe this affects normal veteran mode too.

PLEASE investigate!

    we are doing it veteran non HM and we are having the same issue: the lava is visible for the first 10 seconds (more or less), then it disappears, very annoying.
    please we can't do it this way :sweat:

    Did the quest for the first time yesterday, so its NOT normal that the fire balls attack from nowhere? XD

    Yeah I guess that would have made it easier if I could have seen where not to step

    Will not be running Bloodroot till this is fixed. Too much of a pain. Super lucky we got the helm for a friend while bugged, but not going to bother again.

    Was in vet and it happens every pull. Repeatable, and not fun.

    Bloodroot? More like Buggedroot. Makes this pledge basically a skip and utterly worthless.

    I would also say HM is essentially impossible because you can't know where not to step to avoid the increasing amounts of lava.

    Can we get an achievement for trying despite the bug? the bug has bugged me so much it made me buzz off. Maybe the achievement could be called " ticked off" or something.

    Yeah, I tried doing this dungeon on vet HM and vet no HM for 10 hours straight when it was the pledge a few days ago.
    It was impossible to beat due to the invisible lava pool bug. Tried numerous set ups and numerous group members / composition. Couldn't do it. We submitted several in-game bug reports, so hopefully a fix is in the works.
    Tried beating it from noon EST to 10 PM EST that day.
    What a waste of time it was. :neutral:

    Maybe we should have all tried Ice staffs. Do any armour sets give a 5 piece bonus of a gigantic ice cube appearing out of thin air that's also invisible? That would be cool.

    If I end up getting Bloodroot forge as a daily pledge in it's broken state, I'm gonna slap Gilirion the Redbeard with a Bull Netch tentacle.

    Same here as well. PC EU live. Lava is only visible for a very short time, then becomes invisible ... an virtual, invisible deathzone.

    Please fix this.

    Can confirm, this bug still exists as of last night, 06Jun2018. We completed vet Bloodroot, but with a stupid amount of wipes because of the inability to see the lava which was killing us. This is literally dungeon breaking.

    Whoa there Apache_Kid, easy with the logic you're likely to educate someone if you're not careful.

    I and my crew bug reported it in game and I'm echoing a bug report in here too.

    It's not just one person, it's not a draw distance, and it's also random.

    In addition the quenching blood doesn't always remove it. My entire team watched as a visible lava pool was quenched by the fountain and then an invisible geyser from the exact same place started chucking lava at me (while the quenching blood was raining down on it) After cool down another teammate quenched the geyser a second time. We ended up using the fountain three times on that spot which prevented us from using the fountain on other lava geysers that had been spawned by the boss in that same time.

    The only way to make the geysers visible was to die, then you can see them.
