Update: Boss appears to reset if too many people die or more people join the fight after it has started

Nah it happens regardless of player numbers or fight length. It always happens between two attacks.

It's adds going out of bounds, whether chasing a companion/player, flying crabs going past your head, enemies despawning in the water (waters too close to the arena), or the boss decides to go awol.

Someone always dies, or someone always joins, and it resets. It happens even when not between burrowing.

Of course it happens when not burrowing. Now the consensus seems to be it is when a player revives, and I agree.
The Group Event of Deetra Grotto also sometimes reset, but I do not know the cause.

It's not in todays (16 June) patch notes. So it's not fixed?

Just killed it without issue, but that's not necessarily an indicator it is fixed .. nvm

It just reset on me.
Not fixed.
No response from ZoS about it... Probably means they dont know whats causing it and has no fix for it untill they figure it out.

Helped some friends with it earlier, sadly reset 3 times.

Yeah, thought it was a player or companion pulling an add out of bounds. Ended up carefully observing the boss a bit and it turns out when the boss throws the little crabs all over the place durning its underground phase, some of those are landing out of bounds and resetting the fight. So it's bad boss rng.

Same thing can happen with Gaulm if he does his charge attack and goes into the entrance areas just outisde the "circle" of the arena.

Reset this morning 6 times on PS/NA, despite multiple people yelling in zone chat not to res at the location. We were either being trolled, or people had their text turned off.

This happened to me the first time I had the daily for that boss, and I rezzed before I remembered this post. After he reset and we fought him again I stayed dead until the others were done. (Side note I was on a stamblade and only one other player was there initially, so hopefully you won’t judge me for being in the red as a melee player, there is red pretty much everywhere at one point.)

I have also fought him where I saw other players die and rez without him resetting, so maybe he only resets if the player who has aggro dies.

I have experienced that the public dungeon group boss does the same thing.
