MSQ Bug- Put to the Proof

Date & Time: 28/12- 1:10 AM (GMT+10)
Frequency: Always
World name: Tonberry
Character name: Yuki Yakasha
Class/Level: Level 75 Reaper
Party or solo: Solo
In-game time: N/A
Area and coordinates: The Rak'Tika Greatwood - 4.6, 26.0
Steps:

During the quest you have to dive under water and find the correct statues to touch.

1. If you touch the wrong statue you get poisoned (NOT THE BUG)
2. The poison does at least 5000 damage while you only have 20,000 health (BUG)

I've died 2 times because the poison does too much damage, it lasts for 1 minute and does 5000 a second.

It sounds like maybe they forgot to adjust the potency with the stat squish?

But in any case, the order of statues is (to my memory) fixed and clearly explained before you start, so read carefully and look around and the overwhelming poison effect may not be an issue to deal with.
