    Have you also found the Damage from the DoT (Prey marker) is also afflicted by this? I feel like usually it's fine, but every now and again it will seem to apply the damage at inconsistent times (I think the last tick of dmg usually applies at 3 seconds, but here and there it might apply at 1 second)?

    Yeah...the prey DoT also is based on server ticks so sometimes like the prey marker gets hit by the missile and the DoT immediately ticks bringing them down to very low HP due to both of the damage hitting them at the same time basically. While other times there is some time between the damage. It would be due to simply where the server ticks were when you initiated the boss I think and also which of the two scripted patterns the boss ends up doing.

    Best way to deal would be to shield the prey target for the initial hit I guess or time a direct heal to land just as the prey target gets hit by the missile. Also the pattern he uses for Prey then Shockwave can be a real pain in the butt....since the shockwave damage and prey DoT I swear I've seen them both hit together and cause the prey target to get one shot if no shields or not full HP. Just what I've observed...I am unsure if there are other factors or if sometimes the prey target maybe made a mistake and hit the wall.
