    Ramuh Extreme is bugged after 29/7 maintenance???

    Just now me and few LS friends were practicing Ramuh Extreme and using solo tank method. Sometimes the chaotic strike targeted our MT and this was never happened before the maintenance. Have everyone tried Ramuh Extreme after the maintenance and experieced this? Or it is just RNG or this fight is really bugged now? The chaotic strike never targets the MT right?

    the only thing i have to contribute to this, why would a player be exempt from being attacked? what about that makes sense? "hes main tank, he cant get hit by this", even though the tanks job is to get hit with everything they can while staying alive.

    I have not done ramuh extreme but there are some attacks that will not target the current tank (Titan landslide/gaol for example) so if it's a similar situation it may very well be bugged

    If you've never done the fight, why even voice your opinion? Chaotic strike does not usually target the main tank. At least, not before this patch. I dislike that this forum is plagued by the opinions of the ignorant.

    Unless you've been living under a rock all these years, I'll assume this is your first MMO and explain.

    Tanks not being targeted by specific mechanics has existed for years mainly because certain mechanics targeting tank would make the fight impossible. Best example in this game is Titan EX. Imagine him Gaoling a tank then said tank lose threat then Titan turns to the group, Mountain Buster the party, chaos ensues.

    That's why there is an off-tank who should always be #2 on the Aggro chain and ready to swap at a moment's notice.

    Haha, or a random landslide or jail on the Tank. It would honestly be hilarious xD

    Um....almost every MMO with group content tends to have a boss or a mob with those conditions...seriously..

    f you would look above your post, you would see ive already made a correction to what i said. i was referring to a tank class, not the person holding aggro.the tank class is supposed to be the one holding aggro, just because its set up to happen that way, doesnt mean it always will.

    I'm sure it's working as intended. Chaotic Strike can target anybody. You just got really good RNG before today.

    Edit: To be fair, if it isn't a bug and duo tank the Main Tank doesn't get hit. The Solo Tanking method might trigger Ramuh to target the Main Tank anyway.
