Stun bug

[Jonas]

I was with a party killing the Prince of Pestilence NM then I got stun cast on me and obviously thought nothing of it because it would wear off, but the timer hit 00:00 and I couldn't do anything at all, I couldn't even log out and all my buffs would stop at 00:00 also.

I think it may have been a server-side error, I had this when I tried to quit a caravan security quest. It did not allow me to quit and it took another few minutes after the timer reached 00:00 to actually end, in this time I had poison on me at 00:00 for over 5 minutes.

The thing happened to me too while soloing him a few days ago, only that time he died from "Rasp II" while I was stunned. And when it happened to Jonas I was in his Party.

This seems to always happen with conditional status effects, like Stun, Bind, etc. which either wear off over time or with the next attack of the inflictor. What happened to Jonas was the following: The Prince of Pestilence casted Shock Spikes on himself, Jonas hit it and got the Stun status affect inflicted on him. While Jonas was still stunned the Prince was killed by a party member which bugged the debuff out.

Class/Skill Rank:
Area and Coordinates: The Mun Tuy Cellars, 6-4
Party or Solo: Party and Solo
NPC Name: none
Monster Name: Prince of Pestilence

Steps:

1. Start the game
2. Attack the Prince of Pestilence
3. Drain the Prince of Pestilences health until it is low
4. Wait until he casts Shock Spikes on himself
5. Hit him and get the Stun status effect inflicted on yourself
6. Have a party member kill the Prince of Pestilence shortly after the Stun was inflicted and while it is still active.

Results:

The timer on the Stun status effect will reach 0:00 but will never wear off, as will all the other buffs currently on the player.

Expected Results:

The status effect should be removed once the timer reached 0:00 and not affect other buffs.

Hello Jonas,

We ask that you fill out the information required, not quote another player's reply. We ask for very specific information, such as ISP and character name, and by quoting the other poster, you do not give us the information we seek.

Once you have filled out the form, we will be more than willing to submit this report to our Development Team.

Thank you for your understanding,

-Senior Game Master Jhanaka
