    Killing Mobs sometimes doesnt register which causes a break in the Chain EXP bonus

    Have been grinding since patch, and first time I encountered mobs not refreshing the chain number causing it to drop the chain bonus. Party members also claim its been happening all day.

    It happened on Pagos MInotaurs lvl35 mobs. They say the same happened earlier on Pagos Goats lvl34 mobs. They also said, disbanding the party and reinviting everyone will fix it, and it did.

    Same.. It's getting hard to keep a chain up even though we're killing mobs well before the timer ends. Also not getting exp. It's as if the game isn't registering the mob kill at all.

    Happened to me also fighting the lvl36 Elder Buffalo. There was about 10 seconds left on the chain timer when the monster was killed, but instead of the chain resetting, the timer just kept ticking down to 0 and we lost the chain. We did get experience points for the kill though.

    My party found it may possibly be related to the fact that the healer was not doing any damage to the enemy, so we started having the healer throw a DoT on the mob every pull. After that didn't experience the bug again.

    Here's a link to a reddit thread discussing the same issue for dev reference.
