[Bug] Cipher's "Pain Link" causes infinite damage

[Ancientfire]

In the quest "Whispers in the Dark" of WM2, during the final battle with the Radiant Spore and its families, I came cross this pleasant bug.

 

Basically, I just put "Pain Link" on my melee characters, and then suddenly those surrounding foes died. It happened twice. Each time it killed 4 spores, and the second time even included the Radiant Spore! And in the combat logs, it said that Grieving Mother's "Pain Link" had caused "Infinity" damage to the 4 enemies respectively.

 

Unfortunately I lost my screenshot (I made the screenshot but I didn't know it's in the clipboard and I need to paste it in Windows 7).

 

Anyway, it seems to be a lovely bug (never happended before with other weaker enimies) and I just had my easiest boss battle

On the announcement forum there is a thread about 3.04... Would you mind posting this there?

Already done, thanks !

They'll probably require a save game as well...

It's caused by Triggered Immunity. I'm attaching a screenshot here because for some reason it's not possible in the Announcement & News forum.

Hilarious find! Need to evolve a build around that asap.

 

There's an item with minor spellbind "Pain Link" - forgot which one it was (starting to build...)

Ryona's Breastplate has it (that's what causing it in AncientFire's game). And of course you can just go with a Fighter. By the way, do you mean building around the Pain Link bug specifically, or the instant healing? Should be a fairly short-lived build though, can't imagine they won't fix it in 3.04. They probably inadvertently fixed it already, actually.

Just a joke. I will not... or will I?
