[b34] Temporal Warden Paradox Fight Bug, or Oddity, 825k dmg

[Aussiemon]

Okay, so my third Temporal Warden to take on the "very-familiar Paradox-Mage" was using the Displace Damage sustain. After fighting "The Guardian", he came back and was delivering the final blow to kill the Paradox Mage when:

"[PROJECTOR] starting dam 825202.41512702
[PROJECTOR] after difficulty dam 825202.41512702
[PROJECTOR] res 16.28 0.8372 on dam 825202.41512702
[PROJECTOR] after resists dam 690859.46194434
[PROJECTOR] final dam 690859.46194434"

...he was hit for what looks like 690k damage after resists. As far as I can tell, the final hit on the Paradox Mage was delivered through the displacement talent, as it gave me the "You feel a surge of power as a powerful creature falls nearby" message. I'm not complaining, as it gave me the achievements for being killed by him, but I do feel a little cheated out of my victory

Nope, you lost the fight.

[LOG] #LIGHT_BLUE#Your future self kills you! The timestreams are broken by the paradox!
[LOG] #LIGHT_BLUE#All those events never happened. Except they did, somewhen.

Except, when you kill yourself in the past don't you die in the future?

Anyway that's working as intended. You had a debuff on you called Sever Lifeline (which I'm guessing you didn't play attention too). It's capable of hitting for that much damage

And here's the hit

[LOG] Grimm Darkley the Paradox Mage hits Grimm Darkley for #DARK_GREEN#12 blight#LAST#, #DARK_GREEN#12 blight#LAST#, #LIGHT_STEEL_BLUE#690860 temporal#LAST# damage (total 690882.04).

That was you that got hit for 690k Not the future self.

Sever lifeline? I had noticed that in the game log after the fact, but hadn't realized it was THAT critical!
Just read about it in the dev update notes.

Well my bad, sorry for wasting your time!

haha.. don't worry about it I think to many bugs go unreported personally It's better to have some red herrings then something like this staying in the game if it was a bug.

Now, how do I learn that talent?
