Ok I had a serious problem with some of my pets last night and wanted to see if anyone else has had this happen.

I had my 3 Narglatch females out and GROUPED with me and went to attack a level 81 NPC (BH mark)..
The NPC 1 shot killed each of my 3 pets, doing well over 5k dmg per hit...

I havent had this problem with my level 69 GSP grouped or ungrouped.. I havent tried with other pets yet as I ran out of time.

I never had this happen before. I used to use the narglatch trio on BH marks, Krayts etc all the time and never had them get 1 shot killed or even take "extra" damage due to being low level.


Pets really should not have that particular feature where higher con enemies get extremely enhanced damage since MOST pets are lower level than the enemy that is being fought..

The Health on the Female Nargs dropped 4k with Publish 21 so this may be why they were one-shot killed.

NPC marks dont do 5k+ dmg in one shot normally. Regardless of the pets new health they should be taking less than 1k per hit not 5k+.

yea narglatches suck nowi was about to get one too

they took away elite creatures so narglatches resists suck their all over stats suck.

Please stay on topic, this has nothing to do with the changes in narglatch stats. Its a bug where the pets took a 1 shot kill when they should not have.

it is on topic publish 21 took away elites therfore making narglatches suck so they r now a 1hit KO to a lvl 81!!!they only have 3k health now so they get KOed with one shot by a lvl 81!!!!!

Did the mark happen to have <<Double Gold Brackets>>

No, it was just a regular BH NPC with about 7500 HAM. I have (just prior to the recent BH loot publish) had some Elite and Gold Elite marks and never had a problem like this.

When I get home today I plan to test it again and see if the same thing happens or if it happens with any of my other pets that are lower than level 69.. (since it did not happen to my level 69 GSP)

Also, I did proceed to kill that mark and it didnt hit me for more than 300-400 dmg a pop which is typical for these NPCs.

Um, no, CL 22 pets, grouped with presumeably a level 80, should not get one-shotted by a level 81. They should be taking no more than 500 damage per attack. If the pets were not grouped, damage could indeed be as high as 2-3000, but this was not the case as stated by the OP.

Exactly. And funny thing is my CL 69 GSP doesnt take "high damage" from enemies even when NOT grouped.. its very odd to be sure. Being level 81-83 the BH mark NPCs should be plenty high enough to do that "one shot kill" on even the level 69 pet if the same glitch existed there.

ok I can report that this isn't just a narg issue - Ihad my lvl 58 razor cat get one hit as well,

came back with a level 62 angler it lasted 2 hits, the level 65 veractyle didnt last much longer.

i myself died twice with a level 81 mark. I checked the combat log and while I was getting hit

pretty good the hits on the pets were 2K-plus EACH! so yeah they have stacked the deck

against bh/ch. Also I'd like to hear how many bikes have been blown up by marks?

That's their first target besides pets.

NPCs no longer specifically target Speeders. When they do hit them its due to NPC frequently using AOE attacks which will blow up the bike real quick. I ran /log of many many instances of my speeder and other peoples speeders being hit by NPCs and every time it was with an AOE.. its quite annoying but I just store mine if I am going to be in combat.
