During the Beasts of Northrend encounter, we had Icehowl's freezing breath bug out. Here's what happened.

One of our warlocks got targeted by the breath. He used his human racial, Every Man For Himself, to get out of the breath's stun. After this happened, Icehowl finished his breath and then was stuck in the freezing breath animation with that warlock targeted. He didn't do anything else, and was in that state from 60% life to 0 for us. It felt extremely cheesy even killing such an easy encounter this way, so I'm reporting this for that reason.

Amazing. You have nothing to do now that people that aren't you have cleared Ulduar.

Bumping as well.

We were getting him to breath and people were getting out of it just fine for most of our attempts via Every Man for Himself/Blink/etc., but one time he just got stuck for us too.

Only seeing this on the heroic 25-man version.

Same happened to us on Sunday. Really sucked, since it was our initial heroic kill, and we were probably only a handful of attempts from a legit kill. I'm not sure if it was a mage blink that did it, but after reading this, I'm asking our mages about it.

Thanks for the report, we'll look into this.

Though I'd throw this out there too.

While wiping on Beasts hard mode, the person being targeted by Icehowl's arctic breath was Divine Intervention'd. When this happened, he just kept arctic breathing and did no damage to anyone, even through his enrage. So it's not just the human racial or blink.

Q u o t e:
i've used the human racial out of this breath and he didn't freeze, so probably not the only trigger.


Chances are, you weren't the one being targeted by it. This is only reproducible if the person being targeted by it uses EMFH or similar abilities.
