It is possible the mesmerize was broken right at the last second. That being said, I'd been eaten once before last week and I noticed at that time it seemed I got eaten while still a couple yards away, and not right on top of the kunchong. I used deterrence when I was a few yards from the kunchong, went through him, and was at full hp with mesmerize over.
I agree with you completely in that this doesn't seem legit or intended. And in a perfect world, even if it was intended to work like this, it wouldn't be needed as dpsing the adds enough isn't difficult. For obvious reasons, I'm not keen on recreating the event. However, if I find myself in a similar situation, I'll certainly test it again and I'd appreciate anyone else doing the same. Basically, it's either a matter of perfect timing on multiple counts or deter being rather op in this lone circumstance.
