Hunter+Blackhand p3... taking fall damage?

[Deleted]

So we got to blackhand last night, after a few pulls we found ourselves in phase 3. Problem is, when the drop happens, I took 100% fall damage. Okay, thought something went wrong, let's try again. We got another hunter in the group for next pull, and when p3 drop happened, I disengaged before hitting the ground and survived. The other hunter didn't, and, guess what, died. Instantly. Anyone else having that problem?

I did not have this issue on Blackhand normal last night; However, our other hunter did! It is really strange and seem to affect some hunters (not all since I wasn't affected)

I'm thinking it has to be something iffy with talents. What were you using? Lone wolf/focusing etc?

I ran with Focusing shot, Barrage, Crows, ToTH, Iron Hawk, Binding and Posthaste. Now that you mention it, I am fairly sure the other hunter ran LW. Both of us survival.

Lone wolf is our suspect it seems, will need to wait until tonight to test it though

edit: actually a friend is running it right now, will ask him to test it

I know my fellow raider solved it by using disengage before landing and therefore reduced/removed the falling damage.

Aye, fortunately there are ways to avoid it as a hunter, but it can't be intended. And it appears lone wolf could be the cause.. Blizzards way of saying "lol get good and roll FS"?:P

Well tbh Focusing shot makes survival much more enjoyable and should still be a dps increase It is not hard to learn rolling with it, one raid and you are used to it and will never want to go back

We have 3 hunters in our raid and I don't think anybody died going into phase 3 after we went into phase3 3 times.. so we are 9/9 for safe falls

might still want to report it on the bug report official forums.

hotfixed tonight :

Resolved an issue that could cause some Hunters or Warlocks to suffer fatal falling damage during the transition to Stage Three: Iron Crucible.
