i have seen this on another post regarding this glitch but no answers to this specific issue so i am c/p it from there

Also a warsong boss glitch, but not Incacerate so split the thread if necessary...

The wood pavilion boss (I don't know his name off the top of my head) sometimes randomly hits players in the squad for 8 to 10-digit damage numbers (tens to thousands of millions in damage). If it is by design, there is nothing in game to indicate that it will happen or why it happens.

This is unrelated to what happens if you don't kill all the mobs in that pavilion which leads to him doing exactly 50,000 damage to each player and is by design.

It has happened to me too and it it really annoying... All the mobs are cleared, we start killing the boss (Pestilent Destroyer) normally then out of no where it randomly 1 shots us all... The sin in one of my parties even recorded a dmg of 2.3mil... i told him to SS it and send it in i got no idea if he did tho... Anyhow..., after the second party whipe because of the same reason, someone suggested i lure the boss till it resets and we should be fine after. I did that and it finally dies. Please look into this bug its really active and quite annoying. ty

    i can confirm that the wood pavilion boss - Pestilent Destroyer - sometimes randomly 1-shots players without any notice and it is not the "frenzy" 50.000 damage

    Most of the time you don't even see the damage (unless you are a sin with deaden nerves on) because of another bug which hasn't been posted yet where taking damage far in excess of your max HP doesn't show up on screen or on the damage log.

    Last time it happened, the boss wiped our squad 3 times in a row. We ended up having to kill it with the entire squad using ironguard powder. I tried to get a screenshot of the damage but I missed it every time.

    im one of the sins in that squad, the boss got to like 1/10 of its hp and did frenzy dmg whipping all, including a 3rd cast r9 ep +10 gears in bb in 1 hit

    I feel like this already was posted once, and I recall Geno saying it was by design.

    IT WAS posted inside another post about Incarcerate... but never taken into consideration OR made a solution to it ( as i so clearly stated at the beginning of this thread) THAT is the only reason i started a new one, so that IT CAN BE SEEN EASY. i have searched this glitch before i even decide to post it to see if it was resolved and no answer... was just mentioned in another post as a comment.

    and it isn't funny to leave that there "by design". if it was party whipe just 1 time i wouldn't have bothered, but since it repeats itself and prevents players from moving on with the instance... it is an issue
