Trial of Defense, Idol Glitch

My faction did Trial of Defense (trial 2) tonight. We farmed the whole time and then set up our idols like every other time we've done trial 2, but for some reason tonight the idols did not damage the mobs and all of them made it to the portal, well surpassing the 10 mob limit and failing the trial. Has any other faction encountered this issue tonight?

    I heard this happens if you don't have anyone nearby watching the idols kill the mobs.

    Seems to randomly happen, that sometimes the mobs don't take damage from the idols. Had it happen to us on 3 occasions. Two times it failed the trial, but another it was just one mob that made it through unscathed.

    It's not the ones you can stun either, it's the tigerman (don't remember the name) looking things that do it.

    Irritating, to say the least, to waste 45 minutes running the trial to just have it fail because of a glitch.

    You can sleep them with techniques that deal no damage, and if you do that on the room with exploding idols, you can succeed even if the glitch starts.

    All you have to do is, when mobs start walking from the start, walk with the mobs... along the path they will take damage and when most reach the last room, they will die before getting to the portals. *I've done this trial about 6 times, 2 of them we failed because we didn't do it like this*

    We had it fail a few times bak awhile ago, then started doin the followin the mobs thingy. It didnt glitch for a long time, but eventually it still glitched. Stunnin/Immobilizing doesnt work if they wont take any dmg from idols.
    I know another faction has sent in a ticket about awhile bak, surprised GM's haven't said anythin about it yet.

    Yup... just as I thought, your ugly face scared them away. You might want to invest in a Paper Bag and refine it to about +7, that should solve your problem.

    One of the time it had glitched on us, I clicked one of the mob who had entered into the 4th room, the damn thing was actually taking damage, then regenerating to full health.

    did you try roaring them with bms in the second room where there are the "pro" exploding idols
    if you roar mobs in that room there is no need to put on other idols in the rest of the dungeon....

    I have had it happen and the ticket told me to come to forums as well, you need more than one person walking with the mobs usually to avoid it from glitching. If you read the text, it does say to watch the mobs closely to make sure they don't avoid idol damage also seems to suggest more than one person walk with them.
