    In the Hall of Dead, Mortis Priest eventually deals double damage, or hits twice with a single shot. Usually happens right after he calls his knights. Here is a screenshot.

    I have tested that quite a lot, and I'm able to reproduce it all the time.

    Good find. I am not certain this was the case before 156, I didn't notice truthfully. and after 156 due to the event I havent farmed m2 so far.
    If its true in all servers and instances then it needs to be rectified.

    Yep, that has been around forever. It normally occures while you stay close to stairs. Stairs are your worst enemy in m2. I so far always assumed it was meant as crit hits from priests, but you are right, it could be a bug.

    My guess is that it happens at the stairs because they are different height levels and thus the bombs exploded at different frames.

    2 bombs from same enemy land on flat floor = land at same time or frame = single damage, since overlap is not double damage.

    2 bombs from same enemy launch onto stairs, 1st one hits high stair step for single damage, 2nd bomb hits lower stair step 1 or more frames later, also for single damage. Since bombs are hitting at different frames, you take double damage.

    That might be it, but I'm almost sure I have had this far from stairs as well, will test it out later.

    But nevertheless, it is a bug, isn't it?

    Btw, a little bit off topic but since here are the mortis priest specialists... any idea why don't they hit with a constant damage but a spread? I have had 4k from them as well as below 3k. Is it intended? Do they have min-max dmg similar to players?

    UPD: It is not only stairs causing it, but any areas with different levels, so it happens near the southwest knight too. And seems like the Knights explosions can also deal damage twice.

    Bump. What is the process about reporting bugs? Is there something to do to make sure it gets processed? Month plus no reply. Why would we bother reporting them?

    There is an additional bug with them. When mind controlled, if they kill someone, the drop is not guaranteed. Its not like it never drops, just sometime. I didnt really understood when it happens, but it seems to be related to either
    1. There would be no drop if they deal the damage after MC is no longer active
    2. There would be no drop if they kill by using skill to call their buddies.
