Theatre of Blood released on the testserver - bughunter contest

Don't think this is supposed to happen but not sure.

Suppose I do 2 raids, in the first raid I drop a saradomin brew in the Xarpus room and finish the rest of the Theatre, when I start the second raid and reach the Xarpus room again, my saradomin brew is still on the ground.

Yeah, definitely not supposed to happen.

You could stack infinite supplies in each room this way.

Pretty sure you should't be able to bring a dawnbringer outside of Theatre of Blood.

When Pvm Porn and I duo'd Sotetseg multiple times, after killing Sotetseg and running back through the field, we get damaged every like 2/3 gameticks. However, if one person dies during Sotetseg and the other player kills Sotetseg, there is no damage brought upon the player running back through the field.

Edges of maps have this offputting white boarder:

Some ladders and the edge ditch also have it:

Nex
1) Reflected damage using Bandos shield is calculated before overhead reduction. Not sure if this is intended or not:

Spoiler: show

2) You can damage Nex with Bandos shield reflection during minion phases when Nex should be invulnerable.
3) Bandos shield reflection doesn't work in final phase once all minions have died. Unsure if this is intentional.

In last phase of Verzik, if the person who is being aggroed dies, Verzik will delay attacking the group after she uses one of her special abilites:

sorry, very laggy

I have released yet another update on the testserver today which should fix all the reported issues, except the last one (Verzik's third phase not attacking the group after a player dies). Considering the complexities of Verzik's combat mechanics, this one is very tricky to get fixed and I suppose players won't mind it being this way.

Pestilent Bloat - the barrier hitboxes are really big and it is easy to misclick on them when trying to run to a square along the center wall.

I couldn't reproduce this issue, can you clarify what the problem is exactly?

Vorkath - If you kill Vorkath when he spits poison in the air which lands on you, the poison will keep ticking away at your health even when Vorkath is defeated. My understanding is if Vorkath dies, the poison should simply disappear. Almost died to this earlier thinking Vorkath was dead. The poison disappeared only when it respawned.

Thank you for reporting this, I have fixed it in the testserver but I'm pretty sure this is also a bug in the production server, therefore I have not granted any points for the bughunter contest.

Reflected damage is indeed calculated before overhead reduction, this is intended.
I have checked the code and the reflection should not deal any damage if Nex is invulnerable. I have also tested this in-game, when she is invulnerable the reflection always deals 0 damage. During any other phase, including the last phase and all minions are dead, the reflection seems to work fine.

I feel like this is a huge no go for the server. Knowing our player base and the average skill of a PkHonorian, we won't be able to do efficient ToB's if we wait hours on end to have 3 decent enough players so we can have a chance at completing the raid.
The previous scaling was really good ( 5 man team=100%, 4 man team= 4/5 of HP, 3 man team= 3/5 of HP, 2 man team= 2/5 of HP, solo=1/5 of HP ).

I have found a couple of bugs as well :

• Whenever Nylocas Vasilias changes the attack style, you get pulled towards it.
• After finishing the maze at Sotetseg, if you go back to the tiles before the red tornado vanishes, you still get damaged. Same happens when you kill Sotetseg and he's about to choose someone for his maze, but he dies before doing that, walking back on the tiles will heavily damage you.

Now an off topic bug, but one that should be fixed, it's the zoom location. At the moment, it is not centered on the torso, making everything be seen from a much lower perspective which means you can see less of the actual surroundings.

This might be a visual glitch then. Here is a gif of it happening during a protection phase:

Sorry should have been more concise. When you drop the camera angle too low with the door facing the bottom of your screen, the hitbox is very large:
