If you run vesuvius on igursus do not equip taiga trap.
I fought one where igursus used vesuvius, i used thousand forms which did enough damage to proc taiga trap, taiga trap dealt damage to igursus, igursus reflected the damage back to itself, taiga trap procced again and so on. Funny to watch but not well thought out.
On a side note, when looped damage is used and an enemy is possesed any attacks used are reflected back at your team. With vesuvius it is reflected back at igursus team.
What is the difference between the two skills?
I didnt think there was any.

laziness mostly. it didn't work for Gretchen either and how long before Igursus was she out? it's never gonna get fixed, they haven't bothered to fix Nautilus and that's been over a year yet they fixed volray.

@VargRanger not sure about the issue with Gretchen, but with Igursus, I think it is due to the "taunt" also applied along with Vesuvius. Once possessed with Vesuvius in action, I've noticed that the Taunt always triggers first as Igursus tries to reflect the attack, with the end result being the attack being reflected on himself. On a side note however, when the Keeper's skill mirror was intact, there were some skills he reflected back to the enemy, and some to his own team, if he was possessed with the mirror active( The second case being more frequent). So it might be a broken game mechanic after all...

@testcyp Yep, the Volray bug was exactly the same as Nautilus. You'd think it would take only a few minutes of programing to apply the same fix to Nautilus, yet over a year later it's still not fixed!!!

It's not even programming, it's a matter of copy/paste. The fact that this hasn't been fixed must mean SP does not want to, either to avoid getting angry customers or to boost the sales of Nautilus first.

Or both. :)

@David-ML SP only worry about things that earn them money, which is NEW monsters and NEW events.

They don't care about fixing stuff from yesteryear as it has no POSITIVE effect on their income (although they might have to pay someone overtime to do it, so they LOSE money).

Take Hydratila - it is simply INEXCUSABLE that he is still based in 3 elements, rather than all in water. I am simply outraged that they cannot be bothered to correct this.

This isn't a bug. It is intended. There is nothing to fix.

@C0ntr1v3d No, it was intended before they changed their mind with subsequent Nemeses. They need to change it
