Stomp attacks trap thralls underground

Game mode: All
Type of issue: Bug
Server type: All
Region: All


Stomp attacks are either horribly implemented and buggy or ill-conceived and detrimental to gameplay. Has Funcom ever even acknowledged this as a bug? Having your follower 99% neutralized in a game where combat is 99% dependent on your follower is not a good gameplay mechanic. Yes I am aware it is possible to kill these enemies, but the workarounds to this absurd stomp mechanic are generally so cumbersome that most players simply avoid these encounters. If a developer just decided to remove a bunch of encounters from the game one patch, would no one raise an eyebrow? This is effectively what stomp attacks have done. It is way past time to fix this.

It’s crazy that not only has this issue festered in Exiled Lands for so long, but it was added to Siptah as well.


Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:

  1. Bring a thrall to fight Red Mother or rhinoceros boss
  2. Thrall gets stomped under the ground and cannot attack

It was addressed 2 years ago when I made complaints and they mentioned they’ve fixed it in the past, yet here we are.

I’m glad to hear the patch is coming soon, it’s only a matter of hoping and praying it actually fixes it once and for all. I can get past the other minor bugs etc with thralls but this has been frustrating me for 2 years.
