Firestorm (ele skill) and the key dropping bug?

I have been through a couple bugged games where the key didn't drop when the last mob was killed. Sometimes it was an invincible red templar assassin, sometimes it was an wolf that we killed in the end.

 

However, in every bugged game there was an elementalist that used firestorm in the last pull. I remember it was known the firestorm can mess up the templar assassin. So can the animal bug be the same, as in no key dropping only if a firestorm is involved?

 

I haven't done extensive tests on this yet, but after switching to other toons and avoiding pugs with elementalists in it, I have been having consistent smooth runs.

If the last enemy that you kill in a stage is an animal and not a normal enemy unit, then the key won't drop.

It would've been easier if you would just say that you want Elementalist nerf'ed... lol

Don't think so. I was able to obtain the key when I killed a wolf as the last enemy. We had an archer, an assassin and two arcane warriors in that party. Similar reports can also be found on the reddit post.

Ele is one of my favorite classes, but I guess I won't be using it in any time soon. =/

I don't think this has any merit to it.  I've played Ele quite a bit in addition to many other classes since the dlc release, and the result is always the same.  If a key doesn't drop, it's because an animal was the last to die, regardless of enemy faction, difficulty, or class.  This is really the only common element here.

Not sure this is always the case. I've had a game where the last enemy was a wolf thing, and we were cool.

Its not always the case but this is a very consistent factor when it does happen, which is pretty often.

I had this happen to me once so far. It was invincible templar assassin/shadow. I was playing Arcane Warrior, could move it, weaken it, immolate it with my staff 10% skill, knock it over, move with the skill (behind the wall, hoped that kills mobs outright).

Nothing helped, just a huge waste of time.

Haven't watched your vid yet, but does it only occur during wave 4?

No, it can happen in any zone.

Yestarday, I played as an Ele for about 3 hours AFTER downloading the new MP pack and I completed 2/8 games because of the bug!. I think this is new as all the other times I have played an Ele, I've had no problem whatsoever.

Glad to see others are having issues with the ele (and possibly firestorm) as well. I have still yet to encounter this bug in parties without elementalists.

I don't think this has any merit to it.  I've played Ele quite a bit in addition to many other classes since the dlc release, and the result is always the same.  If a key doesn't drop, it's because an animal was the last to die, regardless of enemy faction, difficulty, or class.  This is really the only common element here.

So you have got the key bug without any ele, including other players, in your group?

Yeah, oddly I don't think I've had the bug happen while playing my ele yet, or others play it.  And I spam flashpoint+Firestorm like there's no tomorrow.  It's certainly possible there's a connection, but like I said, I've gotten the bug with all assortment of random classes.  Specifically, after this thread, I started paying more attention to any correlation between Ele and this bug, and can't say I've found one.  From what I can tell, from my experience anyway, the key drop bug almost always happens when an animal is the last to die, regardless of classes, map, difficulty, enemy type, round, etc. 

 

Edit:  Ok I just got the key bug while playing my Ele.   Gonna keep playing Ele and see how consistent it is.

I noticed this with an ele that didn't kill any of the new mobs last. But I've also noticed it on non-ele's when they kill a new mob last. Maybe there's two parameters for the bug?
