We reported last week on the double-casting of AoEs by Destiny of Velious HM (hard mode) raid targets, making many fights either nearly impossible, or requiring exceptional luck. According to Kander, this is now being looked at: It is definitely a bug and we definitely intend to fix it. We have code looking at it right now.
