1. Fireburst level 3+
When a monster is burning, casting one or more firebursts upon it, sometimes it seems to interrupt/stop the burning. Can anyone check this?

2. Ancient claymore doing a consistent ZERO damage against stone golems/elementals. When fighting against those stony creatures that drop three stones when dead, ancient claymore seems to be totally ineffective against them (excluding criticals). Other heavy weapons of roughly same tier, seem to hit them every now and them (without criticals). That is using a barb mino against a barb insectoid of same heavy weapons level (heck, the minotaur is even stronger). Dexterity and accuracy are also roughly the same.

Never observed this one ..

The Ancient Claymore's normal attack does pure cold damage. When your target is cold immune you're naturally doing zero damage.

Thanks. Then those stone golems or whatever they are must be immune to cold attacks.

Yeah, you can't freeze stones to death after all.

And maybe the burning just timed out?

When you attack a stone golem with the "life leech" special attack, the game displays the message "immune".
Does the same thing happen with cold attacks?

It seems similar but it's not.

The summon stones as those little rock guys are called represent earth elementals. Since they are classed "elemental" "Life Leech" does not effect them. On top of that they are immune to cold and poison.

"Life Leech" is a physical special attack with three possible effects. Used vs. living monsters the champions drains life from it's target. Used vs. monsters classed "elemental" like the summon stones or "construct" nothing happens and the "immune" message pops up. Used vs. undead monsters the champions life is drained.

Thanks for the explanation Dr. Disaster.

I learned that one the hard way.
