I can confirm what you are eluding to, Obsidian and Hargkyth do not take damage from Fire Aura. The feeling you have from damage output regarding Dark Binding has to do with his Healing Obsidian Stone. Since Dark Binding and Vermin swarm do damage over time, the effects of the healing are keeping it more or less level while the Obsidian is up.

I could go into more but it's way more entertaining to see the strategies you guys come up with to deal with his buffs!

In regards to his "damage spike" inside the fire bubble, there does appear to be a minor visual glitch in where he does not properly do the animation. If you get hit heavy and knocked around you were hit by an appropriate ability, but the animation did not fire correctly.

nope, doesn't work for me. VS still doesn't work even if health stone is down.

When you say "doesn't work for me" what do you mean? Its not hitting? Or its not doing damage?

Both, VS doesn't work at all for me either, no dmg no visuals.

EDIT: and no, health obsidian isn't up.

Well as for the damage, I don't think you'll see much with the skills alone.

Also, with DB, you should see Harg stop moving when he's bound. I personally haven't seen any issues using these two skills.

A pee emote would be useful!

I prefer using the weapon n at time spamming powers

Okay, i just tested in solo

Vermin swarm charged and uncharged does no dmg whatsoever, the hp bar doesn't move one bit, not even fill and refill (although he doesn't regen w/o health obsidian) and ofc hp regen obsidian.

Dark binding does no dmg, but he gets snared for less than a second, i can see blood, but again no dmg at all.

Charged fatal burst, does no dmg either.

I'm not sure if i'm blind or not, but would someone kindly run a solo and test those again?

EDIT: just tested again with a friend and same results, now there could be two crazy ppl, or what's above is true, need someone from here to test and confirm.

Harg'kyth is also immune to bleed effects

It's so fat one pierce from an axe/sword and he'll bleed to death from the fats spilling out of his body LOL.

Sry cara, just got a little bit bored.

Another thing i noticed is if u dont have aggro u can stay inside his shield and not take damage. Seems to work best if ur by the shield rock circle.

What do you mean if you don't have aggro? Meaning if you don't hit him?

Also, can someone tell me what DoTs means too? I know it's probably a noob question, but if I never ask I will never know.

Thx.

DoT means Damage over Time spells like Fire Aura and Dark Binding and Vermin Swarm. They do damage with every "tick" of time in game til spell runs its course.
Aggro is uaually on the person who is doing the most damage to Harg. always the first person there or the first attacker will get aggro from Harg but if somebody else is doing more damage then they will get aggro and that is who he will attack instead (directly). He has AoE attacks as well (area of effect) which damages everybody around him in a certain radius.
Hope that helps.
