My LS was doing Carabosse last night and it never used Benediction. Killed and got full drops minus key item and atma. We were trying to trigger "!!" with different spells/ws so I was wondering if something we did caused her to not 2 hour. Just posting here in case anyone else has had a similar experience. Nobody noticed any "!!," however she did start taking significantly less damage as if she had used Benediction (without the hp recovery). She also started changing seasons, but I believe she still only used her arrow attacks as she kept knocking my RNG back over and over again. The only WS I tried were Coronach, Trueflight, Numbing Shot, and Detonator. Only strange thing I noticed was Trueflight pulled a lot of hate even though it did only like 9 damage.

I noticed some VNMs doing this lately too, was doing pug in east ronf and he didn't mighty strikes once, yet he usually does every 20%... not once lol 0 recoil dives lol

I think maybe something screwy with programming on certain monster's 2hours after patch.

In my experience this has been the case since VNM was introduced to the game. It's been a while since I did VNMs now, but it may have something to do with them being "true" or not, idk, speculating. But yeah, I have had several T2 VNMs not using 2hr at all.

This happened to me once, but it was a long time ago now.
