Arch Tempered Vaal Hazak returns for the summer fest, and I've been waiting for this to see if there's any fix to its behaviour.

There is not.

I'm not surprised given how little coverage this exploit has gotten. It's not like the SAED cancel glitch, or the Longsword buff glitch, where people went wild speedrunning with them.

This is not a serious bug at all, just that we can completely kill an elder dragon level monster without it ever turning hostile, that is it won't actively harm us aside from its effluvium. Definitely not worth patching out.

To make matter worse, I realise that this loophole in Vaal's AI is present in the regular variant as well. I would assume this behaviour has never changed since launch, and I'm surprised that we never found this out.

But who the heck cares anyway?

By the way, the last clip is just me faffing about with the exploit on regular Vaal. Nothing seems to be different from what I've covered. I still don't have a setup for that area, but I get a feeling that I have till the end of time to figure that out, should I ever.
