Animate Guardian absorbing the "of fleeing" mod causes it to bug out permanently and flee forever

https://streamable.com/qjif2c

As you can see, the Animate Guardian of Smiting just runs away forever, even when using Convocate to recall it to my position.

This seems to occur when the minion takes the modifier "of fleeing" from an enemy rare monster while the player is using the Hallowed Monarch helm. Supposedly, this should only last 60 seconds, just like Headhunter.

However, it seems that for whatever reason, this causes the behavior to bug out for the rest of the map. The minion will make no attempt to attack and will continue its efforts in running away from me (the player). This breaks the map entirely and renders the build unplayable. I'm not sure how to go about reporting this except here.

Please advise.

It's the same AI behavior since Merc league where you could give your merc a HH. Sadly has been reported so many times already with no change yet.

FWIW, the workaround is to leave the map and re-enter. There's a streamer that played the build and they said it happens about once per stream and they just TP back to hideout and back to the map and Fleeing mod is gone and they can continue like normal. But results may vary if you're doing mechanics that are more rares or more modifiers increasing the chance of stealing Fleeing.

And I see now you're doing the non-spectre version, so way more frequent for you where their spectres would randomly get it allowing AG to get it less frequently. Best of luck though. Hopefully the surge of AG players this league will push up the timeline for a fix and not just waiting for the reintroduction of Mercs to push out the fix. But could just coping.

Yeah, I get the workaround. Problem is when you do content you can't simply just leave, like Hive Fortress, and this bugs out, it just means you fail. It just sucks to have no control, when all GGG needs to do is prevent the mod from being absorbed by Hallowed Monarch.

LMAO

why haven't you fixed it yet. Is the player base a joke to you?
