Is it just me or does Deadly Poison not work on his right arm?

It does, check your recount. You are probably not positioned in the right spot, his hitbox is really buggy. There are spots that should be in melee range which aren't, until he swings back to pick up 3 of your healers. For most of that fight, I am scrambling around looking for the spot where my auto-attacks, and not just my specials, will land. Most of the time its in front of and to the right (while facing him) of his hand, by the thumb I guess. I end up facing his armpit (not really to his hand), which is nice b/c you don't have to move to hit his chest, and it keeps you out of the adds if you tank them on the left side of the room.

So...

White Damage...Hits him.
Yellow Damage...Hits Him.
Main Hand Poison...Hits him.
But Off-hand poison doesn't?

>< I'll check recount next time I fight him, but something seems screwed up.

Best place to stand is directly in front of his body and face him like you're trying to melee his torso. You can tab around to both arms and his body and still manage to hit everything just fine without ever having to move. As for your poisons not working? I couldn't tell you, because mine have always proc'd just fine on him.

Unless they broke something recently (always possible) it's just your luck. I didn't test it this week because I went on my Paladin, but it was working just fine the last time I went like two weeks ago.

I stood in the middle, facing his chest and was landing DP on his right arm. It's such a buggy hitbox. What I was saying in my other post Moo is that maybe there is an internal difference in range between specials and auto-attacks, as I was having the same problem. Mutilate would land, and I was relegated to using Evis (eww) to spend the combo points b/c there was no DP on him. But I noticed that Mutilate and Evis animations where working, but my toon would be silent in between, zero auto-attack animations.
