Not a Bug mobs immune to fireball/icebolt while on fire

[I_Love_Miners]

not sure if this a new vanilla thing or a bug, but when a mob is on fire, they dont take damage from further fireballs or icebolts, rather than just left clicks like before

it's not 100%, but a very high percentage of the time

You on the pvp server because i have not seen this on the pve one. Level 32 wizard, so kinda would notice but not yet .

This is the same with arrows. In mine craft, when an mob/player is hit, you would notice the mob/player becomes "red" meaning that they were damaged. When they are in "red," they are invuln from damage. So you were most likely hitting the mobs when they were in "red," so they were invuln from damage.

Pretty much this. Since both fireball and icebolt rely on the snowball hitting someone, it won't deal any damage if they recently got fire ticked. Side note- same problem with shaman's firestrike totem.

Actually it did not. It been a long time that it been doing that.
