    Found 2 bugs at the Balrog boss fight

    1) Altars softlock - Sometimes the altar event softlocks you by keeping balrog in his healing state indefinitely, attacking him in this state only heals him, and he refuses to do anything else until the timer runs out.

    Steps to reproduce bug
    1. Defeat the hands (Might not be necessary)
    2. Attack the head until Balrog enters healing mode, where it prompts you to hit one of the altars on the map
    3. Don't hit the altar for about 20 seconds

    (Specifically when it happened to me
    the altar needs to be hit 5 times, but I only hit it 3 times before I stopped to kill a crimson balrog that spawned
    I took me around 20 seconds to kill the crimson balrog,
    after it died I came back to hit the altar and continue the boss fight, but the altar is no longer interactable.)

    The moment the altar on the right side deactivate by itself is when the softlock happens,
    the time from the altar event start to softlock is approximately 20 seconds

    2) Magic guard 1hko - Balrog has one 1/1 attack, however if your character is a mage using magic guard, it automatically kills you from full hp
    I'm unsure whether being a mage or magic guard causes this issue, but I assume the latter to be the culprit.
    Reviewing the footage, my priest had 3.6k HP with magic guard and hyper body and instantly died upon getting hit. Other classes that got hit was fine and didn't die.

    However this attack is rare and I believe he only uses it if you aggro the head before/while fighting his hands

    Steps to reproduce bug
    1. At the beginning of the fight, attack his head a few times to aggro it. Successful head aggro means he will start dispelling.
    2. Come down to attack his hands until he does this attack.
    3. Get hit by it as a mage using magic guard.

    Hmm #1 could be a feature and I wouldn’t complain
