B never confirmed the lockset was supposed to take crit damage. Given how easy it is to hit the "boss" I would say crits were never supposed to be possible.

I think if it’s a “known issue” then perhaps it’s an issue… call me crazy but that’s just my opinion.

Well, there's obviously something wrong but assuming that he was supposed to take crits is not supported by any evidence. Due to the nature of the dps phase I am leaning towards no crit as otherwise you would be able to one phase without any particular set up.

Brother… the fact that it’s a [b][u]known issue[/u][/b] acknowledged by Bungie IS your evidence… the people that made the thing put that on their list of known issues… come on now.

It has been acknowledged that we're being shown crits. Nowhere did Bungie say that the lockset was supposed to take crits. They acknowledge that there's something wrong but did not specify what's exactly wrong. You're just assuming but have no evidence. I don't have it either but looking at the game play it's fair to assume that he shouldn't be taking crit damage as otherwise the dps phase would be too easy. Again, I can't show you proof - all I have is indirect evidence (which might be wrong, ok) whilst you have nothing to support your version.

The boss is coded with a crit spot just like every other Shreiker in the game. If you don’t shoot that crit spot it does non critical white base damage. The known issue is that players receive crit feedback when hitting the crit spot but the damage you actually deal is non critical white base damage… THAT is the known issue.
-
I know. But we don't know what the bug exactly would be: not receiving crit damage or incorrectly showing crit numbers. That never has been clarified.

Whatever man if you want to believe there’s a possibility that Bungie made a Shreiker boss for their dungeon, intended for it to be different from every other Shreiker in the game, then coded it with a crit spot anyway or by mistake, then put on their known issues list that the Shreiker that was never meant to have a crit spot but has one anyway is showing crit damage when the unintentional crit spot is hit but the real damage being done is non crit damage then by all means be my guest… I just won’t be joining you on that ride to Looneyville.

Your whole argument is based on assumptions and not facts so all you can do is resort to schoolyard talk. It was never confirmed whether the crits being shown is the bug or the boss not taking any real damage. All I did was emphasising that fact and then remarking that otherwise the boss would be too easy since he's not moving so scoring a crit is fairly easy. My assumption is as good as yours hence I'm not insisting on being correct while you are despite having no facts to back your version of the story. And that's the actual lunacy here. So have fun.
