Group players not getting Brutus credit.

Might have been covered already somewhere:

I convinced a friend to join me in PoE (he’s loving it BTW), so we grouped up and made our way to Brutus (normal). We’re both around level 11/12. Unfortunately, we had no Portals, entered the Warden’s Quarters and entered Brutus’ “room” (BR). My friend made it through most of the fight, until the very end when he died, rezzed in town and started taking the WP back to the prison… however, whilst he was doing this Brutus died and spewed his loot.

I got my quest requirement, but my party member didn’t… which meant he couldn’t proceed forward through BR to the next zone and WP… that was somewhat annoying.

Not as annoying as trying to “reset” BR so we could try kill him again, so my friend could meet his quest requirement. We couldn’t simply exit BR and CTRL-Click the doorway to reset the fight, nor could we CTRL+Click on the Warden’s Quarters to reset that area… we had to CTRL-Click the Lower Prison WP to reset that zone (and then fight our way through again) to get a fresh Brutus.

IMO this needs to be changed to make it easier to continue playing with friends. Surely if a player has recorded damage against a target they can get the kill credit.

Cheers and good work GGG.

Party members need to be in the same zone to get credit, if the boss is almost dead, wait till it dies before re-spawning in town. I had something similar happen to another party member, they died and came back and the boss was dead while the others in my party kept attacking him (brutus too incidentally). Also the brutus's zone is technically the upper prison, you could reset that zone, and not need to clear the lower prison first.
