I've rolled a witch doctor this season with the helltooth set. I'm running the build with pets. 3 smaller gargantuans and 4 zombie dogs for damage. When i encounter any type of Primordial Scavenger they take no damage at all or they don't change into the other form. My friends have no problem killing them or getting them to change. I know they block and how they work, but the mechanic seems to not be working properly with my build. I can do darts with fetishes and have no problems with this mob. I would really like you to look into it if possible. thanks in advance.
I though you only broke their armour with crits? Like, just one or two crits would break it. When I ran my U6 monk with BP it were very noticeable when BP hadn't procced. I just couldn't burn through that armour, but one hit from a crit just shattered it.
Just a "on the move" observation from previous patch mixed with opinion. Most likely not the case but if someone could confirm or deny this I'd be happy.

have you tried to post this on the official bug-report forum ?
Primordial Scanvenger´s shield only take damage from the WD source, not from your pets.
When the shield breaks pets can do the job. Pretty nasty shit design.
And, yes, I had the same thing going like OP, so I actually just skipped that type of mobs.

Gargantuan bash do 0 damage, Critical dont show up cus pets hits nothing, pretty shame to see this happening.
This scavenger armor comes from an ancient tecnology lost in time and space, something from another universe.
