Return of the Hydra Glitch?

Was recently questing in Aquila when I encountered a glitch with the Hydra fight from "The Chains that Bind" quest. After a quick google search to see if I was missing anything mechanic wise, I found that there was a similar glitch back in 2014. Now, it says it got patched, yet here in 2018 I have the same problem. After the Ebon head flees combat, once it returns I am unable to fight it. It can hit me, but I cannot directly attack it, nor hit it with an first strikes, overwatch, bladestorms, etc. Anyone else having the same issue?

Many players have this issue. Despite many attempts by KI "bug fixers" this glitch has never gone away. It also doesn't show for all battles, the best I can advise is to try again and maybe not hit the Ebon head with everything you have in the first round.

Question for the developers: Why is this topic in the New Pirate Welcome Category? Wouldn't this go in The Bilge Pump?

Great catch, you're right! We're moving it.
