5* IM ignoring AoE

When Iron Boss has his house party up, he's not getting hit with AoE attacks. (Specifically CoS from Thor.) and judging by damage, the drones aren't taking any extra

::accounting that one jumps in front of the big hit, and 2nd gets a lesser hit; iron boss isn't getting any share of damage::

    This has been a problem with savior abilities and aoes with extra damage for the primary target for some time. The saving character doesn't take the extra damage and the primary target takes none. It happens with Deadpool's life of the party too.

    Is 5* IM the target in front when you launch your AOE attack? If so, it appears he won't take any damage. However, if you have one of the drones in front, then 5* IM should take some damage. (I experienced similar troubles when 5* IM was the character in front when I fired GSBW's Sniper Rifle. Making sure one of the drones was in front was how I "fixed" this.)
