Are eidolons just broken?

Bug

So I got rather good at eidolon hunting mainly from trying to get the waybound stuff unlocked. ( I’m talking solo all three maybe 75 percent of the time. The first two 100 percent of the time) Which after I got 4 out of 5 unlocked I stopped. Well the completionist itch needs scratching and I’m trying to finish out my last way bound. Which of course leads me to eidolon hunting.

Did something change? Is it broken ?

I ask this as being able to capture an eidolon teralyst in about 7 minutes (if my memory serves me correctly) pretty consistently at this point I thought “aight I’m gunna grab a couple brilliant shards just to have them”

Get in grab my a couple of lures turn 1-2 of them blue then go after terry Only to find that terry gets tuckered out after one round. Drops a standard shards and doesn’t teleport away just straight up dies.

What’s going on? Checked the wiki the strategy hasn’t changed… tried searching for it and everyone is complaining about public hunting … I’m doing this solo so it has nothing to do with a teammate messing it up I know I’m following procedures.

I first noticed this right after the Follie update. Where I was helping a friend with eidolon hunting. And bless him he has rampant ADHD so I thought “alright maybe my buddy did something wrong or something no big deal I made mistakes when first started out on this. “

But I just went to run it solo and it just dies after I blow its shoulder off. So what’s going on ? I have video of what’s happening if doubts arise (if PlayStation actually lets me use the footage….)
But seriously why is it broken …..
