Spectral soul not working on Mephisto part 2

So I already asked about this and kabam vydius responded and said that the boost won't reverse his regen because Mephisto is immune to damage during that time.
Cool I understand that. But he also said that the boost still acts as a heal block to prevent him from regenerating which is not the case.
I can clearly see him regenerating A LOT when his regen kicks in.
Since this boost is active for 15m shouldn't it heal block him throughout the entire fight completelt during those 15 minutes or is there another catch I'm missing that's making this boost useless.
You can even watch Seatin fighting him with that boost on and he still regened on him.
I was going to ask kabam vydious specifically but don't see any option to contact a mod so I made a new post.
Any clarification on this?

Heal reversal is probably coded in such a way that it doubles the magnitude of the healing, and then apply it in reverse. So in normal circumstances, the end product is a degeneration of the same amount, but what the programme actually does is that the character still regens x amount, but it gets cancelled by -2x worth of degeneration.
Apply the same code (because Kabam is too lazy to recode it) on Mephisto, and you will end up with him regenerating Y amount, and a -2Y worth of regeneration damage is applied on him. Of course, the geniuses also made him immune to damage at this point, so the -2Y of regen has no effect, while the Y amount of regen continues.
Which leads me to my next question to Kabam: what exactly is the Spectre Soulf Boost for in the event then, if not to counter Mephisto?
Working as intended?
Not a bug.
Perhaps you were unlucky and you triggered Mephisto's regen while it was off. This would also explain the few scenarios where people said some souls didn't heal him and some souls did, since it probably switched on or off while he was consuming them.
So yep, it isn't a bug
So why doesn't it state that in the boost's description???
How the hell am I supposed to know it's not active all the time???
I swear whoever designed this game might be just out of preschool!
Not only the game is broken beyond repair it seems you can't even design it properly!
This is the most incompetent company in the history of business!

Well I finished master 100%. 2 revives until I figured the **** out.
I softened him up with R5 Hulk and finished him up with R5 Quake.
Used the fierce boost mostly.
Could probably just do it with Quake but I had a full team so I figured what the hell
The fierce boost you mean. And it works perfectly. In fact I felt stupid not using any of these event boosts before. Now I have over 50 of them just lying around. That fierce boost with a R4 5* Magik made master a breeze.
I'm still beating Memphis to without the fierce boost, but it's taking more resources than I'd like (about 300 units per fight). And with the crappy new arena crystals it's much harder to replenish my units than it used to be.
Just checked and fierce does work on Mephisto. I tested now on heroic cause I do completion and it works fine.
