Ropalolyst is still immortal

[FenricFox]

There isn't a lot to be said: I get to the final stage (after crashing the thing into all three pillars), and the Ropalolyst cannot ever be "downed". I take off all of its health and it stands still for a moment before it all regenerates.  This repeats until I run out of ammo and have to give up.

It doesn't seem to matter if I play other missions first, or if the ropalolyst is the first thing I try.

I doesn't seem to matter if I kill the "extra" enemies or not.

It doesn't seem to matter which order I do the pillars in.

Once you deplete it's life, you have to use the console to activate the big laser before it regenerates.

When I say "a moment", that's what I mean: there's no "before it regenerates" - maybe half a second, tops. I've been standing in front of the console and hit "X" as fast as I can, and there isn't enough time for the "use" animation to finish and the firing sequence to start. On every other stage you a few seconds between depleting the health and it regenerating. My complaint is that I very repeatedly do not get so much as an entire second. 

This is not the way it used to be: I got Wisp back when the gas city rework was released. I'm trying to get a second copy now to feed to Helminth, and it has been very frustrating.

Oh. Well, I guess I misunderstood. I farmed it for a second Wisp for Helminth (solo and before the Deimos update, mind you) and didnt had any problems.

I know that the Ropealoly fight code is held together by overcooked spaghetti and breaks pretty much every other update (even more if you try to do it with a squad), so that might be the case again.

I can confirm this. I have tried it 6 times in the last 2 days. With and without others. As soon as his health is gone ... it comes back to full in the time it takes you to shoot him again. The is no pressing the button. He is immortal.
