Undecided outcome in Arena

[Ziggurath]

I was fighting a creature, fire mephit I believe, and had drunk a regenerating potion. For three times in a row, I was struck down (as in going under 0 hp) and then revived by the potion. In the end I killed the mephit, but there was no lightning effect nor would the doctor or the quest giver react in any meaningful way if talked to. They were in the belief that I was still to fight the enemy, despite the fact that it was dead.

8th level character, not in party

I had a similar problem today. I lost a fight, and both relevant NPCs acted as though the fight was still taking place or was still to take place. Oddly, it was still registering a hostile NPC in the area thereafter, so it seems like the guy may have got stuck in a crawlspace somewhere or was hiding in the sand.

I'll just wait until a reset and see what happens.

I'll look at it this weekend.

Did you also use a healing potion or regen spell that recovered you from 0 xp?

Nope. I guess the only real similarity is that we both weren't able to proceed.

The hostile NPC preventing rest in the arena area is a imp in a cage out front.

It's rather annoying for spectators in the stands, as you can't access the emote menu while it's around.

[sirius]

Oh, I didn't realise any of the caged creatures were actually hostile. Ignore that part

I don't doubt that this was growing screwy at one point that weekend, but I have not been able to reproduce it. Please keep and eye out for the "difference that makes a difference" if it happens again.
