Working as intended.
Seriously, if you look carefully, Ark 99ers will periodically generate a yellow honeycomb patterned force sphere identical to the one we get when being supported by a Spanner Protector. As long as that force sphere is up you're not going to be doing much damage to them. I've noticed however that if I toss a flashbang grenade on them while the force sphere is up they start taking damage as before and by the time the effect from the grenade wears off the sphere is gone.
In general, I use flashbang grenades liberally on Ark 99ers. I go through at least 20 of them on the Co-Op map and it makes things much easier because it's both mass crowd control, gives everyone's weapons a damage boost against the shields and it shuts down shield regeneration. I wish there was an electrical counterpart to the Incinerator but the flashbang grenades are the next best thing.
