Bug with Saeral the hungry?

[Graf von Scyth]

Not sure if this is a bug or a feature.
I know she's meant to be the most end game boss in the whole quest, so she's supposed to be extremely difficult but I'm experiencing some EXTREMELY strange phenomena dealing with her.
Every so often she buffs herself with various effects, including haste which buffs her speed and gives her another turn much quicker.
Almost every single time she does this, I hit her with either Sullivan's equaliser or Chaska's Humiliator and I get a big graphic of all of her buffs melting away.
Problem is, that her new turn that she got by casting haste doesn't go away. So even though I've removed the buff that granted her extra speed, she retains that speed.
And this just results in her accelerating like a f*ckin train until she's going every other turn and I can't stop it.
So I can't help but wonder if she might be bugged, and that equaliser and humiliator just aren't working for whatever reason even though the graphics are showing it.
It also seems to be the same for her preparation, even if I dispell it, it still seems to do more damage regardless.
Meteor without preparation: about 4-5K damage
Meteor with preparation: About 8k-10K damage
Meteor with preparation but I've dispelled it with equaliser: about 8k-10K damage
And this almost universally results in her killing Chaska or Corwin or both, and there's nothing that I can do about it, because she keeps accelerating and having turns more often, so without Corwin... everyone dies before I can revive him and use renew.

I get that she's supposed to be ridiculously hard, but this doesn't look like intentional difficulty, given the graphic of the skills being dispelled. This looks like something's broken.

I agree, I have also noticed this. Magical barrier also has no effect against her meteor spell. I feel as if I am wasting my turns casting this stuff if she is only going to ignore it.

yeach, tech or magic don't protect and after a moment reduction so hard you're damage. i hit 4000 without crit normal ennemis, i hit her 500-750 pv.
i lose the first try with preparation + meteor who kill 4/5 my team with 5 k to life ...

i try reduced her tech or magic def, no see different. Try stun, silence, blind, paralaysis, poison, bleed ... No one pass.
Never break this buff too

This boss is always set at hard difficulty, no matter what difficulty you set(easy or normal).
I have no problem at defeating her. Magic Barrier can reduce the damage from Meteor, too.

By the way, enemies in Arena are also be set at hard difficulty, even if you're in easy or normal.
