**Platform, device version and operating system:**  
Winows 7 / Steam

**Screenshot or image:**  
I wish I had captured before and after - I didn’t expect this to happen

**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:**  
That winning even with a Mimic chest win for a full Explore set that it would count a complete Explorer run in Tasks, but it didn’t

**Steps to make it happen again**  
Getting Mimic Chest for Boss chest ends up not counting task in Tasks chart

**How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?**  
Get a task - say this week’s Intrepid Explorer - Win Explore runs  
Finish an entire level run (4 wins + mini boss + Mythic Boss wins - Open Boss Chest and get Mimic - And fight that battle and win  
Check Task counter -

Did not increase by one. Was still at 1 of 4

It counts a complete explore run as soon as you finish the boss battle, or mini boss if you don’t have enough mythstones. Whether you get mimic doesn’t affect the task counter, it already increased by 1

Well it didn’t cause it was still at 1 and this was the second of 4 rounds 🙂

Hence why I reported it.
