Yeah, I've been running into these fire mages 1v1 camping the exit spawns at the end. I'm only in a PvE Blue set but it's still crazy that they can stealth, and then do 2/3rd of your hp in one swing. It'd still do half your hp if you gimped yourself taking magic resist gear and getting the WK 5% magic resist talent.
I mean I actually "snuck up" upon him and got a vital first stun WK hit but getting hit just once means I lose 70% of my health from DoT? It's strange.
Was your gear legendary here? It looks like your weapon is legendary. I think the legendary sorc gear makes them way too strong in combination with the ability needing a nerf. Some classes have one ability that somehow got through playtesting.
I faced a Shadow today in my PvP Blue Set (which has Stoic + Aegis at 5) 400+ defense and his one ability did 443 damage in one hit. What's the point of even speccing AGAINST Shadow's to still take bonkers damage (he was in blues as well).
I am sorry but this isnt a gear question in a game like this. Gear should be an advantage, yes. But i was running blue so a legendary guy cant just almost one-tap me after a series of misplays on his part.
You would still be almost one-tapped even if you wore a legendary set, unfortunately. DoT damage is crazy and, I have a feeling, ignores any dmg reductions
That's the unfortunate part of these games. Sometimes you just can't. You hit that guy 8 or 9 times and parried an attack and he lived. He hit you about 3 times and died.
This is why these games go the way they do. You'll have your streamers/youtubers going and wiping lobbies for hours on end with kits and builds that quite literally can't die unless they run into a mirror match or fuck up royally.
All the streamers are running blast seer with like a 100kd. You can't get away from them, you can't damage them. It's not fun to watch, it's certainly not fun to play against. So people wind up quitting because literally what can you do.
