Fortress pulse-explosion
|
Wth is wrong with this damage?
What damage type is it? All of a sudden it 1-shot me. I had 2.3k HP and 1.5k ES, 100% spell suppression. How did it one-shot me? It was the very first pulse as well, I didn't even manage to leave the "main square area". This pulse damage needs to be explained and/or nerfed. It's not logical.

Completely agree,character1 3k hp 70% lucky suppress and character2 3k hp, 1.7k es and MoM.
character 1 gets oneshot consistently and character 2 gets chunk leaving me with no mana and ~40% hp left. the pulse is ABSURD. |

" Oh for me it's not consistently. It happened once, almost like it had insane crit multiplier? |

I experienced it again, so this time I quickly started recording when I felt the damage being absurd

My guess is that the pulse is affected by map mods.
Since u have phys as extra chaos damage and increased crit chance+damage on ur map it might hit way harder, especially with -26% chaos res. PoE2 0.3 Character: https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/abyss/character/Sadaukar-2191/Acidic_Sadaukar

This is insane to me, the mobs are as weak as trash mobs and never touches me but this pulse can oneshot me without any way to counter it. and the best is that when you die cause of this pulse you get no graftblood reward even if you destroyed the thing. That's super bad. it's the only mech that shit on you when you die and it feels awfull when you can't avoid it.
I would prefer a lot to have a challenge doing the thing than this...This is really bad for this only reason: no counterplay possible (get shit on for completing an event feels so bad) |

Your life and ES combined value isn't even worthy of T1 maps, and you're surprised about getting 1shot by something in a T16 map?
PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.
Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build! And the winds will cry / and many men will die / and all the waves will bow down / to the Loreley |

" My ES disappeared, so it wasn't chaos that killed me. " I can only assume you are new to the game. I can handle juiced T17 scarab farm maps. |

I dont even know how people die to this.
Character must just be the issue not the mechanic. Mash the clean

it probably is 1000-2000 physical damage
i have around 20000 armor and those pulse waves were almost no harm to me |
