Green pools NEED to be undertuned
Look at this:
![]() Now look at my stats: ![]() I'm with 82% armor, capped at all elemental resistances and have at least 78% on magic damage reduction. And, yet, I'm beign IKed by the centesimal time this season by a monster with this green pool of waste. I know 2k life is not much, but this is the only thing that kills me instantly at this momment and mostly because I'm a melee and there's no way to build resists to it. GGG need to put at least something to craft on the Abyss to do it or, else, greatly reduce the damage of these stuff. Last bumped on Sep 7, 2025, 1:47:15 AM

the green pools are physical damage over time. Meaning armor doesn't apply, since it isn't a hit. look for Additional physical damage taken reduction.
edit: to be clear, I also think they are a little too deadly, and not easy enough to see. they blend right into the floor. Last edited by Black_Mage#2023 on Sep 6, 2025, 1:37:24 PM

" That means Jade Inheritance would reduce it's damage? |

The biggest issue with all these lingering/ground damage and such is that they are hard to see sometimes. You would think as deadly pool of acid would be more bright and luminous on the screen, and your character also doesn't even really make any sound or reaction to standing in the stuff either.

" It's beign a nightmare to be a melee warrior because of them. I'm on the way to sacrifice something like 20% of my damage to change some items and get more life, as I can't change enything else on the passives for MORE survivability. |

" yes jade would reduce it aswell as a shield with Physical damage reduction on it. Usually you would use regen to mitigate it aswell but it appears one of pools from abyss also disable your recovery (Why?????) so that's not an option. Last edited by Esmat#7982 on Sep 7, 2025, 1:33:04 AM

To be honest 2k health isn't a lot at all, I have that on my monk at 70 along with 1700 ES but I'm still not going to just stand in the fire and try to fight. Anyone that has played an MMO would tell you that is straight up suicidal. Oh and my monk is melee for the most part, only have range if I have power charges to spend on Falling Thunder.
