Igna can shot gun you with her fireballs how is that not strong? Not to mention as soon as you see her the lagstorm spam happens, especially on turbo. Imagine fighting turbo brutus on top of that.

You have to dance around to prevent shotguns, that's time intensive. Burn doesn't stack.

I consider lightning shotgun damage far more dangerous because crit shotgunning is just broken.
You could can survive 4 slams by brutus but a skeleton in upper prison with LMP crit can One Shot you.

The problem is how critrolling applies. Instead of each projectile rolling like every proper game does it, it's a roll per attack.

Imagine you do a draw in Poker and you instantly get a triple and crit would be triple Ace.

There is a cold snap one already. He is not fun either.

The difference between a skeleton and igna is that a skeleton has slow cast speed doesn't lag you when you encounter it.

Also if you are actually racing and not fighting a terraces Igna shes usually got more hp than your damage output so yeah..

Luckily Cold Snap on monsters got a delay just like players. That exile would be really annoying with CB Coldsnap without delays.

In CB the elem Weakness Water Elementals could freezelock you.

Yes I know about the initial alt Art lag and that's a reason I don't like to take the Avatar of Tempest Route in DC.

And cast speed doesn't matter. If you get crit shotgunned by lightning you are down.
Fire gives you a 4 sec ailment you can counter with potions.

Sure the Arcs and Sparks used by the Hybrid Exiles are weak but a lightning based exile with an Arc Totem casting same level arcs or sparks in a small corridor are something you can't counter.

How are you racing in BLAMT?
Rushing through glyphs and fighting Brutus?

BLAMT? This thread is talking about TURBO exile races. These last few weeks there have been TURBO Rogue races. This thread was started because of these races. I looked up the last few races you have done and you haven't't done any of them. So I've come to the conclusion you are just talking out of your ass and giving no further insight into this discussion we are having.

In fact the only rogue race you've done in the last 50 or so races I've seen is the 135 min lethal rogue race. I don't think you've encountered Igna, let alone turbo Igna, so I don't think you have any clue what you are talking about.

Would be fine if it occured for everyone (at all bosses, for that matter), and everyone also got the same exile with each boss. 100% of the race getting xandro with brutus and igna with merveil is fair; might only have 1% of the race make it to act 2, but its fair nonetheless.

Not fair at all, Spectral Throw would have it so much easier than double strike/heavy strike single target.

But to be honest Rithz, I would not say that this is only about turbo rogue races, but in fact any rogue race type. Rogues partying with brutus is a no go in any rogue race in my opinion.

How is this different than skill X vs skill Y in any other boss battle?
