1 shotting , yeah so fun with this unbalanced bullshit

People defending bullshit. What else is new :D

IMHO, It's a symptom of having too big of a defense gap between "tanky" builds and "glasscannons", coupled with lazily designing around goddamn Alt-F4. Clearly belongs to the trash bin along with (how) reflect (works).

poe started with the philophy that you (don't have to / can't kill) every monster you encounter. "living blood" is on of the remaining relicts of that time.

the new meta of "wipe screen in one shot or gtfo" let's the old meta look clunky and unenjoyable but it had it's advantages because players needed strategies to fight certain monster affixes other than choosing the right flask.

now, the backdraws of the speedy gameplay especially show in parties which have to spread out so everybody gets something to kill at all. which is dangerous because of the limited aoe you get monster experience.

tl;dr game got too fast, i found the old slower style more enjoyable

11k Es+life combined eh? There's no way you can die in gorge with 11k total life in blue map, so maybe your ES went down and you was like with 4k life only left? Anyway, pay attention next time, use flasks or at least your brain and stop spreading bullshit, thanks.

I am not spreading bullshit lol

No? I think I saw this word in your title.

I find it unlikely, but could it be that instead of a one shot you've taken more than one hit? Maybe the succession was so fast that just seemed a one shot.

11k of burst damage under unlucky circumstances is possible without extremely tanky chars

yeah maybe , it must have been really fast in that case and if the bomb/circle thing landed 100 % on top of eachother looking like 1 bomb

Sometimes latency kills characters, it might have happened that your character was few steps behind displayed position. I sometimes want to flip the table when i die to a melee monster half screen away.

Don't stand in the red circle kind of thing, eh.

Peace,

-Boem-

yeah it was a circle thing . i was in a tight place ( gorge map ), i almost got out of the range but the whole road/path was filled with that explosions . at the edge of all of the explosions 1 of them caught me . almost safe , but almost dont do shit.

off topic but a blood monster having fire magic is kinda silly , why not corrupting blood it would fit the monsters look way better imo ,

Haha wait a minute. So you did not get 1-shot. You died because you made a mistake. Plain and simple. You live and you learn. /thread.

lol yeah has happened me too , but it was not that this time

Wow, your initial descriptions threw me off. What you are now describing is Flame Bearers. And they do hit hard and often you are stuck getting hit with several. But you can't call that a 1-shot. Why? Because just like Vaal's Slam, just like Kole's hit, just like all the other big damage hits in the game, you are given warning before it happens. You didn't read the monster mods. You didn't move off the explosions. Blaming the game for avoidable deaths is lazy. Face it, you were cocky and thought you were invincible so you played carelessly. This game is unforgiving if you're careless.
