Atziri's Spear Damage

Ok i don't understand this atleast.


I got 82% physical reduction, with nothing active as my level 92 jugg.
I think atleast 15% of that is static reduction, not coming from armor. (passives and such).
I go up to 7 endurance charges very fast (stun or hit). (which is like what? another 20 or so reduction on physical).

My molten shell gets activated with like 700 damage, and nets me another 5.5k+ shield.


I've ran Atziri, normal Atziri, this first time in this league.
That spear of her killed me like 5 different times in 1 hit.
I have zero idea how. I was sure i can tank it with this much mitigation, but no it killed me straight up.




Once or twice i died to a spell combo cause my guy is kinda slow.

HOW?

I cant kill NORMAL atziri without dying multiple times. I kill sirus 8 and uber elder without dying but not atziri. Either something is broken or more likely i am bad not avoiding something but i was not able to figure out how those spears can be avoided. Glad to know i am not alone lol.

The tooltip lying and you are using Abyssus ;)

Tooltip & Armor:
It shows your phys reduction vs trash mobs not vs bosses. Keep that in mind. Armor is capped at 10% dmg reduction of your total armor. With flasks up you are sitting at 48k armor, which means your armor can mitigate 4.8k phys dmg at best. Anything above that wont be mitigated by armor at all.


Other sources of phys mitigation:
You got 7 endus, worth 28% phys reduction - but thats conditional.
You got fortify on leap slam, worth 20% mitigation - also conditional.
You got 5% phys mitigation from your tree and 7% from your watchers eyes - unconditional.

Total mitigation before Abyssus:
60% phys mitigation, ignoring armor. This is your best case scenario
12% phys mitigation, ignoring armor. In case all your conditionals arent active.
Now Abyssus means you´ll be taking 40% inc phys dmg.

Total mitigation including Abyssus:
20% phys mitigation, ignoring armor - best case
-28% phys mitigation, ignoring armor - worst case

But its getting worse, because you have Vulnerability on hit an Atziri does reflect curses. Its a lvl11 vuln resulting in 35% inc phys dmg taken.

Total mitigation including Abyssus and reflected curse:
-15% phys mitigation, ignoring armor - best case
-63% phys mitigation, ignoring armor - worst case


If Im not mistaken Atziri does deal about 6k phys dps, which would increase to 9.78k phys dps in a worst case scenario. Your armor caps out at 4.8k dmg reduction, so you´d take about 5k dmg. Given your lifepool of 5.8k - you should survive that. Just barely, but still.
That said: In case she got slightly buffed, you´ll end up dead

But Atziri does not only reflect curses. She also reflects 2% phys and ele dmg to the attacker. Your initial hit (not even the shockwave) is about 370k dps.
2% of that is 7.4k reflected dmg, increased by 40% thx to Abyssus means 10.36k reflected dmg taken - and you are dead...

Spear is also applying bleed (physical DoT debuff).

If you are new to Atziri, read up on her Mirror Clone, which reflects damage. Usually instantly cause you to kill yourself.
