Damage from monsters is too high
|
"No! Offense is the best defense. My build have over 6k life, 10k armour, 69% phys reduction, 79% all res, max chaos resist, 75/69 block chance before any flasks. And I still get one shot to random shit like invisible nob, spiked latency, lag/ disconect etc. This game has turned into a glorious bug mess over the years. Better kill them before they have any chance to inflict damage on you.
Today I did 30 shaper runs and die 4 times. All 1 shot. Spiked pings, invisible Shaper, desync, you name it. Should've keep uping my dps instead and insta phase him like before. The same going for Guardians/ Elder/ any mob really. Defense mean little (either 0 or 100, RNG is a bitch) if you're not playing HC." I wasn't going to follow up on my combat log comment but this is a good segue. It might sound a bit tin foil hatty but I often wonder if the reason GGG won't give us a combat log is because they don't want us to see what's in it because it might reveal problems they know about but can not or will not fix.

" So you are saying that some max res and block is not a sure fire counter against lags/bad internet? Oh jeez, who would have thought. I honestly don't know what's funnier, the fact that you actually use your bad internet as an argument for defense being useless or the fact that you think a bit of resists and avoidance should make you immortal. This forum never ceases to amaze me. Last edited by Baharoth15#0429 on May 20, 2021, 6:28:44 PM

Defense of average player is dogshit.
I represent only myself, my own thought and believes. I am individual, not a representative of the community.
I am not speaking on behalf of someone else and I don't get offended by things that have nothing to do with me. 3.13 was the golden age. |

"  Sure white knight. Keep licking those boots, maybe they will make you a common mob some day, carrying their banner around and honoring their cheap, lazy game design of one shot, after dead effects, tripling monster HP. Literally the only way GGG nowadays could come up with. Pathetic game balancing. Who talk about immortal in a game that always try to kill you? Only fools would think such way. But I want a death that I can understand, a death that I can learn from. These deaths bring nothing. Meaningless and worthless. Like your words.

" There is no such thing as "Invincible Builds" anymore in POE.. Those died with the change to 90% Max Res. Its doesn't matter how "Invincible" you make a build these days unless you make so little damage you take hours you accomplish things other builds do in minutes you WILL get one shot once the stars align. I've made builds that were able to soak and AFK everything in the game before and STILL get one shot the right situations. Even if you make one of those so called Invincible Builds you still have so many other factors to take into account that you can and will eventually get wrecked at some point unless you not only make a well made build with multiple layers of defenses but, also roll your maps in such a way you reduce the risk of death to near nothing. But, then that's also where things like Loot and Exp come into play because the most dangerous maps you roll tend to also be the most profitable as well. THATS what gets 95% of people killed on even the most tanky builds. Especially once you reach level 97+ and want to milk as much exp per map as possible but, also not die at any and all costs.. Double Beyond says hello. "Oh man this map has 135% Quant... But, fuck man its also got 60% recovery or its got Double Ele Conversion and im running Awaken 9 But man i know this map with the way i have it rolled otherwise and my sextants i have rolled right now and my watchstones will make it worth it and have tons of mobs and exp and loot i just have to be really careful..." And then you make that decision that gets you killed. Ask me how i know... Point is to the OP... do mobs deal too much damage? There's a couple outliers but, for the most part no.. not till you get greedy and roll your maps in such a way they become the most overpowered thing you've ever seen in the game. Just part of the Risk vs Reward. Which is regardless of how well made your build is.. There is a fine line between Consideration and Hesitation. The former is Wisdom, the latter is Fear.

It's more that players do too much damage and also do it too quickly.
In 3.12 to 3.14 a lot of passive Defense layers were removed from Ascendancie well as movement. Easy picks like Hardened Scars, Glancing Blows or Divine Flesh were also nerfed. It's kinda obvious GGG has been trying to crack down on easy Defense. This is also a very defensive league. 77% Max Res and 6k isn't enough at all. By comparison lvl 93 I'm running 7.5k HP, 70%/48% Block (Non-Glancing), 90% Physical DR (~15% is Armor), 78% Max Res, 25%Dodge/Spell and 27% Evasion. 5 Endurance charge so Immortal Call is up layering with Enduring Cry and charges ~80% of the time during an Ultimatum. When those layer my Physical eHP shows like 1.4mil, 180k Elemental. Still clears fine with mediocre gear at like 1.2mil DoT DPS which needs upgrading. Yea though. Every build should have Physical DR. Always has. Ele boost prolly the only mod that spooks me for obv reasons. Personally think it scales too high.

" True that. I actually had a pathfinder once with 100% all res including phys with legacy 40% lightning coil and legacy ToH up. Still died to pen bosses like uber atziri. Double flame blast boom ...one shot. Anyway nowdays it's about stack EHP and layers. Something like this https://pastebin.com/NtDHJ987 it's nearly impossible to die with millions ehp. Pnly a slight entry fee tho lol. I'll never make 100 because I enjoy rolling kind of maps you're talking about always. Plus 2000 boring ass maps is not my idea of "fun" Git R Dun!

" Sorry whiney but nobody said anything about their game design being good, it is pretty lame that's a fact. But it's also a fact that none of the things you consider lame design killed you. You got killed by your shitty internet and you expect that your mediocre defenses save you from that which is akin to being immortal. No matter how dumb the game is, your post beats it by a mile. |

" Perhaps you should give Technical Support and Bug Report a shot rather than pulling stuff out of your arse. Perhaps you should know better and improve your characters beyond the "mediocre" barrier, no?. Spent too much playing the forum instead of the game I supposed. No wonder what's came from me become dumber in your mouth, you understand nothing. It's meaningless arguing with you. |
