Oh, I've never played HC. Is backtracking RIP really a thing? Can you explain to us SC guys?

Monster targets where you were.... you walk back to where you were. Dead. Run circles. Hallways cause problems.

Ah thanks. Hmmm, better to blast mobs offscreen.

Killing shit before it can hit you was always the best defence.

Ziz really needs to learn when to stop playing with altars and adding more damage to enemies on his atlas. One of the major points of this update was to make altars more dangerous so people would read them and know when to stop, and then allowed players to make them even more dangerous with atlas passives. The fact that adding extra damage in several different ways to enemies is allowing them to one shot characters isn't surprising, know what you can handle and when to stop. There's nothing wrong with base enemy damage this league as far as I can tell, at least after the AN mods were nerfed a few times. A few mods are far too tanky, but the damage is lower than ever without stacking auras.

Other poster covered it really but running in a circle is ~ 100% avoidance on most enemies, melee or ranged etc so you never want to target an attack where you were then walk back into it.

Almost all deaths to revenants for example as common as they are are backtracking, if you don't backtrack you very rarely ever stay on any boomboom effect long enough to get hit by it, really is a thing.

looks like the mob that killed ziz did chaos damage, so 1/3 of his ehp was ignored

i cant really say how overtuned that mob was but generally these random ass deaths is something that is typically exclusive to ziz and no other prominent hc streamer

you can watch how alk plays and its like hes playing a different game. his gameplay is only slightly slower than everyone else's and yet thats all it takes to have chill gameplay with no random bullshit like what you see here

edit: o and he also plays marauder/duelist builds, you know the shit that everyone memes about, yea it turns out melee ascendencies are actually tanky despite popular belief

No one ever said Marauder/Duelist isnt tanky. Its damage that they are missing(in HC enviroment), not defences.

1. i had many people tell me otherwise
2. the damage is there

Yes, if you make them into glass cannon. Then the damage is there and its lacking defense.
Why do you think DD is most played skill on HC? Because you can pu everything int odefenses and still have insane dmg (because its scales from hp of the corpse)

the damage is there even with all those defenses dont tell me what happens and doesnt happen in hc thank you
