Cannibal/ Flame Cannibal monster projectile DMG is Overtuned.

title.


I am scared of this thing, I can safely mitigate other extraordinary skills from unique bosses, or pinnacle bosses, or even bonkers rares. But these guys even if they are magic pack or normal pack, they hurt like a brick.

\\ please nerf them. TY

POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
==================
I had the same sudden death problems with cannibals.

Therefore I changed my build several times to find a solution for the problem. After the following 3 changes I survived for the first time a T16 map with Cannibal monster groups.

1) Because the cannibals caused a sudden death, I assumed that the first cannibal hit killed me. Therefore I changed my major Pantheon from LUNARIS to SOLARIS. Here
KITAVA guarantees "8% reduced elemental damage if I haven't been hit recently".

2) My old build had only 0% "Estimated chance to evade attacks". I changed my build to 50% evade chance.

3) My new build has better life/energyshield (old: 4382/1393, new: 5150/1422)

I don't know whether all 3 changes are necessary to avoid the sudden death. Perhaps it also works with one or two of them. Please try and survive :)

Other stats:

I found this thread via a search engine with the prompt -
"PoE, cannibals are overtuned".

I'm doing a Strand map T16 with these modifiers:
Players cannot inflict exposure
Players are curse with Temp Chains
Monsters have 77% chance to avoid elemental ailments
Monsters deal 108% extra physical damage as fire
73% quant, 44% rarity, 19% pack size.

My resists:
84% Fire (115%)
80% Cold (111%)
81% Lightning (130%)
76% Chaos (76%)

84% Estimated Physical Damage Reduction
80% Spell Suppression Chance
100% chance to avoid all elemental ailments
70% chance to block attack damage (+ lucky block takes it to 91%)
62% chance to block spell damage (+ lucky block takes that to 86%

Cannot be stunned
Immune to Poison

Major Pantheon, fully upgraded Soul of Arakali
Minor Pantheon, fully upgraded Soul of Garukhan

I frequently do all 15 waves of Simulacrum (Deathless).

The fire cannibals in this easy map are more dangerous than Kosis and Omniphobia in the final waves of Simulacrum.

It's ridiculous how overtuned the Cannibals are.

Also adding my 2 cents: I have a lvl 99 Jugg with 82% max fire resistance and 7 endurance charges. This mob instantly melts my character before I recognize they're on the map. Something's clearly not right behind the scenes.
