one shots from YELLOW mobs that have no ANIMATIONS need to be removed

the fact that certain YELLOW con mobs have these one shot mechanics


WITH ZERO ANIMATION CUES IS unacceptable.

I can accept if i die because i played incorrectly, but when im whacking on a mob and all of a sudden im dead and I dont even know why has to change.

These mobs have no attack animations at all, and then you are 100-0.


change it

In before the forums police tell you to "git gud" and gain skillz.

I particularly dislike the ones that spawn on top of you in the locked boxes.

Heck I had today something crazy happen where the locked box and the ritual were on top of each other. Had 2 guys spawn with volatile plants and bubbles and it was over.

again

i can understand if i made a mistake, however, many there are certain yellow, rare mobs that one shot you with ZERO indication of the attack they are doing.

its especially punishing for melee.

What are your defenses? What were the map mods?

Generally rares don't one-shot unless you are running obviously rippy maps or just have a terribly built character.

+1 Agreed!

Boss, Uniques that have mechanics, telegraph are one thing... now white, blue and some yellow mobs have no indication they will eat you alive.

git gud police will hit soon, but some things in PoE 2 is just unfinished, the hope is that it will be fixed soon.

To be fair with the OP, his setup might be flawless, those OHKO from commom (no Boss, no Unique) will happen even with perfect defenses.

I was running a Monk with 75% all resists, 80% Evasion, around 50% Chaos resist, HP/ES mid to high, Wind Dancer, Ghost Dance, Grim Feast... and stunlocking screens... still WHITE mobs were killing from nowhere... WHITE mobs.

im an 79 invoker monk

0 armor, but
68% phys resist
62% fire resist
48% cold
75% lightning

im CI so no chaos resist
im running

ghost shroud
windancer
grim feast

76% evasion

2780 energy shield, of which i have the passive that uses life pots to heal it

these fights usually commence with me thoroughly beating the mob in question, im at 100 es, then at some point im 100-0.

as far as map mods im not sure-- but its using yellowed waystones

ordinarily i wouldnt care, but when you are using the scarce waystone maps that this game only occasionaly drops, and now the whoel map is bricked, i care.

its not a once off either---- it happens a lot with these yellow rares.

I havent played POE 1 is a long time, but I know they implemented a damage type that bypasses ES and ignored it-- and that happened to me too over there.

However, I dont think that mob mechanic is implemented in POE2.

My biggest issue here is that

THE MOB HAS NO ANIMATION SO YOU DONT EVEN KNOW YOU ARE ABOUT TO GET 1 shot-- thats my gripe

Uncapped res and low ES with CI... there's your problem.

how so?

if the mob DOESNT EXHIBIT ANY ANIMATION indicating that he is attacking?

if he did i would fking move.

also

at my level, with no real clue about htf to make in game currency, or a streamer 1000% rare drop client

i have 18 exalts to my name so far-- thats it.


I spent 24 exalts and vaal orbs trying to make a gdamn 5 link gem, and got

NONE

so all my gems are three slots, and i cant afford the 1 divine++++ price tag to buy gear that will give me dfense and conver my resists.


oh make gear you say?


hotf you gomna make gear with hardly any exalts and regal orbs? or any other currency for that matter.


the only thing diablo does better than this is crafting.

+1 just happened to my geared out char, res maxed blah blah... yellow off screen, didn't see it until it walked into frame after I was dead. Just one-tap. Can only avoid so many map mods and still sustain when t15s drop t5s half the time.

The huge ape has this exact sort of bullshit and he's an actual boss. The roll he does insta kills you and has 0 startup, it's insta roll and insta kill
