Antik.7486 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Hi, i recently came back to the game (bought couple of months after official release, left 2 months before HoT release) and i noticed that damage numbers became quite ridiculous. Almost every encounter is an insta death because i'm getting hit by 5k hits every time like it's nothing special. Maybe my gear is outdated but back then having 3k armor would usually mean you can live more than 5s before bitting the dust. Am i missing something?

TrollingDemigod.3041 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Game was powercreeped a lot with HoT release and with PoF release. A-net in last balance patch shaved a bit damage, but it's still far from enough. Damage is still overtuned, so ya. 3k armor now means that instead of getting 10k dmg you'll get 8k or so. Same goes for condis, sustain etc etc... Welcome back I guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antik.7486 Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 Sad, oh well, i hope they nerf damage back to a more reasonable point, these insta kill fights aren't fun at all if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are you getting insta killed? What are you playing? And what is insta killing you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Class? Build? Equipment? What was hitting you so hard? Do you have a video or screen of combat log? If you think it's bad now, LOL, good thing you were not here before the last patch, as spike dmg has been brought way down from where it was and had been since POF release.

The damage was already nerfed a month ago. Look for the patch notes for the numbers :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steki.1478 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 So you recently came back (probably have no idea what you're doing), rely only on your gear to defend you (rather than blocks, dodges, condi cleanse, kiting, healing, CC...you know, active defense that was the main defensive mechanism since day 1) while also saying that you're constantly being hit by 5k on 3k armor (what I rarely experience even on my glass ele). Yes, you're missing on a lot of practice, experience and reflexes. I'd suggest fixing your build first (metabattle is a decent place for that) then figuring out how your build works and practice it more. It's way too easy to survive on every class after the latest patch so it's not really about the damage output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sovereign.1093 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 Damage been nerfed. Heals been nerfed. Players need to do reverse of social distancing to live. Burst damage is universal on all games. Mmo type games. No matter how tanky a player is they can and would coordinate to do the bomb to give out the best effect. The basis is so the enemy does not have the time to heal. So how do you counter? Got to ask why am I not doing so well here? It helps. Outwitting the enemy works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infusion.7149 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 5K damage isn't instakill on its own. Feb 25 patch cut damage 30-40% across the board , even if they cut it another 40% you'd still die if you take damage from more than 5 people. For example if you take 3K damage from 10 people it is still 30K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how things are in all games. From ro to ran to rose to Warcraft to fps. Bursts is a tried and tested method Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
