I’m just going to post this here, now. Rough stats, 33k health sorc, 8k armor, res capped, 31k attack…getting one-shot by bosses in the mid 30s pit while still trying to get masterwork mats.
I mean, this COULDN’T have been intended, right? Someone must have just pressed the “have bosses blanket the field with AOE slows and then let other things show up with attacks that instantly kill if they’re not avoided perfectly, even though players still have to use the same controls for both attack and movement ha ha ha oops so it’s not like it’s super precise anyway” button, right?
SOMEONE accidentally pressed the “make the one shot brown whirlwinds the same color as most of the floors” button, right?
SOMEONE hit the “I forgot this is an ARPG open to the gamut of casuals and diehards and everyone should at least be able to gear without massive headache, but let’s pretend it’s Dark Souls instead” button, right?
Yeah in all seriousness when people say IT’S SUPPOSED TO BE HARD HUR DUR DUR yes it is - but it shouldn’t be NONSENSICALLY UNBALANCED until AFTER say, mid-60s or low-70s, so people can gear reasonably and actually have fun doing so, without being forced into broken builds or stacking 500k health.
I’m going to assume this is a bug, and I’m going to assume it will be fixed. An absolute blight on what is otherwise one hell of a good update.
