PQs, Fighters, and Wards.

    Berserker. 40k+ Mit, 70% UB. 55mil+ health.

    And in Plane of Innovation PQ, if I do not have a shaman in the group, I pop like a balloon. With a templar, fury, and a channeler in my group (all excellent players), I pop like a balloon.

    With a defiler who does literally nothing but hit Carrion Warding (group ward), I don't die once.

    When grouped with a brigand and inquisitor, I can have agro on 10 mobs, die, and the BRIGAND stays alive just fine.

    All because of that dragon tree ward that all scouts, priests, and mages get.

    But not fighters.

    After dying 22 times - TWENTY-TWO TIMES - in a single PQ, felt I needed to speak up. I know other people I play with that play fighters have complained of the same thing. Some don't even bring their fighters to the PQs anymore and run scouts/mages/priests instead.

    Please fix.

    This is not okay.

    I have the same issue. 50Mil HPs, 34k Mit, 58% UB and I have had mobs hit me for 50-70 Mil. I quit doing PQs for that very reason. Also, the AFK people free loading on other peoples hard work.


    Edit: Stuff.

    Mobs in the Inno PQ have bugged riposte damage. Reforge to 100% strikethrough solves that mostly.

    And there would be less freeloading people if if wasn't just a handful classes that were able to do decent damage in there because only autoattack (inquisitor, summoners) and a couple epic 2.0 damage procs are meaningful.

    Is it autoattack or a specific ability doing so much damage in the Innovation PQ?

    Not sure, but have same issue. massive one shots happen to my fighters in PQs...the other classes self ward eats it and they move on. If someone doesn't capture it, I'll get a log of next PQ I do on fighter

    I have often wondered why my monk goes splat in PQ when pulling mobs to the seeds by my troub lives fine ... tbh im not sure what causes it ill have to look at my damage logs to confirm next time I do one , but I suspect its coming from the "dot" effect ticks

    In disease it's the noxious detriment.
    In others it's not clear but it's been ages I haven't done PQ. Got the coins I wanted, and stopped. I don't have fun there (do no damage die instant) so why waste my time ?

    It's riposte damage in Inno PQ.
    The Nox dots in Disease PQ also hurts a lot though.

    Ouch, 46,741,226 damage, that's going to leave a mark! Glad I don't go to PQs,
  10. Bolbir Active Member

    Seing zerkers being more squishy this expansion. But weird the defilers basicly have to do nothing to keep you alive???
  11. Gninja Developer

    I have a change in for next update which should reduce the reposte damage across all PQs in PoP.

    "reduce the reposte damage .."

    lol that explains why monk goes splat :p has anyone checked if this is just PQ related or instances also ? I checked the disease PQ and the nox hits for similar numbers ..
