Bro wtf is wrong with Silverfist dmg. Why does he do 1k dmg regardless of armor sometimes?

[RawMeatDiet]

Like I have 3.3k armor and normal silverfist still made me low hp. How? There's something messed up with how his dmg works.

My other character was 2.5k armor and could kinda tank most slams and be afk for a bit. With 3.3k armor he still made me low. He has some extreme range of dmg, like 800-1200 or something for this best swing. Too inconsistent.

Another guy said he got oneshot by cruel silverfist while having 6.5k armor.

Skill Issue. His big slam is a 1 shot. Gitgud!

I dont know how it is in POE2, but in POE1 armor was less effective against big hits. As in it would reduce a smaller % of the damage. I guess it is their way of trying to get people to actually try and avoid the big hits.

Yeah I will need to find a rough formula to understand how it works, because going from 2.5k to 3.3k armor should have made a huge difference and it didn't against him.

He's like the only boss like that, Blackjaw did low dmg to me:

I think Black Jaw normally has hits that are similar dmg to Silverfist strongest slams, but after improving my armor Silverfist does more dmg than BlackJaw.

Both Silverfist and BlackJaw have over tuned "one-shot" gear check mechanics. However, with Silverfist you can dodge-roll through his slam AOE, but BlackJaw's actual damage extends well beyond the visible effect.

My issue with Silverfist isn't so much the encounter itself, but with the placement of the checkpoint since Silverfist can open his attack pattern with that one-shot slam. So you can't teleport out after death and running away with all the monsters re-spawned can put you in a bad loop if you are unlucky.

I think you can teleport out now, they made checkpoints possible to teleport with to another checkpoint on map.

Nope.

Silverfist gets you before your teleport can materialize.
