One shots and Stuns

[WhoKnows]

I dont get the point of being 86 level and getting one shotted from some ranged mobs like snake packs or bug packs in seconds where ı cant even fight back. They break the stance of my character really easy too. ı came somehow to the Tier 15 maps but its zero fun right now although my character has enough damage and ı spent too many points in defensive skills right now mostly Energy shield and ı could be wrong but the other defensive aspects like evasion rating seems like 3 times better but ı dont have right now money for gear change or passive skill tree.

I think balance is needed for some mobs and general monster attacks because they feel stronger than the character that ı put 140 hours in it. The bosses can be hard they can be souls like if they would great drop rates which they dont either but yeah the bosses are right now 10 times easy for me than mapping and killing monsters somehow or doing map events. ı would like the other way better excually.

What is your thoughts about this guys?

Its a game of multipliers, and that includes your defenses. That means that enemy damage has to scale much faster, which results in you going from la-de-da to dead with little in between. Its not really something they can fix fundamentally. Defenses vary greatly by build in type and power. Things one-hitting you are barely tickling some one else.

Nothing even comes close to one shotting me, even the +4 difficulty bosses, my resistances aren't even capped, just high 50-60's. I swapped it out for rarity because I don't need it. You have an invincible dodge roll and a million different ways to build defensively.
I have 12k energy shield with grim feast. If I die it's because I was not paying attention

I'm fine now up to lvl 15, as long as I don't go to crazy with debuffs like 400crit chance or elemental weakness.

4k shield with meditate

running my first six link, shocking my enemy and warping in to cull and shock even more while herald of thunder bring down more lightning which causes most enemies, worst case when I drop my two bells, to die very fast.

breach is finally fun and I'm able to survive those map encounter.

still need to get the 4th ascension, then maybe I continue until lvl 90, 4 more skillpoints and I'm done for a while.

24/7 only gaming this is little too crazy

PS: got 2 defensive buffs running, ghost dance which recharges my shield on hit 5% ov ev.

evasion is ~17.2k 86% evade chance... then I got dodge and movement boots.

rd buff wind dancer, which brings the evasion so high up

and I got a bow with cull, if I ever get chased by a suicide rare.
my own build is else only for close combat.

It got things to do with stun threshold, if they deal damage too fast, you will get stunned which happened a lot for squishy character. The problem in end game is due to scaling some enemy has close to no range animation, they just shoot you instantly and that make it very hard to dodge. So if you get stun here, another will come, follow by another, follow by another which pretty much caused you get stunlock from full health to death. They should add some charging animation to those enemies. At least like 0.5s animation. At the moment the end game is nothing but i kill you first before you kill me

Sometimes the game doesn't render in a one shot, annoying af... 4070.

GGG, please, give a chance to recover XP after die in endgame.
A game as Dark Souls give a chance to recover XP, why not POE2 ?
After many years, I still play to Dark Souls, not sure with POE2...

Let me guess. You went Chaos Inoculation and have invested a grand total of 0 points in Stun Threshold / % of maximum Energy Shield as Stun Threshold.

From the wiki:

Hits can inflict Stun buildup based on the damage inflicted compared to the target's maximum Life. Stun buildup stacks additively until it exceeds the target's Stun Threshold, at which point it inflicts a Stun for a short time.

Read the thread before posting. This has nothing to do with armor.

Edit: oh ffs, I didn't notice this is a necro thread...

your are right endgame is disgusting specialy since it is bad design(tower levels where you don't see enemies, body blocks, etc... a long list ) pentaly is to heavy for the state the game is in.

right, so you have to fight ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥?

nah.

they need to stop all the mobs seeing you at the same time, and firing with the same animation at the same time.

put a random delay on each mob seeing you, activating, and firing, and that might give you a chance to dodge. otherwise it's just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lazy coding.

[riverslq]

and even worse, prefiring is the same as being able to down a boss in 2 seconds before it's crappy op skills kick-in, such as the trialmaster time wasting 1 shot hourglass kill.

again, lazy coding.

[Deadly]

No More one hit kills

I'll sum up the situation when you die, you lose almost everything: map, waystone, XP, you can't buy high-level maps, you condemn certain maps, you can't buy Omen and you can't get back your lost XP. Not to mention the unpredictable 1-shot kills. I'm not completely discouraged yet, but this is the closest I've ever come. Is this a game for masochists?

I find that in a map i won't ever need to use my health flask as my ES rarely drops , then I will suddenly see my ES vanish and my health will drop from 100 to 0 in less than 1 second.

There doesn't seem to be an in between where a health flask would be useful. It's either not used or you die so fast you don't get a chance to use one.
