Ridiculous Arena fight

[danieln64x]

Im fighting for a named weapon in arena and have to do 3 matches back to back,first two go pretty easy not much damage, then last match 3 nomads and a champion swordmaster and champion bladedancer, i am wrecked by the champions,unable to land a single blow on with a 5% chance to hit,bare in mind i am using two hedge knights, an assasin my swordmaster and a companion ,my assasin has 160 initiative with armor and still goes last and has base 38mdf and with dodge and confident morale still opponent didnt miss once,using a net my swordmaster with 96 mat has a 18% chance to hit,how the hell are you supposed to fight them and why are they so overpowered it makes my veteran level brothers look like brigand thugs!

Details?

I think all the information you need is there. The guy was named "The Scimitar," and he was one of those named Champions who hit like a truck. He broke my body armor and then my body in 2 shots. But I had Indomitable on - that was what was shocking.

He had 60 HP right?

If you lost a lvl 31 bro that's on you for being careless.

Nope. 90 HPs; I run a true Ironman, so no front-liner has such low HPs, as survivability is first and foremost.

He had roughly the same build as my Lone Wolf here:

Maybe that Indom mode you had glitched out? Quite puzzling. Maybe the first hit procced an injury, and he had Executioner. Executioner and Duelist is stupid strong.

Either way, they're champions, and should be tough SoBs. Shame you had no surgeon.

That could possibly be what happened. It's just that I never expected to be two-shot with Indomitable on on a healthy guy with full armor. But a good lesson.

He was a disposable guy though - even though he was a level 31. Other than my Lone Wolf and the original free Squire, everyone else who is currently fighting are temporary characters until my reserve guys gain enough Events (Combat Drill, Brawler Teaches, Farmer Old Tricks) and become ready to rock. I do have a Surgeon, but the Hedge Knight already had a Brain Injury and Lost Eye. So he was due.

well his death was a crush and by some one name The Scimitar, it is pretty obvious that he faced an champion nomad excutinioner that hit his head two time in a roll with his two handed mace.

Yeah, seems plausible.
Champion Executioner has at least +35% damage. With a hypothetical famed 2h hammer with maxed damage roll + maxed armor ignore, damage can reach ridiculous values. Wouldn't even need to hit the head.

I assumed the Scimitar had you know, a shamshir. What weapon was he using @Lampros?

I don't remember; but since I was crushed, it probably was a blunt weapon?

[Trappist]

i might start hiring fodder bro to volunteer for the tough fights need to get them 10 resolves.

devs are tuning the game like they're forgetting it's a single player game

Underrail is at the deep end of the same problem

Might also have been duelist headshots with an armor pen + damage rolled famed 1h. I've built a duelist who once managed to 2 shot a famed 80 HP BF bro in one turn in a Hexen fight this way.
