Ward = Endgame Defence.

[U W U]

Really struggling to see any players or 'Build Guides' that feature a character that is Tanky, without just scaling ward through the roof.
And I Certainly haven't seen any extreme use of Dodge\Evasion.

(I'm also referring to 200-300+ Corruption gameplay.)

You have Paladin Healing that is unbalanced, Warlock Ward generation that is bugged. The same combination of 'Missing health gained as Ward' in every Endgame character.

The only reliable defence other than ward is low life lich, but if we are going to push fast forward to 600+ corruption, ward still wins.
Ward scalings are messed up, meanwhile armor stats are relatively useless.

Due to how incoming damage is handled the only reason ward is superior is the reliance on one-shots. Health has a cap, ward does not, simple as that. Schrodingers health bar is a common occurrence.

Pre Rune Master people got up to 6K corruption, even with the changes via 1.0 the addition of the new classes I expect similar crazy high corruption.
