I wonder if anyone else might be having this problem.
Because I love the concept, I cranked up a Greatweapon Fighter… no, that’s not the problem.
I am finding that some mobs are able to one-shot me during a particular attack animation.
During a foundry mission I was facing a boss guard who, judging by his skills, was based on the Nasher Enforcer. One of my attacks as a GWF involves me jumping up into the air and coming down doing damage in an area around me. I am usually in combat when that skill rolls around a second time so I normally have the camera above the fight pointed almost straight down this keeping me from leaping off into oblivion.
However, in this fight I launched myself into the air and was insta-killed by the guard. Feet up, ready to come down with some damage and then I am hurtling sideways as if struck by a sidewinder and dead as vendor trash door nail.
I returned and beat the guard soundly for his impudence but skipped using that jump attack.
In a separate foundry title, entirely unrelated to the former, I faced a group of spiders including two bosses. Once more the jump attack comes available and I leap into the air only to be smacked straight across the Styx by what looked like an ordinary attack from on of the boss spiders. None of the encounters had been problematic up until then so I had nearly full health until getting spider slapped.
So I rezzed and fixed my wound and headed back out intent on testing a theory. It sounded a lot less ominous in my mind at the time. Coming back to the spider encounter I just ran in amongst them saving that attack. Then when they were all gathered, a full quarter of a second later, I launched my leap attack. And WHAP! Dead again and tumbling bonelessly across the snowy remains of my dignity.
Goes from full health to zero instantly
Nothing special about the attack from the mob
During a leaping attack animation
Happens in different foundry missions
Thus I conclude that something is killing me in mid-air, in one shot, and I wonder if anyone has any other information on this before I put in something bug-wise?
And don’t tell me the GWF is OP at dying…
I already know that.
