k idk if this is the right place to post this but yeah..
anyways.. i was doing a frost run w/ my psy..
the barb pulls the mobs.. i aoe and stole agro (as always) and the mobs (Iceshadow Assassins, the little white ones) started hitting me for 1.5k dmg per hit and they were hitting me at a range too..
im wondering if its a bug or what? and if it happened to some1 else?
btw theres like only 2 or 3 groups of mobs that were bugged, not all iceshadow assassins hit me that much.

    Well, I've never seen them do that much damage at all when I went to FC with some squad with fail barbs and bms. o.o'

    Like, if barb didn't have aggro or bm didn't stun in time, and I AoE'ed them to save the cleric, I ended up with aggro but each one did 200 per hit/mob which is always too slow for BB to heal and enough to kill me if BB wasn't up and I had all those mobs on me.

    I'm not sure how did it do 1.5k damage on you since I'm assuming you're using arcane gear and I use arcane as well. b:surrender

    The greatest danger for most of us
    is not that our aim is too high
    and we miss it
    but that it's too low and
    we reach it.

    More importantly, did OP have black voodoo on?

    Shouldn't the damage be lower with black voodoo on?

    Yes, so if OP didn't have it on, that might be the reason why?

    Dunno if you have any defence lowering psy skill? I once accidentally hit physical marrow and nearly got shredded by magical mobs. However, without bb the most I've been normally hit for is the occasional 1k, and my m-def is fairly low even for a BM.

    No, I got my voodoos wrong o.o. Black voodoo reduces defense level, therefore increasing the damage taken, whereas white voodoo increases defense level while decreasing atk level, thus reducing damage taken.

    Kay.

    so still, Eoria has a valid question, either way. b:chuckle

    If OP had Black voodoo on, then maybe that's why OP was getting slaughtered cuz of the reduced defense level.

    Note, mobs in big room have a de-buff that increases damage taken. That could be it. :)

    I think that debuff is what he meant when he was "dragoned"

    And I've had the same thing happen to me at times, it might just be a random fluke. Things like that happen.

    i know that.. but the mobs that were hitting me for 1k+ were those assassins.. the mobs outside the slash+bishop boss..

    what i was saying was how could those mobs (assassins) hit me for 1k when the mobs in big room with debuffs is hitting me for only 500-600.

    I have seen this before. Guys, the OP is not lying, there are a couple of assassin mobs in the hallways before slash boss, that can randomly do 1k hits. I am not sure if this is intentional or glitched... I would think glitch, but you can never be sure, I suppose. Point being, I have pulled that hallways a million times on assassin or barb, and ocassionally, I see in my dmg log:

    assassin does 157 dmg
    assassin does 143 dmg
    (etc etc....)
    ...
    assassin does 1043 dmg
    assassin does 947 dmg
    assassin does 138 dmg
    assassin does 157 dmg


    Or something to that effect. So don't say it cannot happen, it can & does.

    Maybe you shouldn't attack right away.

    1. Barb uses BR -> Roar -> Sunder -> Run into BB
    2. Sin uses Subsea Strike
    3. BM uses HF
    4. THEN u attack.

    You probably just get hit fast enough that it registers 5 hits as 1.

    I dont really get to see the damage log at times so cant -really- talk out of much expierence BUT
    i do see a different in the assassin mob in FC, albeit a minor but maybe a vital one ?

    Majority of the assassins are green/blue-ish glowing, but there are also a few purple ones.
    perhaps they have lower def, die quicker and are hardly noticed, but have higher att. and this when attack hit high ?

    -could- be an explaination other than it being a glitch or a bug?

    There are two kinds of "shadows" in that pull. There's Iceshadow and Snowshadow. I don't remember which one does the 1k's, but either way, it's been like this forever, and can kill me with or without voodoo.

    My wiz has considerably more pdef and it still hurt as well.

    Pretty sure no mob in frost has any special attribute, I could be wrong though. b:surrender

    Their name gives a clue: Assassins....

    They have some sort of crit/zerk attack, coupled with a small reddish poof animation that is usually lost in the aoe animation mess in a pull, it is physical damage and can easily hit over 1k on arcanes (much more with black voodoo).
    All the world's a game,
    And all the men and women merely gamers:
    They have their wipes and their rezzes;
    And one man in his time plays many alts.
