It really is quite hilarious to see a DK complain about being killed by three people, shows how overpowered they really are.

It's effing heartwarming

The thing i think alot of you are missing is, he is a tank. He isnt trying to dps them and tank them at the same time. He isnt trying to 1vX like it was possible in 1.5. 44k health + hard cap armour/spell res means you spec very very little into anything else. If he cant tank 3 people at the same time, then whats the point of speccing into being a tank? 3 people is nothing when you look at zerg numbers. Tanks should be able to comfortably tank 3-5 people.

With my current set up, i am able to decrease the amount of damage (single target) done to me by 78%. That means, if 3 sorcs hit me with 3 crystal frags full buffed, it would hardly do the damage of a radiant destruction. If 3 snipers, sniped me at the same time, it wouldnt do the damage. etc.

Correct me if i am wrong (coz i havent tested, just read this) but radiant destruction isnt blockable and imo, thats where i believe lies the biggest issue with this skill. secondary to that is when it starts scaling (i would suggest 35-40%).

Today i equipped my templar with 30k life, 30k amor and 35k spellresist. a few def-skills and 1 heal and radiant destruction. stand in every crowd of enemies like a unbeatable rock and everytime a player dropped to about 30% life, i used radiant destruction. i was very funny and the daily quest was finished in about 3 minutes.

If that's true, that might be why he died so easily. If it's unblockable, then I am entirely sure that is a glitch that needs immediate addressing.

Can't be blocked or dodged, add nirnhoned bug that ignores ~100% spell resist and any heavy armor /damage mitigation build is quite useless at the moment. Light armor is actually the best defense as you can spam the harness shield.

Fix these simple things and we dont need to nerf the skill.

How is it you can block a Curse or a poison DoT, but you can't block a laser beam?

Me against two templars - all I could do was to spam dragon's blood but to little avail.
