Overload . . . bugged?

Just got hit with the Sorceror's 'Overload light attack' twice in very short succession for 18,215 EACH.

Isn't this just ever so slightly over powered?

    Only possible with crits and boosting via mage guild and major prophesy plus a ridiculous amount of spell power.

    My Overload hits for 7K and crits for something over 10K

    When someone sends their overload light attacks flying at you just dodge roll, block, or reflect.

    What is/was your mitigation at the time?

    So far the hardest a sorc has hit me has been for 15k, but I can't cry since I had no shield up and wasn't blocking and hadn't dodge rolled. Usually overload will hit me for maybe 7k or lower, and I'm sub-VR14 in green gear, so yeah I don't think overload is "OP" in any way.

    Not sure if you run a bow or 2 hand but the person that ganked (?) you is probably very squishy should you land one of those on him.

    Also, I dont think you can rule out a blind luck, planet aligning kind of moment could've happened for him. :-P
    Disabling the grass may improve performance.
