Magma Shell Ultimate Problem

Magma Shell doesn't limit incoming damage to %3 hp also I can die while ultimate is active.

I'm a returning ESO player used to play this game years ago but stopped playing it because of this issue. Hoping after years the issue would be solved but still my character has this problem. Send over many customer tickets but no one actually replied other than auto response. My character is focused on Tank-Dragonknight and without magma shell ultimate working I can't really tank in Boss fights.

    What do you think your video shows?

    Magma shell limits damage to 3% of max health, not your current health. So if you have 30k health then it limits damage to 900 per attack. If you have 4 enemies hitting you then you are taking 3600 damage per second.

    Greetings,

    After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    Shouldn't it make me take no more damage than %3 of my health in that duration in total?

    No, it reduces each attack to 3% of your max health, not your current health. Also it is per attack, not all damage sustained in that second.

    And certain damage is not reduced at all, like the Volatile Residue from the plants on Reef Guardian in DSR. It will still do 2k, 4k, etc. even with Magma up. That is part of the nature of the mechanic.
