Been playing since launch but only recently have I started to play PVP. So is this kind of damage normal. I basically got one shotted...full health to dead in a fraction of a second.

    Yeah, try to roll dodge out of the red if possible, even if you are at a siege weapon.

    I've learned that the hard way.

    You were hit by siege weaponry... pretty normal. Don't stand in red.

    Was expecting to see another "wrecking blow" screenshot.

    Yeah Valen, how did you not know you got hit by a friggin siege weapon? Sheesh. L2P man. Lmao Too funny!

    Seriously though, that's not at all what he was asking. Is 35k damage normal, that was the question.

    No "L2P" intended, sorry if I came off that way.

    Just saying it is very normal to get wrecked by siege weaponry.

    I've been him many times for 24-25k. I can survive that with 33k health. Just thought it strange that it hit so hard that time.

    Cold harbor hits hard... damage you see is pretty standard. Vampires have it a little worse. Purge or heal through it. Nightblade can cloak to stop the ticks.

    I just thought it was funny, literally before he put up the thread I said 'they are just gonna tell you to stay outta the red'. So yeah, I had to laugh.

    Well to be fair if you notice that is a Cold Harbor Ballista (the ones that drop from anchors in Cyrodil). Those do more dmg then the ones bought from siege merchants.

    I don't recall seeing that huge a number from seige on myself tbh but...
    Are you a vamp? Did the player on the seige happen to be emp? I see an Atronach on there, another possibility is you were stunned in place by the Atro dropping and also took the tick from the fire ballista ( I recall someone telling me the tick is worse than the initial hit) and the recap only shows the last 5 things to hit you.

    No, not a vamp.

    DK, WW, Tank. Battle had just started. It was one of the firsts hit I took. I was also being healed by my counter part.

    Edit: spelling
