tri-focus hits for a little bit too much maybe in pvp area's?

While sky shard hunting on my tank in Cyro, I got completely destroyed in seconds when an enemy player came form behind and started to kill the delve boss I was trying to kill at that moment. I like playing oakensorcs too but this is kinda an unfair advantage, am I right? I am clearly not an npc, yet I get treated like one with these big numbers.

This is because tri focus ignores battle spirit if the main target of the heavy attack is a mob. That is to say, since the damage on the mob isn't reduced, the damage copied to nearby players is also not reduced.

I think that is intentional across the board for the passive because it is meant to prevent a double dipping in battle spirit when the passive procs off a player.

Sure but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be affected by battle spirit at all when attacking a mob. It's broken in the sense that it is a form of damage that completely bypasses battle spirit.
