On a naked enemy. Who isn't blocking. Who does not dodge your frag, or cleanse your curse. And who does not have vigor/rally running on them that effectively reduce every soul assault tick by 3-4K.

@Sharee

Its more a rinse and repeat process, obviously or until the frag hits and creates a knockback, when you standing in mines. Thus blocking taking stam from curses depleting thier resources and when knocked back ult. K.O works really well for DKs and understanding when they flap thier wings usually up close.

Plus we all know about that dont we, its been around since 1.5 lol

Umm.. Have to see how this works, as I dont see any problems if someones is build arround ult regen with this skill, as he probably will hit like wet noodle so it will be more tank build that just stands there and tries to disturb you.

One question. Does this S&B ult also works when feared/fosilized/prisoned?

Yes, it work. You'll be stunned/feared/every CCed but still mitigate half the damage you take.

This ultimate pretty much nullifies every single magicka build in PVP. Magicka builds are almost completely projectile-based, and why do you think they nerfed DK wings so hard? Now, there is literally nothing a magicka build can do against someone using this ultimate. This Ultimate is extremely strong, and it only costs 100?

This actually pushes the meta more towards large zerg v zerg combat. It will literally be impossible to kill someone using this build in small scale or 1v1 PVP. You will need 10v1 to actually kill this guy. And you already have 60k HP unkillable templars running around. Now give them a spammable "I cannot be killed while this is active" ultimate.

Ridiculous.

... and this can cause problems. I know its ulti and shouldnt be easy countered by any normal skill, but I remember times when you could block while feared and that was just horrible. Now it looks like we will have simmilar situation, that some toons will be simply unkillable, hard to say how it will look like on live but with so many clever players its just a matter of time when we will see tanks that can hold whole pug zergs.

If it's OP why is it not being used in dueling? Leave it as is Tanks have been nerfed over and over again.

Working as intended. Thank you.

because the game isn't based around dueling.

You can virtually ignore these as they don't do any real damage, they just make it difficult to kill them.
