Powerlash wielding Emp is broken

I feel like this scenario shouldn't be possible.

Land molten whip with riposte for 27k? Fair.
Land an ulti as emp for 27k? Fair.
A regular skill AOE capable of 5 consecutive 26k hits? Broken.

Perhaps 1 of these suggestions could help

1. Powerlash is becomes a single target ability
2. Corro ignores armor for DoT damage instead of direct damage

And my build is far from squishy.

If everyone else is ok with this, I'll shut up. Just seems really busted.

    I feel like corrosive armor should only last 6 seconds would be my suggestion.

    Just today, I got hit for a 20k power lash then later a coldharbour trebuchet siege hit me for 10k with my same setup. One skill hitting for double that siege is way too broken.

    Corrosive should not give attack and defense in the same ult, and certainly not be as long as it is for what it does. Reminder that shield ult and resto ult are only defensive and last less time. Reninder that Magma Shell sees almost 0% use because corrosive is that much more better.

    Though you can make the cost argument, it isn't a very strong one because, again, no one would be mindlessly spamming an ult in the first place unless it was as powerful as corrosive where it gives attack and defense and is best to have up as much as possible in all cases .

    Corrosive needed addressing a long time ago. But hey, don't let the people that only play DK see this comment. They'll start posting bait just like the WW players once you start commenting on their broken mechanics. It'd be a shame if tank DKs wearing esoteric with max speed had to actually build offense to do damage or defense like everyone else instead of relying on an ult and overinflated overbuffed damage on skills, wouldn't it?

    No. That sounds too much like balance.
