Question AoE's ??? =(

So, I am not sure if anyone else is having this problem, but AoE's aren't working like I remember. Others that I play with (friends and family) are also saying the same thing. I might just be missing something. It seems to be working more on Wizards. Of course, that is prob because that Wizzys use more AoEs. Anyway, I had 2 friends try to see what they though. A 42 mage was using its AoE on an orc pawn in EC. It was the highest AoE he had just so people aren't like .. errr did you use the low level one. Anyway, the orc pawn resisted all 3 waves. It took 4 different tries to piss him off enough to use his DD. Every wave of the AoE was resisted. (We did this process with 4 different critters. They were all level 5 and below.) My other friend has a level 20 Wizard. He was always grouping and only DD'd. I got him to do the same thing and came out with the same conclusion.

Have I missed something. Did the resists of all the mobs get boosted? Did I miss something?

Any information is greatly appreciated.[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Default Report it

If what you say is true, you should probably collect detailed information and submit a bug report. What your saying sounds like it is a bug.

Are you talking specifically about rain? PBAoEs and targeted AoEs worked fine on my wiz. Rains on this server seem to get resisted excessively. I know on live it was fairly common for even level mobs to resist a wave but here the code seems to really favor resists with rain.

I agree, I used my target AE rain quite a few times, usually on LB and DB and it never landed all 3. Used it on a couple greens before and same deal.

Yeah, I never use my AoE Rains on my Mage... they very, very rarely hit with even one wave... even on mobs far below my level.
And my mage isn't all that high-level either, so the mobs I tested it on were virtually newbie zone material. Same deal.

Well, it seems some others are having a similar problem. We have also found that different Necro DoT's and Mage DD's are hitting but not dealing damage to the target. Ill upload some pictures later when I have time and prob go ahead and submit a bug report. Just wanted to get more insight from others. It may all be becuase AoE's are easily resisted . .but I dont think an Orc Pawn should resist a lvl 40+ AoE.
