Took me a few seconds why flamethrower and grenades were instantly killing me during the skeleton fight…. the mob groups have retaliation. Isn’t it bad enough that Engy AoE completely wreck us in pvp with aoe retal? Why carry that over to PvE?

To troll you. It’s Mad King realm. Suffer and look at amount of CC skills.

2-3 archer skeletons can lock you in knockback.

I know right? It’s so hard to have to pay attention and strip boons. Why can’t we all just spam skills without thought? /sarcasm

You’re kidding me right?

They’re regular mobs that spawn in packs of like 15, and die instantly to aoe.

There is nothing thoughtful or skillful about the zerg content in this game, don’t even try to pretend.

Yeah because engineers have so many methods to remove boons… oh wait they only have a single dumpster trait that no-one would ever use (with CDs of 20-50s).

It’s that Retaliation is broken with certain skills (flamethrower, grenades, pistol whip, cluster bomb, dagger storm, etc.) for no true reason; that is mostly ignored in PvP because most of those skills are just not used at all, but they are used in PvE.

As a low level elementalist trying to level up via this farm, I have to say that this retaliation gets me killed quite often and is very annoying.
