I saw screenshots of an Engy hitting for like 1.3M on Flamethrower auto-attack. That’s the weapon that really needs a nerf.
Edit: also, F skills SHOULD do more damage. You have to move your fingers further to press them so it requires more skill. This is why elite skills should one-shot everything, the 0 key is really far from your hand, it’s the highest skillfloor in the game.

JESUS CHRIST SCREW ARENANET AND THEIR BALANCE!!!! MAKE EVERY CLASS HIT FOR 500 EVERY TIME!!! THAT IS BALANCE!!!…
PS: I hate warrior, i hate playing warrior, but it’s damage abilities are far from OP. Eviscerate is easily dodgeable/blindable/negatable. It has been a very long time since I have been caught by one of them off guard.
I play thief and ele more than anything and neither of my F skills do 10k damage, but I’m not complaining because my ele f skills give me a ton more versatility, my thief steal is vital and is great on its own without Mug and doing damage.
This all comes down to a skill and experience issue. Eviscerate has been around doing that kind of damage for a long time but you get used to it and dodge it after awhile, I don’t even think about it. Fight some more warriors and soon you will learn they are very easy to fight cause they are so slow.
OP, with NPE they added some “learn to dodge” areas in the low-level zones. There are few outside the Citadel. Go check them out, maybe next time you won’t be a slowpoke who can’t dodge one of the slowest burst in the game and cry on the forums.
My question is, how much one hit damage is too much? Okay, a skill can be avoided, or nullified by various means, fine. So, does that mean you would be okay if a burst skill could hit for 20k? 30k? Where do you draw the line and why? What about the other end, a fully tanked toon sucks up an burst for 4k while sitting on massive health pool and strong regen. Right now it’s possible for the tankiest builds to suck up the zerkiest builds damage and be in almost no danger of getting downed with no active defense on their part.
When you design a combat system, one thing you have to consider is the extremes, and how combat should work at those extremes. If the extremes allow for combat that makes sense, then you can be optimistic about balancing the middle.
Personally I’d prefer combat where a duel between two tanks can result in one of the dying in a reasonable time frame. And a duel between two zerkers isn’t over the first time of of them lands a burst. I feel like the extremes are too far out, both for doing damage, and for tanking damage.
on an enemy?^ that’ s a veteran man XD Don’ t force me to add screens of my warrior with axe+ shield/ greatsword in pve XD The damage it deals is twice bigger than that rapid fire and you know warrior fanboy^^
This time on Warrior.
2 shots didn’t land becouse out of range.
I’m out of this troll cave!
Just because I like throwing gasoline on fires, I present to you, the highest eviscerate I’ve ever seen on a player. This was not me, it was a guildie of mine though. For the record, he also wasn’t running full zerker, he was running a combination of cav’s and valk’s for max ferocity and power, along with an intelligence sigil. This SS was also taken IIRC before the Crit damage – Ferocity nerf, so numbers like this aren’t quite possible anymore, but it’s possible to approach them with the correct circumstances.
@OP – L2dodge may sound like a huge cop out, but when someone relies on a single skill to do almost all of their damage, you just need to avoid that one skill and you have effectively disarmed them. Learn the telegraphing animation for eviscerate, and you will no longer find it to be that intimidating.
