Guild Wars 2

I have exotic gear with toughness on every piece + toughness upgrades stacked for a total of 1908 toughness, yet I got this:
“You were hit for 14121 damage damage by … using Kill Shot”.
Hopefully you have a patch up soon that fixes this, thanks!

Edit: Since that came from a warrior, who has extremely high base HP and good defense, I as elementalist was just looking at my skills and traits to figure out which would be the best combo to inflict about 25k in one shot on someone (since elementalist has like half the warrior HP and much less armor, I figured that would be the natural consequence), but I’m such a noob that I was unable to find it! Maybe you can help me search for it.

Assumed I had balanced gear to actually do damage instead of just tanking (wow that worked great, how I tanked that guy 2-shotting me!), would I have been 1-shotted for 20k damage or rather for 30k? It’s hard to gauge, but maybe someone can guess such numbers based on his great experience.

They need to stop this max crit junk, there should be a hard cap on damage no matter what. Base it on armor class or whatever. If I were ever to design a combat system, one thing I would never include is this mythical crit hit nonsense. You either hit or you miss. If yu want a critical hit, fine, make it a critical hit. you get one you die.

roflmao, I just gathered additional intelligence, that I at first considered just a jest, but no! Lo and behold, someone claimed that +Healing Power actually reduces crit damage you take. Now, the funny part is, you know what kind of equipment I was wearing (armour) and wielding (weaponry) that gave me +toughness? “Cleric” items :-p So they also gave me a kitten-megaton of +Healing.
..
Yeah.

Well I thought about it, and change of plans:
I guess I’ll go all berserker set, glass cannon style then. If I can get two-hitted anyway in exotic thoughness/healing gear, why not get one-hitted but have some fun first. ^^
