Ice Archons ignoring barriers 05/20/2014 01:12 PM CDT
Ice Archons seem to be ignoring barriers AND giving wounds from 100% vitality with their curb stomp, i think this needs to be adjusted. Thief physical barrier gives a message when it goes off, it is being ignored 100% by the archon stomp.
I went from full health with a barrier up, to hurt and bleeding in a single hit. Archons never land anything over a good hit on me, which is reduced even further if i have my barrier up.



You suddenly sense that your defenses have been beaten, and move to minimize the damage.
* Timing it well, an ice archon feints to the side at you. You barely fail to block with small shield.
The sword lands a grazing (0/23) blow to your left leg.
[You're winded, adeptly balanced and in strong position.]


* Moving in like a timid schoolboy, an ice archon feints high at you. You evade, jumping to one side.
[You're winded, incredibly balanced and have slight advantage.]

It's based off defenses. I get hit by it occasionally as well. It was down-tweaked to not do so much damage, but it seems like somewhere along the way, that tweak was undone.

Ice Archon special attack is still too powerful and ignoring barriers, can we please get this fixed?

Archons are still broken, this war stomp gave me a bleeder past barriers without dropping me below 90% vitality. Can we please get this fixed?

HI, WHEN IS THIS GOING TO BE FIXED?

Archons should now respect barriers.

I haven't been able to notice a difference, I'm waiting 2-4 minutes before I see any of them appear in my room. It doesn't seem like the logic for them finding players is happening like they are in Young or Juvenile Wyverns.
