So here is something about which I'm curious, hoping someone has an answer:
I am under the impression that troll kings are immune to instant death, hence the "The troll king continues to struggle for life!" messaging.
However, I noticed that troll kings die when hit by UAC death crits. And always. So I'm wondering, why the difference?
I'm guessing it's a difference in UAC versus the older TK mechanics, but anyone know? It's bugging me. Although I'm not complaining about killing a TK in one hit while the rest of the world needs to mush them up into jelly.
Here's an example:
A massive troll king arrives, flexing its massive claws.
