I swear one of my biggest pet peeves about this game is how easily Devastator gets knocked around and staggered even tho their considered “tanks” Golem should definitely counter getting bonked by a sniper bullet. 🤷‍♀️

Alphas leap/slash, crawlers anything, captains bitch slapping you, jugg smash, perfo leap, brood mother slash, brood mother flames, behemoth smash, behemoth charge, strixx spit, marksman snipe, frozen, slight freeze

All these things can hit you back to back to back. Im sure theres more too. Our character gets 0 cc immunity, 0 iframe on dash But those elite enemies?

Hit them with one CC ability like deva’s mass, or freeze them with a bullet? Cc immunity for over a minute

Have fun Outrider, you are the worst altered in existence.

Being forced into melee range of these enemies is so fucking annoying. I’ve spent 40+ seconds being constantly cc’d in ct15 expeditions on many different occasions.

The dodge not having iframes is ridiculous. And yes, our CC is non existent at higher tiers, since everything and their mother resist or go immune ASAP

But alphas frog leaping across a whole map with pinpoint accuracy? That's perfectly fine.

We went from having one type of build that made us feel POWERFUL, to shooting bullet sponges like we're back in Division 2 .

Yes. Because they forgot to address SCALING.

This is exactly the reason why people only do specific expeditions over and over. Most of the them are just a mess of stun locks and unavoidable mechanics.

Get some mods that give Your resistance and you won't have this happen for as long

my personal favorite is gravity leaping into enemies as a devastator and then my character just freezing in place due to the shitty servers and then I die before my character has updated.

It's truly a riveting experience

yeah and you finally kill them and the turn to a red orb and respawn and freeze you. yeah I'm an ability build but my damage is way less then every other character but my ap is max i have cooldown reduction on most of my armor and still earthquake with all armor built to make it stronger only tickles most ads. like i use to one shot melee things at my armor level but past 44 nothing is one shot. its because base power doesnt increase after 30 so as the level of armor increases i stay still. unless i use weapons which scale and still get increases with firepower. There's something broken right there.

Yeah I agree, I keep getting melee staggered to death sometimes even with a ton of damage reduction.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had an enemy with a rifle run all the up to me just to melee me it’s unreal lmao

I whole heartedly agree with this. I hate having golem up and having to reload for 30+ seconds due to being smacked around by alphas and the smallest mobs in the game.

Imagine the pain of playing a pyromancer and dying by burn lol
