Blasting Transcendent deals too much damage

Way too much damage. Area level 75 monster dealt 2.2k unlucky damage with his 2 balls and beam to a 76% max res, 3k armor apply to ele.

+1, these mobs dealt 1.5-2k damage per shot, thats way too high with capped res and decent armor

I swear there’s some fucked-up shit going on with the mobs. I’m sitting at 2100 HP and 4.4k mana (can overflow to 6600 mana with 88% damage taken from mana before life). I can literally face-tank the Citadel boss on the highest difficulty, yet I just got one-shot twice in a row by white mobs—dead from a single hit. White mobs should never be able to deal that much damage.

At first, I thought there might be some mechanic that bypasses my mana. But after those two back-to-back one-shots, I’m really starting to doubt that explanation. I’ve also noticed that it usually happens when I get hit by some kind of projectile.

On top of that, I’m maxed on all resistances (75% all elemental and chaos resist), and I’m always inside my Oasis: ~6x% damage recouped as life, ~5x% damage recouped as mana, and about 900 mana regen per second.

I hate these lightning balls. Most of the time I can’t even see them because of the absolute particle-system fuckfest.
I have 90% Physical Damage Reduction, 90% elemental damage reduction across the board, +30% overcapped Lightning Resistance, critical damage immunity, and immunity to all curses.
And yet these motherfuckers still one-shot me.
Even the NORMAL-rarity ones hit me for around 900 damage.
Nine. Hundred. To me.

I'm going to quit going into Vaal temples because of the blasting transcendent. I also have maxed res and insanely high armor and these monsters can just instakill me. There is no defense against it. I quit. I give up.

Im quitting the season now. They are the only thing that kills me in T15 maps/temples and I have no idea how to solve this

This mob is overtuned. A white version of this specific kind did 5k damage to my energy shield, with capped res. I remember it doing 1k-1.2k damage on my warrior earlier on the league.

The only damage mod on my temple was additional attack/cast speed.

Area was level 80.

Didn't see any other threads so wanted to add more info -


Level 81 temple

75% lightning res
15,616 armor applied to elemental damage
2.2k HP

Getting one-shot by the projectiles. I'm not sure if it's the direct hits that do it or the explosion from missed shots because they tend to overlap, but it's instant.

Gear isn't greatest just due to SSF rng, but they are definitely overtuned compared to everything else in the temple
