Zakum. Forever a punching bag, even with his difficulty "adjusted."
Wow, looks like Dark Sight+Assassinate will be the undisputed combo of choice for 1v1...

Horntail and Zakum didn't have their HP boosted. Only their Chaos versions did.
Still... that Dual Blade doing ~20 million damage per hit, soloing Chaos Zakum in that time frame is ridiculous.

To add on this.
It was actually lowered quite a bit.

Didn't realize the 999k damage cap was that hindering...
Still waiting to see how bad the damage gets when our skills actually get updated and whatnot.

Thought it was a funny ending to the Chaos Zak video.

To be fair, that DB was doing 800k Venom hits. That's pretty insane, unless %boss affects Venom.
But these videos are proof that it wasn't Angelic Buster's skills that were overpowered (minus Soul Seeker), it was the fact that she broke the old damage cap. Sure, only incredibly funded people are going to be able to do this kind of damage, but now it's available to all classes and not just AB.

And yet she STILL hits harder than everyone, even with this change lol.

In case you forget, AB's still has high % skills on her skills, so she may not be as strong, but she still has a higher chance of breaking the 50m cap than any of us. Plus, she still has her 99m skills.

But now she faces the same issues as Evans do, though she'll have an easier time reaching that cap, she's going to be hard pressed to compete with other seriously funded classes due to the sheer amount of hits they have over her.

Not like it really matters that much. If you're hitting the 50 mill cap on ANY character, you're soloing every boss in the game regardless. Who would seriously care that they can't kill the boss 10 seconds faster than before? LOL

The "damage whores"
To me it just shows that no class is safe from the "OP upon release/nerf down the road" syndrome. Unfunded Bursters weren't spectacular after the nerfs hit, and this just causes them to fall further in the hole. Although I don't know why I'm sort of "defending" them, I was one of the biggest whiners screaming for a nerf since that Bossing video hit youtube.

That CHT party video makes bossing look so much fun...
They actually took my idea and got rid of invincibility on hit! Summons are actually really annoying now! Probably boss rooms only though but still!

He's only 182 so he cant spam snipe.
By the way LRTS' cap is nerfed from 99mil to 50mil, which is quite unfair to marksman.

Along with an inventory full of legendary equipment. I'm tired of these videos, I want to see an actual fight with an actual party so that we can get a better idea of how this patch is going to affect bossing!
