Planet 9-10 too hard?

    Hello guys,
    I recently came to the latest planets, got my full impervium armor and a really good weapon. still, many NPS (not monsters really) 1 hit me easily.
    This is quite annoying, as farming casteles etc. on those planet is kinda impossible? The crossbows almost 1 hit me, most melees do aswell.

    Any suggestions or am I doing something wrong?

    Greetz, Sid

    The issue in general is that most stuff above Tier 5 is horribly unbalanced is going to change. There's not a whole lot you can do, except take advantage of your one power over enemies which is creating blocks as makeshift barrier and then plinking away with a ranged weapon.

    Try using 1 handed weapon with shield and time your blocks right.I started dying much less with shield then when i was using 2-handed weapon.

    Actually the issue is that Sector X is supposed to be hard as it is the PvP tier/sector, that's why the mobs are still difficult to take hits from/kill.

    Hard sectors are hard makes sense

    Don't think so. USCM prisoners can one-shot me(fully T10 geared) with folded chairs. It's clearly unbalanced.

    I think you shouldn't step into the ring when they're starting to melee with folding chairs.

    This doesn't have the rules of the WWF.

    Threat level 10 planets aren't meant to be easy to just dash through - I haven't had any 1-shot experiences except with minibosses, so I'm not sure how you're so soft to them unless they have some nasty abilities.

    Recommend that you go to other threat level 10 planets with hopefully, weaker enemies.

    OP said he had full impervium armors, which are the best armors in game. Duh.

    OP said NPCs one shot him. Not monsters. People should learn how to read.

    Doesn't mean that the enemies which he fights have the same damage capability.
    - NPCs - can he specify which enemies kill him in one shot?

    Also, just to check - you do have them in the actual equip slots, and not the vanity, right?

    Holy **** thats fast replies, sry guys for the "late" answer =)

    First of all: I know that the hard planets are meant to be hard ;) But 1-hitting is pure nonsense.
    As stated before I got full impervium armor and as weapon I use a hammer with roughly 2.3k dps/dmg (about 1 swing/sec). The dmg I inficlt is fine. takes 1-5 hits (besides minibosses) to kill enemies.

    To the question which ones 1-hitted me... Hard to say as I only made those expecriences with 2 kinds of enemies. first was the prisoners with chairs, 2nd knights and knights with crossbows almost 1-hit me.

    The thing with the shield sounds quite good, never payed attention to them and forgot about them :D Will try that

    PS: Further more my bandages only heal about 1 bar Oo Takes hours to heal and stimpacks are way rare to just use them all the time. But I read a thread about that already, will be fixxed some day I guess =)

    cheers!

    PSS:
    hehe, yes :p

    Armed guards at instances/dungeons (including prisoners with chairs) can generally hit MUCH harder than the random monsters walking and flying around a planet... everyone knows and understands this by now, right?

    PS - Sid - you need to find / make some food that heals you by tier 10; the stims and nanobandages really don't cut it any more.

    And again, yes I know that... still 1-hitting is over the top if you ask me.

    Lvl 10 planets are clearly not balanced, if you have had any drops there you will know that your crafted gear owns them by one tier. I don't get one shotted, but I don't really see the point in going there. All they have to offer is one tier too low rares and epics, everything else i can get elsewhere.

    I never get close to being one-shotted on tier 10 planets, as long as I'm wearing my armor and not trying to run past enemies.

    Try cake, no seriously, try cake. Blackcurrant thinghy, banana cream pie, neon melon thinghy, apple pie etc. Cake heals, add burn (ouch, it will kill you at one bar health) and speed boosts. The regen is nice and fast, and the speed boost is really handy so try cake.

    I have no idea, why people do not get one hitted, but if you want a proof Ill record a video with impervium armor and me getting 1-hit by a prisoner....
