In the north-eastern market
  You stand within the bustling markets of Palanthas. The sounds of people
talking and conducting business can be heard from all around. To the north
you can hear the ringing of metal on metal as the city blacksmith works
away, and similar sounds are coming from the east where the armorer works.

hahah, that f*cking sucks

The thing that gets me is I had my main protections up. Even if wraith form and maggots did nothing for me, ghoul flesh should have still affected the strike.

Help file describes ghoul flesh as "necro sanc". Even if it protected against 1/3 of the damage it would scale the ambush to the 1200-1500hp range. If ghouls flesh is a true sanc then we're talking 1800+ in one strike.

I mean, damn!

You forgot about a range that does UNSPEAKABLE damage...and weapon multiplier...
For you, it's a very unlucky!!!

Wait, you can do unspeakable damage in this game AND there are flaring weapons?

You're blowing my mind...

- Kerpow!!...  :o that sh*t was crazy.  Either you just got maxed out on ball-rocking damage...or flare/ambush(assault) ignores resists to some degree?

What resists? Retribution strikes with divine power. He barely had any resistance to holy.
If I remember correctly, wraithform wouldn't do anything for you. It gives specific resistances, and apperently not to holy. And not sure how ghoul flesh is working with veil of maggots, but in the past Sanc and Veil didn't accumulate.

This is not a new happening. There are other logs of one-hit KOs by ambushes/backstabs with flares/outrages. I'm just too lazy to point them out.

Well I know he hit tzaki with a 1300+ damage ambush before.

Omledufrommage I think you misunderstood me.
