What was the highest single-hit/spell damage from non-boss mob you have ever experienced? In my case it was bladed aatxe with 444 slashing damage.

I remember that hydras in the crystal desert in HM hit around 400-500 too with their fireballs and meteors.

You'd think that'd stop people from running face first into them... alas.

Pssh. Base Defenders got nothing on an Aatxe.

Granted I was trying to make this hurt like hell, but still.

The wurm thing in The Deep is a constant 600+ on casters,most eotn bosses hit very hard because of their double damage..not sure on the highest-it isnt Aatxe,though.

Myes, I know of the Ele boss in Tihark Orchard or something, the SS farm part, that it can hit around 4k too with 600 armor, since its so low AL. It might top that aatxe hit, although it would be by a hairwidth.

The biggest hit known in PvP is around 1700 I believe, an earth spell against a warrior using frenzy without armor.

Pix or it didn't happen.

It is impossible for lag to do damage.

Speaking of high numbers, the highest healing in a single skill is definitely Feast of Souls. Can heal thousands on every party member with enough spirits.

This guy popped into my head at first, so I wanted to test his rift, but he's a noob and never used it on me, so his strike wins.

Boss = cheating

(okay, maybe I'm just jealous )

EDIT: I did think of a way to take more damage though - Healing Signet's -40 armor won't allow you to take advantage of a 15% -10 while attacking mod. Crude Swing, on the other hand...

Couldn't find the screenshot of it, but had a 4000 Rodgorts on Frenzy + Healsig +back when armor of frost (I believe it was frost) had -armor against fire.

That Molotov Rocktail guy hits pretty hard. I know in HM, if I just waltz up to him with my H/H party, they all pretty much instantly die (Heroes with 500-600 health)...

Bah, we used to run around down there daily with a prot wearing a pumpkin on his head, won about 90-95% of the time.

(Of course, he was perma-protted by the smiter whenever someone was about to start doing damage to him.)

Orosen came to mind for me too. You may have to damage him a little for him to use his item - Tranquil was Tanasen, I think.

I wonder what the numbers would be on a naked W/E with that skill bar + Elemental Resistance*....hmmmm......What other armor reducing skills are out there???

*This blonde moment has been brought to you by, Like, those guys...what are they called? They drive these things, and do stuff....Ohhh Look! smilies

Elemental Resistance would cancel out the Frenzy, giving you way less damage. Also, just for the record that'd be a W/Me bar

Off the top of my head, skills that will increase the damage you take are Frenzy, Frenzied Defense, Primal Rage, Healing Signet, Crude Swing, Barbed Arrows. Things that could potentially increase the damage you take would be Physical Resistance, Elemental Resistance, and a -10 armor while attacking weapon mod. Calculated Risk could as well, but it'd only add a very little bit since that's armor-ignoring anyway.

Surely I'm missing some, so feel free to list some more.

Oh, and I'm still claiming victory for now:

I'd be interested to see how much some of those siege worms could hit for in the EotN dungeons.

Cyndr the mountain heart, that worm at the end of heart of the shiverpeaks story quest can be very unforgiving, especially since it doesnt look like a boss, but did he rape my party often enough.

It is not a monster but it hits really hard:

In terms of auto-attack i think Bladed Aatxe is by far the winner, now if you count skills i guess it's among ele/rt bosses in hm

Elemental Resistance would give far less damage than Frenzy. That was already discussed.
