They are ridiculously overpowered. I was just one shot by a skirmisher, straight through shielding rune, time shield and all my hps.
In a patrol in the west. PLEASE can they be removed entirely from the game until they are fixed, not just as rares/bosses.

any details about it?
like distance, what was the ability called?
what was your and enemy's lvl?
could it have been a randboss with a ridiculous ammo?

I thought skirmisher was already removed from the pool of classes rares/uniques/bosses can pull from. Was it readded with Embers or something?

I think he just means that one of the patrol dudes randomly had a Skirmisher talent and sling. I could be wrong though.

Yes, just patrol member. Talent was bullshot.
I was a powerful paradox message, insane rl.
I take out patrols all the time, so this was unexpected

..bullshot 0.o
since mage was somehow turned it message, i assume its autocorrected killshot.
hmm...
at lvl5, it does 166% base...
at range 10 (Eldoral Last Resort could do that) it gains 250%, making it a total of just over 4x the shot base damage...
i was going to calculate possible damage when i realized 2 things. again you didnt say the lvl...
and its insane, so all calculation go out the window, as they pretty much have they own rules.
i mean, 30 turns disease?! that doesn't even scale!

Bullshot... Isn't that an archer talent?
If Bull shot is what killed you, you'll be pleased to know it was not a skirmisher talent.

As scary as Skirmishers were, Archers can be on par with them as we've just seen. Bull Shot has an obscenely high damage scalar on it.

OK, sounds like just plain bad luck then. Mind you, I still don't like skirmishers, lol
