pbaoe range needs to be looked at
I think you should revamp pbaoe radius dmg a bit, if someone is directly on top of me I pbaoe for like 700, if they are 1 step back meleeing me, I pbaoe for like 300, if they are like 2 steps back still meleeing me, I pbaoe for like 100 dmg, while they still in melee range meleeing me
literaly don't do any damage unless someone is literaly standing on your toes
should extend the range by like 100 units so you can actualy dmg people meleeing u that arent literaly standing on you, its alrdy hard enough to be a pbaoe char, but when someone can be meleeing u, and far enough away that pbaoeo nly hits for lik 100-150 dmg a hit is kinda lame
cheers

Some random mids and hibs
and its very hard to get right on top of people, cuz they can just back up 2 steps still melee u and ur pbaoes do like 150 dmg
well ya the high resists sux to, but I do fine dmg if someone is on top of me, actualy I do great dmg, but if they are backed up 1 step, its like cut in half, and if 2 steps (which is still in melee range hitting me) the dmg is like -75'%'d
you shouldn't be on the 3rd or 4th dmg level via range, while someone is still meleeing you, it needs to be very slightly increased so people hitting u in melee, aren't down 3tiers of dmg from pbaoe beign to far away, which literaly does like 150 dmg pbaoe if they are at max melee range still wrecking the **** out of u
Yea one of the Alb classes goes thru keep walls. Not sure if any Hib or Mid classes can do this.
maybe other classes do tho I dunno, I dun think I ever get pbaoe'd thro a wall, just peoples pets come in and that sux ;\
This was fixed years ago. PBAOE through walls and bridges (unless select locations exist that are bugged and don't apply) no longer hit within-range targets if there is no LOS.
Only thing currently that can go through walls and doors are pets.

positioning is everything as a pbaoe.
15 years ago, pbaoe was murder, now due all the things you mention ... it's nowhere near as effective indeed.
