I fought a Storm transcended, and he had 210 critical rating. I have 80 something block rating. And I never critical blocked him! I shielded yes, but he was smart to use Wild Bolt to shake it off. Still hitting 1700 damage! That's because he criticalled. Then, he kept on criticalling and I NEVER blocked. I asked him if anyone lately critical blocked him, and he said no. Is it impossible to critical block something over 210 critical rating? I went in 4v4 with him: Criticalled Sirens, no Ice wizard even blocked! There was 1 opponent with 100 block rating who didn't critical block. Is it possible to critical block Storm like that? Unless you have 105 critical block rating? Otherwise Storm is overpowered with that.

When a Storm chooses to go for Critical, all his other stats suffer. No offense, but did you honestly think you could survive a Storm battle without shields? Even if he had 5 Critical, you would die. Storm is overpowered this, Storm is overpowered that, you'd think we have a one pip million damage AoE. Shields are the key to success, stop complaining and restrategize. I have a hard time beating Ice, so I train and get stronger against them, it's more fun that way.

Apologies, didn't see the part where you said you had shielded, I was in conversation while reading. Yes, some Storms remove shields, thats why you cast them more then once.

The damage boost was at 75%. He hardly lost anything. And as I said, it was IMPOSSIBLE to critical block. A bunch of people complained when we did ranked pvp.

lol, your saying that your friend the storm wizard criticals all the time and the poor ice wizard didn't block? lol, so I am assuming that your friend did not have an issue killing the ice wizard? there is another post complaining about how powerful ice is because of their resist & block, and your here telling us how powerful your storm friend is and ice cannot block it.

A good Storm has at least 10% more Damage then that. Also, why didn't you attack him with lower pip, enchanted spells? According to the list of spells you cast, you're a Diviner with a Secondary school in Balance, and a third school in Ice. In my eyes, you should have used enchanted Krakens and Sharks before he could charge an attack and kill. Just because you couldn't block him, doesn't mean he was impossible to beat. I lose to Storms and don't Block, but I don't write posts about it......

I'm actually a Balance wizard, and I like spamming 1400 damage with Spectral Blasts, my type of spell

This isn't a complaint! I'm just asking if it's possible to critical block a Storm with 210 critical, thank you.
