    Potentially hot take, but I would not be against them making the Thrice-come Ruin debuff as the new standard punishment for eating mechanics.

    I assume they did it in Delubrum Reginae mostly to discourage lazy play from people using tanky essences that make surviving hits easy regardless of your role.

    Instead of two hits it should be a "three strikes and you're out" deal if you were to adopt it in other content.

    Sometimes when I read people talk about these games I wonder if they're even playing them and having fun?
    Am I the only one who actually think it's fun to dodge things?
    Same with stunning them from casting AoE, that's part of the fun imo and where the energy comes from it gives me a little kick to tap to the mob quickly and stun them.
    Or the stat debuff ability, I like to throw it in too if there's a mechanic that benefits from it.

    Just standing in one place and not reacting to anything just sounds really boring to me.

    Edit: What I mean is, it seems like a trend that people are actively trying to minimzie the amount of actual playing they do in games.

    Personally I would not mind more instant kill mechanics and a higher frequency especially in normal mode content

    If a person blatantly stands in AoEs and makes me use a ton of mana to heal them, I don't heal them. Simple as that. There are others in the group that are working hard to get through the content.

    Granted, there are quite a number of AoEs or other telegraphed attacks one can stand in and take minimal damage/debuff w/o greatly impacting DPS or finishing a boss off.

    There is a line between the two, however.
