Is Gazelle bugged?

Is the Gazelle damage bugged or is it supposed to hit for 10-20k? This is by no means a post that complains about druids and or soulbeasts but rather trying to get clarification as to why I'm getting close to 1 shot by pets.

Seems to me that the damage is a bit too high on, 10k-20k from a pet, even a buffed pet, seems silly.

That being said, it is fairly limited. Gazzelle has to slowly skip its way towards the target then stops for like 2 seconds before charging slightly faster in a really clearly telegraphed way. And those big hits are crits + a bunch of buffs (including attack of opportunity) and typically require taking BM as well (turns you to glass if taken with SB).

But despite that, I tend to agree its a bit too much. I wouldn't mind it toning down the damage but making it a bit quicker and less telegraphed.

ye, i was wondering aswell, why my gazelle was oneshotting ppl. in a different thread i read, that the gazelle charge, which is the skill that hits that high, is super ez to doge/misses in most of the cases and thats why it has to hit this high...i cant rly say im a friend of that explanation :D, but its still funny, to see my stupid goat being a bigger threat than myself.

It can hit even 50K! :D It needs to have all traits triggering in once, dealing 100% crit chance and 400% damage. It isnt happening often, but in testing against golems 13K was pretty much standard. It hits 4.5K without any traits, and opening shot only makes it hit 125% damage with 100% crit chance.

Nope. Received non-crit 21k damage the other day. Needless to say I immediately went down.

I was wondering the same thing. I have a very tanky build and the Gazelle was the 1st source of damage everytime I was getting killed by a specific ranger (happened again a few matches after). I was like what the heck is going on why that puny animal is dealing 8k damage with a random automatic ability ?

Waiting for corrections.
Otherwise overdamage from broken Gazelle can lead a cutting of the ranger himself.

Yes it's bugged. A pet skill should not be doing 10k+ damage.

Gazelle might be broken, but it's the only way to fight spellbreakers now! So if they fix spellbreaker too, I'm happy they fix gazelle dmg too.

And it's not a bug. It's just high in dmg. So when balance patch comes, it will get nerfed. Hopefully Spellbreaker too to the ground so we can actually start enjoying 1v1s again in PvP. :)

It has existed long long before POF hit check out Bootts Bad builds just it has Tiger do the 20k burst.

-Releases a ridiculously powerful pet with HoT (smokescale) and everyone loses their mind, then proceeds to nerf it time and time again.

-Repeats the same mistake with PoF /facepalm.

it just amplifies the the base damage with high %.No body played it cause Druid was always way better for the team,maybe now too.

I've been hit for over 70k.

It is a charge attack that hits the same target multiple times with its full damage. I am pretty sure this is not intended, thus a bug. It is somewhat similar to how fgs4 and some other skills worked except that it works without blink/without a wall because the charge is so slow.

The electric wyvern does the same thing with its F2, but because it lunges forward the target needs to against a wall.

Obviously!I mean 95% of pets can't hit anything and that is considered balanced, it has never been changed since launch...now god forbid you get a pet once in a while that can hit targets and players lose their shit; yes the attack is bugged and will be fixed , still....

The multiple hit is bug, the single hit however, is not

Too be fair, the Gazelle prances up to its target before it attacks. You have ample time to not get hit by it. I know because I watched one prance up to me, I stopped to pet it, then it hit me for 12k.
