[Blood Bank design error?]

I think it was intentional.  They probably don't want the great sword and parasitic contagion % based heals to count because it would be OP or some such.

Regardless of whether it's good or not, I don't think anything should be doing this kind of damage. Engi can do a lot of damage, yeah, but only really with Grenade Barrage which is on a 25recharge.

With Power Harbi I literally have 5 skills that have one shot potential. You can't even dodge every skill I can use, that can each hit for 15k+, unless you're a Daredevil.
That doesn't mean I'm going to be able to reliably hit with all of those skills considering how vulnerable Power Harbi is, I just mean that it has so many ways to do lethal damage that it's very easy to faceroll with.

It's meme tier like Gunflame Berserker, just as I'd figured it would be. And I don't think that's a healthy thing to have in the game. Damage should be brought down a bit and it should get some kind of utility and defensive buffs to compensate. 

Were you able to get these numbers without the story instance buff?  I'm not seeing any Harbinger ability doing anywhere near 15k+ damage.  I have tried a number of builds.  How are you getting these numbers?

Are you playing a Power build? I'm full glass Power.

Also, you get a damage booster during the first story mission from Aurene, that's why I did so much damage. 

That story mission buff must have been it.  I am not full power glass cannon, but pretty close. so 5-8x damage had to be something else special.

Yeah, um... It's gonna get a hard nerf, there's no way.

I'm loving this spec right now, it is an absolute blast, but the damage is something else. 1 - 2 shotting people left and right in WvW.

59k Dark Barrage in the story mission.
17k Elixir
Also hit a couple 18 and 19k Voracious Arcs that I wasn't able to capture because team fights, but... Just wow, lol. I'm not saying this in a negative way, because I find it super fun, I just can't see this staying as it is for very long.

 

Are Aetherlades special mobs? because my dark barrages are hitting for 1k-2k crit per bullet.  No where near your screenshots there.  I have tried against guards, normal mobs, champs, etc.

Are you talking about Alchemic Vigor or is there something else I should be looking for?

Shrouded removal + antitoxin = 600 toughness

You can stay soul reaping / DM or you can roll with spite / DM for more damage. If you roll spite just run with precision major stat set. Unholy sanctuary IMO is BIS but if you want the protection then you can go fervor.

You can also take DM / curses, which will make it easier to stack fervor if you are having trouble.

There’s another build I’ve yet to theorycraft which involves using Max toughness build and negating damage with passive heal procs from signet of vampirism. The idea is that you want to roll toughness major stats, and reduce damage with rise + protection from fervor (along with other damage reduction mods) to get enough damage reduction to get canceled out by passive healing procs.

Can you post your build? Thanks.
