Resistances and damage

Either damage is overtuned across the board, resistances are undertuned, or I just don't know what I'm doing (please help). I keep dying to random things in the map like invisible exploding corpses, or elemental traps, or just random trash mobs jumping from the edge of the screen to stomp my face.

Anyway, I have 61% lightning res, I'm lvl 79, doing a tier 8 / lvl 73 map, 1,583 health, and a lightning trap (timed circle trap) just took out 80% of my health. This isn't an isolated thing either. I have 75% fire res, 62% cold res, 52% armour, 67% evasion, and I'm still getting one shot by the most random things that should not be killing me with my stats and being 6+ levels above the enemies in the map.

Am I just dumb? Do I not understand PoE 2?

I don't know man, but I just found your post because I'm feeling the same.

I have capped resists and random shit is commonly killing me. Its patterns though, so I think some things are overtuned... I don't know, but similar thoughts.

There are certain lighting looking bolts, from normal mobs, two different ones, that always hit hard as fuck- also extremely quick and seem to be targeted, its hard to tell. I think one is lightning corruption mobs, those are quick yellow bolts that hit hard. Then blue ones from skeleton normal mobs, feathers on their heads I think- I think they hit the ground with aoe.

The fire dancer vaal guys hit super super super hard.

If the fire lasers start to hit you, you're just dead, full resists. You used to be able to just spam dodge roll and avoid, now you just die. You can easily avoid if up close, but if you happen to be a bit away you're cooked.

Ice skeletons, the ice looks green, hit hard as hell. Really hard, also capped resists. Ice right now is busted as well, if you get touched you get HARD slowed. Attack speed to nothing, movement to nothing, health to nothing.

Lots of frustrating things in the game atm. Frustrating enough I'm here fucking typing, because I've had enough of the game.

Its my weekend, and I'm just rolling my eyes and shaking my head at the game.

I don't mind being able to die, I want that. I could also avoid dying, play slower and more carefully; but I like to go in and try to outplay. I'm just slowed by something all the fucking time, fuck. I need to get slow resistance or something.

Game is starting to just get annoying.
