I got about 1000 or so health on my assassin and I dropped like a fly. I noticed it said I took 1005 damage!? Why and what is this about?

I'm not 100% sure this is still the case or not, but I did work with the combat team for a bit early in the project and there used to be a combo attack on the archers. Basically, if you see a group of archers close together and they raise their bows above their heads, they are synching their target.

When this happens find cover... fast, as they will then simultaneously perform a charged shot at a single target.

As was mentioned above, the Archers have an attack called 'Volley' which basically just syncs all their attacks up on the same target so that may be what you're seeing - you can tell because they'll do a fistpump when they start it ("HOOWAH!")

 

As for the crazy high damage, I'd have to investigate but my guess is that in some cases you're seeing the damage being done to your barrier health. Barrier math is calculated before armor and other resistances so the numbers will keep getting higher the higher the creature you're fighting is.

I'll take a look at this ability to see if something fishy is going on. Thanks for the info, videos definitely help a lot more.
