Fuck you Porcupine mobs or whatever you are.

I prepare myself for the rage when i start this queen of the forest/6h sword build.

6-handed sword?

This is why Pyre is my favorite unique: Porc goes splat and no spines. Same with necromances. Can't raise them when they splat. And detonate dead. Splat wins every time.

I'm sorry my other char with her 12.4k ES can't hear you or my other chars voices she puts on her shades and be like.

This is PoE.

Shit... You pop an entire pack of those porcupines in a pack size RED tier map with vuln, ele weak, and a couple of damage mods and watch even 10K ES get chunked off if you dont get the hell out of dodge. CODT+IC helps alot but it still wont save you by any means. You pretty much have to kill them one at a time or if your like me and use something that kills them all at the same time RUN and get behind something because in the right situation they can destroy even 12 ES builds. Pyre, Htared+HOI, DD, things like that work well too but not all builds have these and if you dont have something that destroys the corpse instantly then they can pose a real problem.

You can also drop totems or a AoE DoT, then turn around a corner or hide behind other hard cover and watch the quills rain past. If you're melee, though, you're screwed.

Freeze and shatter them? no spike if they get shatter killed. If not then stop using evasion? it still is the most laughable damage mitigation type.

Oh yeah when the build focuses on evasion yeah real good guy and the gear involves you know literally all green.

Yeah great idea.

Cold damage is dex aligned :P

PS: If you can spare a ring slot, Pyre gets the job done as well.

EDIT: Oh wait you were replying to the 'stop using evasion' part, not the 'shatter enemies' part.
