Okay, was that hill giant fight a fluke, or are they really that freaking tough? Up until now I've been fighting Paineel Guards, which are the same level range as hill giants, 33-37. I can take them on with pretty much no trouble now, lose maybe 30-40% health doing straight up melee with a damage shield and a weak dot.

I go toe to toe with a single hill giant in WK and it beats my ass purple. I engage it at full HP/Mana with all buffs up, hit after hit it's scoring 90 maxes, multiple swings, ripostes are hitting for the max, and before I've even worn it down into its 60s I have to make a run for it and get enough space to heal myself. It's constantly breaking root early, Stinging Swarm and 9 DS barely scrapes the surface of its HP, and I have to kite the damn thing across WK for fifteen minutes to finally med enough HP/Mana to bring it down the rest of the way, and nearly die doing that, almost running right into Maligar.

I'm sorry, but I'm level 40, they con blue to me, and I don't remember them being a severely underconned enemy from live, so was that a fluke, bad luck on my part, or are they really that ridiculously strong for their level?

If they're all like this, then there's no way I can reasonably camp them at 40. I'll have to try again when I hit 45 or so.
