CatR, that is one way to look at things...
"The only condition under which you wouldn't reasonably be able to gain foreknowledge is if you played Honour mode, and if you're playing Honour mode the first time you're playing the game you're playing it wrong" -> That is your way of reasoning.
The game is suppose to be challenging you into a fight
And when you're one level under your enemy but using all legendary items giving you more than 2000-2500 damage resistance ...in this case health and magic armor and some with fire resistance.... while you're pyrotechnic mage maxed out intellect and pyro at somewhat 17 is doing about 800 at most....this gives you an approximative damage that something should do to you.... so you shouldn't expect a fireball that does 5000 whatever damage....
If she does 5000 damage, then it shouldn't be a lvl 15.... show her as a lvl 20 and you would know not start a fight yet...
Now if the fight is "meh" after the initial fireball, then the fight has been poorly designed and should be rethink to tone down the initial fireball and increase the difficulty during the fight....
I'm playing honor mode as I've started to play Diablo 3 hardcore right away....
side note on diablo 3, nothing kills you one shot because they know better to let you time to adjust to survive....
Of course I had to restart a few times but when I got it going, it was easy to get to lvl 60 ...I was lvling my 10th and final character (since 10 was the maximum) to lvl60 using the special hc gears I had been able to find along the way....playing under lvl by 5 the whole time....and being OP ...but my 10th character I started to get "out of sync" issue with their server...I was moving around on my computer and my character would stay fit not doing anything on their server.....so I lost that character but more precisely that special gear...
Told blizzard, you had issue with your server and I died for that, I don't care about the character, but you're giving me my gear back or you're banned. They didn't want to.... never played or purchase a blizzard product since ...and I think it's the best gaming company...and ever once in a while when I receive a personal message from their end about their product, I simply remind them that I'll consider this once I get my stuff back.....even though I won't be playing d3 and it's been somewhat 10 years....it is about honor more than anything else
