Of course, this mere Level 14 skill was not truly invincible. First of all, the Block Value of the shield and the Protective Value of the barrier had resistance that could effectively resist explosive damage. Moreover, as long as one moved slightly away from the center of the explosion, the damage would exponentially decrease.
Generally speaking, medium-sized characters (humans) of Level 20 and above, if equipped and prepared, could easily avoid this strike. And those above Level 15, if prepared, would at most only suffer moderate damage as long as they were not near the center of the blast.
Just like the earlier Dragon's Servants, after suffering heavy losses in the first and second round of explosions, their casualty rate subsequently dropped significantly. Of course, the repelling effect of the Fire Giant was top-notch. After all, with its theoretical damage being top-level, who wouldn't try to avoid it?
Those who didn't share this thought had all turned into ashes.
