Rextroy: One Shotting The Underpin
Rextroy has returned with another video, this time showcasing the potential of The Blood is Life, a talent with broken scaling that enabled one shotting The Underpin, world bosses, and bosses in battlegrounds.

It must be that some NPCs in this game is recieving hidden scaled up damage "in the background" that adds to the talents damage output... or something. I really wonder how many layers of scaling they have added ontop of eachother in the code...
Anyway the one shot is fairly simple, just get a spawn of the Blood Beast from the Hero talent, and let it auto hit training dummies for a massive explosion.
This works to one shot hordes, to destroy world bosses, the underpin challenge turns into a walk in the park... and even Battleground bosses are easily dealt with (such as High Warlord Volrath in Ashran).
Also the Damage Cap in WoW is still intact, even if it looks like you are doing more than 536 million damage, it is not the case (or well it is but only as long as the NPC you are hitting is "scaling" its HP as you get gear).
I reported the bug and it has been fixed, since being able to one shot the Underpin would ruin the challenge of ?? difficulty (the one shot in the video is done on the easiest difficulty, just to showcase the potential of it)
