This is basically the key.

There are 3 different kinds of armors in the game: Plate, Leather and Cloth Armor.
These yield different defensive boni. Plate gives you the highest endurance, then leather, then cloth.

A ninja is a cloth class, so basically, you have the lowest amount of endurance added by gear. Basically you make up for it with a little bit more of health (normally around 140-160 I think, not a ninja player, don't beat me up for this :D).

But what is really important, if you are one hit and you don't know where you got the damage, you have to put more effort into learning the associated boss. You must be able to dodge all attacks which are life threatening to you, so concentrate on reading the boss rather than dealing damage in the first few runs. If you are able to predict the boss movements and dodge in time, your DPS will get higher automatically.

Hope that helped a bit!

have anyone mentioned the oneshot mechanics yet?

No.

@midoelooo Pls also tell us at which boss which attack killed you.

You should primarly take care of your surroundings. After a couple of runs you should know what animation is the start of a "deadly" attack. "Just" press one of your evasion skills at the right time (or run away). Sure, you can't always react in some cases or your timing is a tad bit too slow, but you shouldn't one shot that easily in general...

As for your roll, the chest is kind of not good.... Frontal Damage, Flat damage, Enrage damage reduction should be rolled there , if you can afford it then put a grounded etching on it.

the 3rd boss in velik holdand in general bossed 1 shot or 2 shot me on other dungeons
and im the only one who dies very often

As Leviathan said reroll your chest.
The endboss in VH doesn't really have oneshots but the circles that appear after he destroyed a crystal these oneshot you. You probably also get hit by the double slam for that you just need to look at his left arm (the one with the axe). He punches the ground with that the double slam might appear. Also if you die a lot in a dungeon ask a guild member to explain to you the oneshots or look up a guide on essentialmana.

The circles from the crystals "just" deal 40k flat damage. At least I receive this much for leather armor (even on my Valkyrie with less defense) and the heals (usually cloth) do withstand that as well... However, if you stand within the pulsating areas (the result of the smashed crystal) then this is deadly for sure. Best is to stay and wait in the middle in the room at all times.

Also, if he isn't too far into the boss the double slam will not reach him. I always stand in the big red area and continue to deal damage and not getting hit by it. The only (possibly) deadly thing for cloth close combat could be his spin which is indicated by two trapezoidal red areas on the ground. The "fall for me" technique where he has to stand to the side of the boss could possibly be killing matter... Other attacks can be pretty easily avoid, just wait for his head to turn back.. then you know that something is coming..

I'm main Ninja, I had a Guile too and usually I was never oneshotted by that boss (I don't want to be vain, I said it just to make it clear that Ninja can take every hit from that boss in NM)... probably you take lot of damage because chest rolls aren't very good, but I think that maybe you weren't actually 100% HP and you didn't noticed.
IN VHNM the only treats for you should be the last boss double slam (if you take both hits and you're not 100% HP, you're probably going to die) and the spinning attack form last and first boss if you don't get back/iframe in a short time.
Maybe the "behind me" mecchanic, but you can easily avoid it if you stay by its side.

Two sincere advices:

• reroll the weapon and gloves too: double crit rate and crt dmg on weapon isn't good, look for double enraged-back dmg-flat dmg, and power-crt rate-att speed on gloves;

• don't waste one thousand cuts during dps, use it as iframe skill... it's a lifesaver; I don't know you, so maybe you do it right but... I see many ninjas using it just as dps filler.
