i discover on my combat log one people is capable to strike me 3times with 3differents skills in the same seconde .
like per exemple :
02:21:03 Txxxx's Not so Fast§ crit you for 792
02:21:03 Txxxx's Rotten Arrer crit you for 492
02:21:03 Txxxx's Finish'em Off hits you for 1082

someone can explain me how it is possible because i think this player is a cheater .
Maybe this class don't have global cooldown?

Hey there, I don't think that person is cheating.
Here is why:

First thing to clarify is that the timer from the combat log lumps everything within the same second together under the same label.
So if something hits you at 02:21:03 and 0 hundredths of a second or if it hits you at 02:21:03 and 99 hundredths of a second, they will both be labelled as 02:21:03. This effectively means that those 3 instances of damage have happened normally within 1 second.
As for how that's possible...
  • Not So Fast (https://war-abilityviewer.dalen.io/ability/1835) is a cast ability (while moving). The way cast abilities work is that their GCD starts when you press them, regardless of when their cast time is completed. This means that if they used it at t - 0 s, then it would complete casting at t = 1 s and the GCD would end at 1.5 s. This would allow for 2 close damage instances at t = 1 s and t = 1.5 s
  • This is what probably happened here, especially since both Not So Fast and Finish 'em Off (https://war-abilityviewer.dalen.io/ability/1848) have the same travel speed (2000). It might have also lined up with the Rotten Arrer tick to make you receive 3 damage instances under 1 s.

Wait until you get timestamped by ST specced sorc/bw. If you let them, they'll drop your HP from 100% to 0% within couple off global cooldowns once their burst connects.

Not everything that kills you is an exploit or cheat.
