The one before her is just a RoA exile is it not?

it might be dependent on the build your toon is, or something, in a weird way

I had the same exile mentioned in the op- RF, but she mostly did cold rain similar to the boss, lw, ball lightning, and some fire spell (dont remember what it was exactly)
the fire spell hit good, but not too hard. spark/ball lightning were whatever. the cold rain was crazy. it was at least 2.5 times the strength of the boss

Hmm, or class?

I've done this on a witch, a scion, a ranger and a templar.

Now, I did originally think there was more than one 'exile' boss. But the last several times it has always been the RoA ramger, but I now ALWAYS switch to my sword ranger for the boss room no matter who clears the map.

Almost all PoE unique maps are just insanely difficult.

Here in HC pretty much nobody runs all those unique maps, you cant even sell them for a couple of chaos...
Imho they all just are a big waste of developing time.
they are way to hard to run and way to less rewarding to even consider risking your char.

Or not, unique maps like Olmec's ,Death and Taxes ,Poorjoy, Acton's, Coward's Trial and Mao Kun are actually great and fun to run, not hard. And why playing HC in the first place if you're afraid ?

Speak for yourself, i run every unique map i can.

To OP: You are doing a level 72 map with 3K HP, you might wanna reconsider your build because that amount is super low sigh

The enemy before Tormented Temptress is the boss fight for the most part. Some warrior this "temptress" lured in anyway.

Tormented Temptress herself is the final encounter of the unique map, and she herself is very weak offensively. but very annoying all the same as she will constantly keep you chilled and will run away for the fight's duration.

Its a unique map, prepare for a unique challenge i suppose. The guy's rough for sure though.

That is probably my favorite area in the whole game. The build up is fantastic with the light radius going up and down and then you get to push that big vaal boulder and get to see what over powered exile comes out.

First time I played it I met the shadow I think, who throws traps all over. I was a bow ranger so I had no trouble with either boss.

I met the super igna phoenix version once with a cast on crit character but my life and defenses were too poor so I couldn't finish them. I manged to get her down with my flame blast character.

Two days ago I ran this in bloodlines with a high block chance (64/32) character. The exiles that spawned was TWO marauders with cyclone and they constantly summoned raging spirits. The raging spirits actually kept me alive because of Aeigis aurora and reckoning but my FPS dropped to 1 because too many things happened at once so I had to log out. That was too bad because it was really exciting.

Are the bosses too hard? No, but they are hard. They are also special. The last boss is indeed annoying but it feels good when you finally take her down.

Think about what you can do different, both regarding tactics and your build and gear and I am sure that you will complete the map at some point. The challenge is there and it is absolutely doable.

The second form of this boss is retarded, as a caster I had to switch my main skill for a fireball trap (100% ignite) and a second skill using a lightning warp totem and even then I chased her a good amount of time cause she disabled my traps with her ice nova and all. I guess GGG wanted to have some fun. Otherwise, the map's mechanics and music make it my favorite

The strategy with this boss could be using temp chain on her + a trap and you wearing at least one or 2 immune to freeze and chill flasks. Puncture trap is great, but it's limited only to bow characters so...

the first time I encountered the Righteous Fire nemesis she wooped my ass and I immediately started a character to copy that design :)
