After watching this video I'm little bit concern about flask refill during this fight. It was quite long and Kaom spawns minions only once...

AND...

What the heck is The Eye Of Fury??? :D - is it another new item type?

Based on green color it's most probably quest item.

People need to calm down about the fight appearing to be lackluster; as it has been mentioned several times, the Kaom on display was a low level cruel version which I am quite sure the Merciless version or map version (if there is one) will be much more intense.

Beta! This will be addressed in beta. You wouldn't want to face a crazed version of Kaom not vetted through the beta process on your first go around leading to people being discouraged with the game. If you recall, Invasion was a "nightmare" scenario in its early iteration that caused players to shelf PoE until it was balanced.

This ALL needs to be worked out before public release.

Thanks for sharing! ^^

Damn! Can't wait to fight this Dude :)

do some people really think that would be the final boss of A4? not a chance :P the final boss fight will be far more epic I think. Wouldn't drop a green key thing either if it was

Peope cry the game is too hard, too many one shots, too many gear checks...
After smn of those is fixed they cry the game is too easy, walk in the park, hold right click fest.
Fuck you, people.

On topic. Boss looks cool, cant wait to see merciless/map version. Surely it will have some new mechanics added.

RIPERINO 3 TIMES? LOL

Keep in mind that is a demo char and he was probably trying to make the boss look hard.

Not saying kaom merc/cruel wont be hard, but you cant really tell from these demos.

Also this was normal.

no, it was cruel. He dropped a level 58 req armor.

Unique mobs drop items from +2 levels. So he was fighting in at least a level 56 zone. He was in cruel.

That's weird because he only lost 5% XP on death.

Fairly cool approach, couldn't help thinking of Kaom as Kole 2.0 cept with fire damage too.


Even though the dev died few times, they were pretty silly deaths that could have easily been avoided (maybe he didn't try hard on purpose methinks). As people mentioned, seems way too few minion spawns for maintaining flask charges - a problem when it comes to HC and higher difficulties where more focus is on survival.

Atm I find Dominus fight more enjoyable that Kaom as its currently pictured. But no doubt things will change and he'll get much more buffs at Merc/post-beta, so that should prove interesting.

Kaom's look amazing :)
