Zana spawned in ledge, opened a lvl69 village ruin. Eh, it's just lvl69, I'm lvl93 I bet I could take the boss no problem. Go in, kill the turkey, the dog jumps on me and kills me in 1 hit. Not ever doing that again.

" When you kill one, the other enrages. Bring both to less than 10% then instakill with culling strike if you don't have enough damage to melt them immediately. They still hit hard but they don't oneshot. The Wheel of Nerfs turns, and builds come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the build that gave it birth comes again. Last edited by Bars on May 17, 2016, 7:23:09 AM

@outspokened - great to see a new poster. Gratz on 90! Keep going and see how the early 90s are.
SasoriOtoko - I ripped early twice on 95, both under 3% - a hint. When you finish a level, you;re all - oh great leveled, now I'm going to have some fun. Then you muck around and go crazy becaause you have so little exp on the new lvl. It's good to go slow when starting a new lvl. It's a bit like when I used to play poker. If you win a big hand, you have to stay as staedy as if you've just lost one. Same with POE, take it easy after winning a level, or you'll rip early, which is okay, but will slow you down. LightningStars gratz on 93 - keep going! Deadpeng - 97 - that was fast! Bars - thanks for giving us some good advice! Good to see everyone's progress. Finished at 96 40% last night. Good to get a 'free' level as this is as fast as 95, but I'm dreading a rip of course. Map pool ok. Nerves are kicking in as I've got some exp. Good luck to all!

"Learnt my lesson when I first met em. I lure one of them out then it's all good. I find the turkey deadlier than the dog tbh. That trap + ROA combo ain't fun to deal with. |

I know about the enrage I would never run village ruin in most cases. But I thought a lvl69 version of it would be easy compared to the lvl80 default. But nope, 10k armor, 5.8k EHP, 78% block and the stupid dog kills me in one hit

" Oh I haven't hit 90 yet but thanks for the encouragement. 50% more and I hit 90 :)! |

" True story: I was at 99.9% from lvl 90-91, at the end of an orchard map, so I figured I'd sit it out and let my guildmate solo... The devourer boss popped up downstairs. I am not pulling your leg, scout's honor, cross my heart, etc. "Dude he fucking said hotdog racist.

" Turnip, Yeah, for sure I do that...but what is odd is that I have mowed down countless Reflect modded rares and while I've seen my life drop, it has never been all that close as my legacy Eternal flask can refill the life almost instantly. Then after getting the level and changing my armour (only lost a little stun recovery and chaos resist but gained about 310 life) suddenly one reflect monster nearly kills me, while the next one destroys me? Only other change was a jewel that gave me 4% more attack speed...but again, my life was up by quite a bit. Perhaps the maps had the right kind of mods to cause more damage and I've just been insanely lucky so far...I think I will start avoiding reflect foes from now on. Since I'm doing a lot of small hits even if I pepper one a few times it won't cause too much damage, but when I focus all of my assault on one foe the DPS ramps up very quickly. So the moral of this story is simple: 1) No taking on crazy bosses! 2) Stick with blue maps! 3) No, and I mean NO STRONGBOXES (waaah) 4) No reflect monsters! DHMcGhee - Yeah that Orchard boss is straight out of the 7th level of hell. When I was first playing a guildie and I tried to take him on and he killed us both in painful shame. We resurrected and were standing outside the entrance to his lair talking about how strong he was, should we try again and then the mofo POPS UP OUTSIDE OF HIS CHAMBER and kills us both again. I saw that happen during many map runs...just way too overpowered for his level and DOES NOT stay in his chamber (maybe fixed since 1.3?)...I avoid him like the plague. :D Shock and Horror...now that boss is nasty...but I love facetanking him. Some times he gets me...but many times he does not. My high regen Occultist can eat his laser and still regen...lol...I love doing that. 8) Speaking of which...do the rest of you take on any (or all) bosses while grinding? These are the map bosses I will always kill to try and get maps: Arid Lake (very easy) Gorge (easy) Plateau (very easy) Bazaar (is this a boss? LOL) Chateau (easy, but can be dangerous) Underground River (pathetic) Precinct (a bit risky...she can be deadly) Springs (carefully) Arsenal (pathetic) Shipyard (easy) For any other red map I portal in my Occultist to kill the boss...but it does slow you down (but map drops are worth it). I could probably take on most others...but it is just too risky (Academy boss - I'm looking AT YOU!) :-) |

@Outspokened. Gl with getting to 90 and beyond :)
Yea Academy boss sucks. I avoid. All other bosses seems like I agree with the difficulty rating. Turnip |
