Racecourse, wtf is that shit? Tier 6. They hit like a damn truck.

Edit: Got hit with bleed from off screen rip lvl 83.

You sure it was bleed? They reflect...

Coves works best with multiprojectile mod :P

Only the bull has the reflect aura. The Mad Gladiator inflicts bleed with his throwing knife attack.

It's easy to pull them 1 at a time if anyone is having issues.

actually unless you have increased aoe on the map if you stand directly on top of the boss the mortars cant hit you because they have a minimum range

My feedback as AW totem chieftain: place totems, run around a bit, get loot.

current character is Whispering Ice, but I also have a Warchief Totem Templar. he is a bit low level for this content yet does feel as powerful as you described.

however, I imagine bosses with high damage and AoE (e.g. Gorge, Plateu) will probably not be easier with the totem char compared to the caster char. they'll destroy the totems in a second.

I did Gorge with crit and damage mod, totems lived through the whole boss fight. It's ridiculous.

The Rhoa with the egg nests (forgot the map but it's a low tier) is pretty damn hard, reminded me of Argus. I guess it's easier if you don't pop the nests but still, the damage is quite extreme for the map's tier.

Another issue I found are twinned maps that already have two bosses together, which seems to be common, that's pretty overkill.

This is actually one of my favorite things. It makes farming for Sac Frags very efficient. Corrupting your Courtyards, Arenas, etc. makes farming up sets much less time consuming. Corrupting TWINNED versions is even better.


As for the Rhoa in Arid Lake, The boss only really hits hard when he charges. Using a decoy totem basically negates this entirely. Put a decoy against a far wall, and get behind him when he charges.

I did twinned plateau and did not find it remotely amusing. Ditto gorge.

That racecourse thing really depends on your character. I did it easily with totem guy, other guy, melee, went bad.
