Torture chamber, Labrynth, Jungle Valley, Necropolis... Whats the point?

lol i had those boots and i think i npcd em, thx for the tip man useful really

You are very much welcome.

I can tell you for a fact for example, that the jungle valley boss without attack modifiers deals 550+- chaos damage on 75% chaos resistance.

With -60 chaos resistance that turns into around 2000+- damage. So getting even around +25% (which these boots + amethyst flask allow) will easily halve his chaos damage output.

His ek is 50% physical/50% chaos, which is why he is so harsh on most builds. Most people run around with -60%.

What most people forget is that there are ways to mitigate these threats and that they are a "singular event" within a map, which allows planning prior to engage.

The labyrinth rapid ek is also partially chaos if i am not mistaken, so this will also help vs him. But i don't know the numbers on him.

The thing to note about labyrinth is that the devourers act like ammunition. If you kill them, he can fire the rapid EK, if you keep them alive he will use it one time (start of fight) and then after that he can't.

It's like the voirici mission "keep the guards alive", bait his first attack manually dodge it and then facetank them all if possible for your build and use a single target on the boss.

If you can't do that, consider chaos resistance as a defense or spell block which is also valuable against these bosses.

Peace,

edit : typo.

Labyrinth is 100% phys. Tested it many times and anyone can test it by using Aegis aurora(you will lose ES, not life) or IC.

Jungle valley im not sure but would think its 100% or close to it chaos on his EK? My CI didnt take any dmg from it and I didnt have any spell block.

Meanwhile my life build takes about 2k dmg per jungley valley EK and it doesnt seem to matter if I have IC up or not.

Dusktoe really makes jungle valley joke.

^yeah i was not sure about labyrinth, i don't run that map very often, i am however pretty sure jungle valley is 50%/50%.

When my low life no shavs char takes his EK i lose energy shield and life, maybe it's a coincidence of the creeps in the room hitting me do, not entirely sure know.

Maybe i just got hit by the room mobs every-time he ek's so it is possible it's a 100% chaos ek.

What is however a guarantee is that dusk-toe is easily disregarded as a "useless" unique, while it is in fact very powerful if used correctly.

Peace,

Jungle valley, ya boss can be fairly difficult until you pass the threshold to beat it easily. It's the only map above lvl 72 that I can clear in 2-3 mins, with maybe the exception of shipyard(I almost always seem to have stragglers that I miss). Oh forgot about dark forest, another exception. Has become one of my preferred maps when I decide to do a master grind.

point is most of those bosses are close to impossible on same level

noone does torture when he is 72
noone does orchard which can obliterate a 80+ in seconds its a 66 map and you have to be careful come on
museum is the same nothing in that 68 map lets you assume that the difficulty will skyrocket
the weaver fight is a fps killer

I honestly don't understand why torture chamber boss is considered difficult. Bait the laser, then you get 20 seconds to attack the boss, just keep moving so you don't get toppled with the lightning warp totems. Rinse and repeat as necessary.

Because it's different from the rest. People go there for the first time, get pwnd, don't care to analyze how it happened, call it stupid op mechanics and never do it again.

Not everyone obviously but the average PoE-Joe.

Ya, I can understand the first encounter, I was pretty scared of it my first time too, especially since it was so hyped up :P
