Fix Terrace Map Boss
|
Though path of exile present many different bosses with unique strategies and gimmicks I feel this map boss is just a broken mess. The root of this involves his cannibal ability which heals him for a lot of health whenever he consumes a corpse. This wouldn’t be so bad if he was only able to eat the mobs present in his room but instead he continually spawn devours which he then eats. In my runs I found it is impossible to hurt this boss due to the constant use of cannibal. This needs to be addressed as no boss should just be able to heal as you mitigate his spawn while trying to kill it. I feel a good solution would be to severely limit his use of cannibal so it is not spammed till he is unkillable or lessen the spawn rate of the devourers to allow for some counter attack. As it stand he just laughs at any pitful attempt to hurt him while eating an endless buffet of devourer legs.

in order for him to heal by eating corpses, the devourers have to
1)die 2)have their corpses present for him to consume see what Im hinting at ? ;) |

Either destroy the corpses so he can't eat them or get more dps. If you leave the corpses intact the boss is basically a dps check, can you deal damage faster than he can regen.

Yeah, this boss was a huge pain in the ass (I wrote a similar feedback post) until I switched to HoI for the shattering. Made it a fuckton easier.

I'm with you, OP.
For lots of builds it's not easy to shatter or otherwise destroy corpses. On my essence drain character, he out-healed my essence drain (which was like, 17k dps). That's absurd. I can understand healing about 10k health per second, but 20k??? That's insanity. I would rather he do more damage but be killable than do no damage at all and regenerate 20,000 health per second. |

That boss is actually a giant dickhead I support the nerf thing despite I killed him in mere seconds I can understand if the person doesn't have enough dps lol

You could actually move him away from the devourers before the patch, now they always spawn on you. He was killable by any build and face-tankable before, now he does much less damage but also never dies. I sat there with totems and curse up spamming Flesh Offering and he took no damage with level 19 skill gems. I don't do any cold damage so can't really shatter.
" I guess I'll come back at 91 with level 21 skills and 6 link to beat a tier 7 boss because I'm not playing the best build of the league. |
