Melee friendly or unfriendly, I still be able to wipe the floor with the boss as BV "melee" in about 5-10 seconds even while leveling. No need of those fancy effects. If they put it as a map boss encounter, you can be pretty sure that meta builds will kill it faster. I represent only myself, my own thought and believes. I am individual, not a representative of the community. I am not speaking on behalf of someone else and I don't get offended by things that have nothing to do with me.

The effects are amazing, it all looks beautiful. But... What we REALLY need now is a permanently-displayed boss lifebar during the fight, just like in Diablo2 or Diablo3 !	Posted by FNX_Heroes on Apr 20, 2017, 6:27:22 AM Quote this Post

Before i give feedback regarding the fight i just wanted to say that it looks awsome! The setting, the water physics, the music - everything feels epic. GGG did a great job. Now to the mechanics of the fight itself: (Wont quote the full thing, save us a wall of text, original comment pg 16 of this forum post) Just looking through the points you made, quite a fair overview of the fight mechanics. My point is not that Melee will have it easy in this fight. The point I'm making is that for the last 30% of this fight the advantages of ranged are removed. And that removing the mobility advantaged of ranged you actually make it more difficult for ranged than melee since ranged characters most likely lack the defences to deal with the up-close fighting style. Bear this guy did this fight with no defensive mechanics apart from flasks. If you do this fight with 6 Endurance charges, fortify, decoy totems and CoDT Immortal call it could actually be easy. Most of these are more consistent with melee than with ranged but as you mentioned Good luck to EV melee.	Posted by Tyoll on Apr 20, 2017, 6:33:27 AM Quote this Post
I expect that all bosses in Fall of Oriath don't be apellative as Malachai is actually. The major problem with PoE is that ANY MONSTER can kill you with a single strike in maps or endgame. This is the greatest problem of PoE, at least in my view. And the bosses have their stats overpowered just to give the impression that they are bosses. If GGG don't make "new boss fights" like the Malachai fights will be a great advance. Bosses don't need to be apellative. They need to be clever or at least have an AI similar to "human players". In this particular fight we see a repetitive mechanic of fight. And I ask you ... Where is the intelligence of bosses?

the death at the end should suggest us that life and evasion builds will still suck and we should continue with es based builds XD	Posted by Giammafix on Apr 20, 2017, 6:40:45 AM Quote this Post
