The Fall of Oriath Teaser: Abberath Fight

Spoilers :|

Even boss picture is thrown into main screen :| (Or maybe that's not the boss? Please tell me its not!)

Wish there was anti-spoiler policy within GGG :|

I am trying to be 3.0 virgin, but GGG is rubbing those spoilers against me.
Saving myself for that pure, polished 3.0

I must start the church of gaming and write 10 commandments!

P.S. Avoided watching the vid >:D Take that GGG!

Exactly my opinion.

Note that the showcase is using meh flasks & meh spells to let you know how easy it will be to rekt their content :p
Looks awesome! The boss reminds me of the 2011 movie "The Thing" - remember the scene where The Thing absorbs two people at once, and has two faces?
1) This meme I made long ago was never so appropriate.


2) New fireball skin? :D
I shall purify you in flame, noob of nightmare!

Gods should have several stages, like Dominus. Fight with crab boss was better, this fight is boring. Also hello Baron of Hell and Cyberdemon from Doom 1993 year. Somewhat disappointed.

Of course it will be... it's not end game T16+ they are showing... it's lvl55ish a little more the half way through the story.

So if you go full out OP meta it will probably be very easy, no question about that.
They can't and shouldn't balance for that though since it would exclude probably 90% of the playbase (at lvl55).

The content in the storyarc needs to be playable for the majority of the playerbase. End game content? now there one can go bananas with the balance, it's end after all.

Please dont take this the wrong way but this looked underwhelming, especially when compared with brine king and other fights in PoE already. That art work was pretty mediocre and i was hoping for a more demonic goat. The skills he uses seem themed with some of his items but that fight wasnt flashy at all. I hope the art team and boss script writers do some work on this one before beta/release.

Something cool like loads of goatmen watching him fight, then periodically Having the boss send in swarms of goatmen. But the goatmen are so loyal they light themselves on fire to do righteous fire style damage. More themed skills would be good too and him using his aberath hooves unique boots ability all the time when he moves would be good.

Lastly the fire pools look so plastique to me. They just look so off compared to what the excellent art team usually produces.


This guy isn't an act boss like Brine King. He already has a multistage fight, it looks pretty damn cool to me.
WE NEED A BOSS HP BAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looking great! Can we have Abberath's dynamic flames for the infernal armour mtx please? This would be SO much nicer than the static flames that keep burning upwards during movement.
Sorry to hijack this announcement, but did you announced Oriath will be at least 4 Weeks later than originally planned or did you just stealth-changed the timeline on your website without announcement?

I know it has been asked before, but will legacy league take till july or will it end as planned?

For those who diddn't notice, just scroll down to the timeline here:
