Who skips Desert spring boss?

Sand King cometh

Soul of Shakari is good. So I always do it once with a divine vessel and never ever again during the whole league.

Desert spring boss is my most skipped, I generally kill bosses because I try to maximise my map return but the Scorpion takes so long you can run a full map in the time it takes to do this boss and that isn't hypebole.

Zone in arena > Push boss to 2/3rds instantly > 45s gauntlet ish zzzzz > boss does jumping burrow for 10s, push to 1/3rd, invul again spawns adds in the middle for another 15s, comes back out invul again for another jumping burrow > kill.

Its gotta be something between 2-3 minutes and that is ignoring the bosses actual health bar with a high damage character, if your on a low dps character your easily looking at 5.

Thank the Vaal Gods, Vilenta is not a map boss.
Oh wait

That would not change anything. Vilenta as a map boss will became just another boss to kill one time and skip forever. It is really a pity that GGG does not intend to end this stupidity.
Shakari, Belfry and Lava Lake Kitavas, idiot from Basilica, nonsense from Terrace or even thing from Reef map, after first killing is skipped by 99% of players. Yet, apparently somebody spent a lot of time to design these abominations. Completely wasted time.

i rather skip the core boss

I kill all the bosses all the time. Playing SC helps, but I feel the boss fights are just more fun than face rolling a bunch of trash mobs. I'm also not so hard up for speed farming that I care about the time spent in the sand corridor.

This is one of my favorite maps because of the open layout and the fact theres basically no boss :S

It would be a real hoot if GGG made the next league's challenge to kill map shakiri 300 times.
