Mastermind fight

I just did the mastermind syndicate boss fight for the second time this league and i failed miserably. All 6 portals gone and all the 60% progress i had to lvl 95. Awesome and it doesn't seem like i get another attempt to do it. The progress bar is on zero again. So i didn't get anything for this?

Also i don't understand. It was much harder than the first time i did this fight when i was much lower level. Maybe lvl 80 something. Has the fight been made harder in a patch? I had no problems doing it the first time. A death or two perhaps until i learnt what to do.

Is there something i have missed that made this fight 10 times harder? I kept getting one shot most of the deaths except one or two when i got hit by the pillar in the middle. That thing almost one shot me with 7,3k life as a caster.

Happened exactly the same to me.
First time was easy enough after I figured out what to do. This time I had no chance, lots of stuff just one-shotting me ...

Just tried it with someone that said he could do it. He could not. What a hot steaming pile of shit this fight is. I had no idea what was even going on. Bullshit.

Yes it's pretty hard. Can be a good or bad thing. Feels almost like über elder. Very challenging. My gripe is that it's very costly to learn the mechanics which can lead to frustration.

In delve, if we find a boss atleast we can try an unlimited number of times as long as we have the sulphite but it takes quite a long time to fill up the progress bar for another attempt with the mastermind.

I did the fight the first time before they added the treasure rooms and it was much easier then as already mentioned.

Does anyone know if the fight is scaled by charachter level or something? Atlas progression?
Did they really make the fight this much harder?

The area may have different leels which is probably based on level of areas you do. The one I did on my first character was 68 as I only started maps when I entered. Your second one was probably much higher level. I have no idea what the formula is, though, as it has never been clarified by GGG.

The second one i did now was 83. I checked but i can't remember what the first one was.

That's probably the reason why this one was so much harder. I'll see what game support has to say. Doesn't look like we are getting any more answers here.

I am interested in hearing what people think about this fight. If it's too challenging or too easy.

Hi there,

Thank you for contacting Support.

Unfortunately we are unable to offer technical support currently, due to limited staff resources. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

We will be offering technical support again in February 2019

the area gets scaled (how it decides to, Im not exactly sure, but you clearly fought a lower level mastermind your first time).

83 is the max level, so it's an endgame fight

Hey is there any good reason to fight higher level syndicate members or mastermind?

The fight, that takes over 50 hours to even get into it shouldn't be hard as that. Especially that rewards are meh.

At least you should not loose all the progress when failed.. Other thing is that it resets the board and you have to start again

I decided not to do the fight again. I might not handle it this time at high level and loosing all the green relations and stuff does not seem worth it.
