Be careful when entering the boss room- Cemetery map

i totally agree. But imagine if there is no corridor as someone from closed beta have experienced.

I can confirm this. I JUST did a map last night on Cemetery, and the mobs were right next to the door on the second/boss level. Skeletons turned and started firing multi projectile bolts everywhere. Had to spam all pots and run in circles for a little bit. Was dicey but was able to clear the room and the boss, I just didn't expect them to be right on top of me. Unexpected, but fun and challenging.

Would you say this if your character just died at it on HC mode?

Now swap the LMP skeletons you got for 5 blue rhoas and guard chargers + one rare big monkey giving frenzy charges.

He actually loaded up the part with the boss and passed through the corridor to the doors leading to brutus. And then he got pulled into the pack of blues which are always there, and died.

That is not game design flaw, it is players' play flaw.

i got pulled in while i was in the corridor mate, shit happens, it was good fun, no such thing as flaw when you are having fun noob

As I play hardcore, yes. I will shrug, tell myself to have more defensives to survive the initial onslaught, and keep going.

I also don't play like 99% of other HC players and overlevel myself like crazy. I started maps at 63 and am now 67, running solo as an EK witch. I'll blame myself for that and reroll.

I will also know that as there are charging rhoas and other dangerous mobs around in the previous zone, that death is far more likely and able to come in an instant. If I die, welp. I died. Welcome to HC. Reroll and do it again.

Looks like being a Diamond supporter does not prevent your from being a dick forum poster...

VenatorPoE is about as far from a noob as one can get and one of the most helpful people on these forums.

I know who I would rather have on my forums, and it wouldn't be some dickhead with too much money and too few manners.

Pot, kettle?

How is what happened related to defenses or skill? I didnt realize the game is about going in a room having to take multiple hits by enraged mobs. No time to enfeeble, no time and space for running, no time for nothing really. Less than a split second and you are dead. And i am not talking about a room that you see the mobs and intentionally enter knowing that you will survive. If you see a room full of monkey are you gonna enter? I will and i will start killing them. If you see a room full of blue rhoas ready to charge are you gonna enter? Now imagine you dont know that the rhoas are there and add some small monkeys and a big bad monkey as well.

They were right at the door meeting you in 0.5secs what part of that you dont get...

Plus in no game like this you should be considered skillful for being so fast at getting out of the room or pressing 1-5

You might be happy to lose a Hardcore character to poorly thought out game mechanics that could be trivially fixed, but I suspect you are in a rather small minority.
