The best answer must be this for the topic )

Same here, lost 6 portals, seems overtuned to me.
Even trying to kill the copies and make the encounter "as intended" just does not work. Seems that you either do less damage and deal with the clones one by one or one shot him.

Died 2 times but bleed killed twinned bosses with Maven. Degen is active even after bosses are downed.

Map looks nice and stuff but come on GGG do not overdo this "we have to come up with new ways to kill exiles every patch"

Thats the new Mapbosses in a nutshell,
can't wait for POE2 to have every single Mapboss feature 20%hp/sec Degen, Bullet Hell, Desync 7k HP Oneshot Bubbles and imunity phases.

Must be funny in HC

He does huge AoE like rune blasts almost that are very easily obscured by the pews in his dilapidated little chapel there. the best part about it is that the pews are not easy to move around and so initially the fight can feel completely overwhelming. I've only killed him like 4-5 times but I recall some hand gestures, some red swirlies, some audio queues. He is pretty tough but by no means unkillable.

Damn I am glad I haven't run this map yet. I guess its best to run it right after lvling up or at 0% on exp bar however it gets there. From the majority of comments this boss seems a bit overtuned. At least that's the morale of this story I see. GGG could you at least look into this? These new bosses shouldn't be more dangerous than Sirus when hit for real :D

Same. Lose 6 portal.
GGG, you serious? Nobody just dont test this map at all, right?

I just had this sunshine on tier 12 with my lvl94 max block, 90% phys. reduction gladiator.
I wasted all of my portals.
If this is a preview of POE2, this won't be my game.
Difficulty ... yes
Impossibility ... no

just my two cents

That's normal, with gladiator none of your main defenses function vs this boss, which renders your char completely useless in this fight.
High regen and flat phys reduction do, altogether with soul of arakaali/ralakesh pantheons.

Call it great design or whatnot.
