Kill Burtok Challenge
|
I'm playing totems (no bleed whatsoever) and here are some tips:
1) Equip shackles of the wretched. Link temp chains with increased duration and PUNCTURE 2) Use a bow to apply the puncture (weapon switch) 3) Have a skill to cull him when he drops to 10% health Casting temp chains on the boss will have it on him AND you, extending the bleed duration on him and the bone roil on you. This gives some breathing room to DPS. Puncture with increased duration gives 12+ seconds of bleed on him without temp chains. Getting too many stacks of bone roil will kill most characters quickly. He summons minions periodically to make the whole process even more annoying. I think this challenge is not worth the time and effort especially since it's only 1/4th of a challenge.

I made that challenge solo, by swapping to a 5L Silverbranch I found looting, putting a Puncture skill in it. At that point, it was
- Wait for the wall to be there - Wait for the Roil to start - LW out of the cage - Shoot puncture - Cast that culling Orb of Storm ASAP and pray for the best Finally managed after my 6th attempt. Southbound trick works as long you are NOT a DoT build, which I was. Agreed with OP. So far I've seen a lot of gizmo boss killing mechanics, but everything was at least possible. Even the "kill Aulin while both you and him are under Immortal Call effect". Tricky, ok, but that was the point. Not impossible. But here? Spells have only recently been able to even inflict Impale with Replica Heartbreaker. So far we don't have bloody spells that inflicts bleeding. I get it they have to promote the new bleeding Deadeye builds, but come on. |

any summoner managed to complete this?
I'm playing elemantalist carrion golem. here's what i did so far: >Removed carrion golems to avoid insta killing burtok >summon 9 zombies only for damage >link cycolne with chance to bleed support failed 5x already. only have one map left T_T can i just ask someone who has bleed build to do it while we are in party? |

" I'm playing summoner too. Necro CG. I just swapped out my melee phys, brutality and multistrike support on my carrion golems and added chance to bleed support. Ran the map white (T14). Took me like 4 tries. My DPS is really high. Maybe you only need to swap out 2 damage supports. Just try it with 2 and watch how fast the boss dies. If he dies too fast, swap out one more, try again. Simple as that. |

" wow thanks for recommeding puncture. i did even used bow just CIP. I did it on 2nd try. thanks a lot. |

Hey! Got bow with puncture but it looks like it doesn't work (no idea why :/) - no matter what I do it doesn't seem to inflict bleeding. Anyone had the same problem?

" In order to inflict bleeding, the arrow needs to actually hit and damage Burtok. If you are a mage, your Accuracy should be low enough to not ensure you will hit Burtok with just 1 arrow. Either use a Lioneye's bow - or anything else with Hits can't be Evaded -, or keep shooting until you can see the blood effect. I suggest to keep shooting punctures at it when on culling range (provided your physDamage with attacks is already low enough) until the bone cage pops up. After 1 second, the Roil should come - teleport out of the cage and cull the mothershagger. |

Another option: cast Vulnerability on him and hit him a few times. Works even if you are not a melee build.
