One-shot on Act 2 Colossus in 2000 es+hp and 75% all res. it's a terrible experience.

"
How can you even die to Colossus? Like, what are you even doing to die there? Like, are you playing on banana controller, or your monitor is switched off, or you are doing some other special-olympics-tier of challenge run, or something?


For fucks sake - just get in melee range, stand right in front of him, and kick his arm until he is dead. How can you beat Miller, but you cannot beat Colossus?


Pro tip for every campaign boss: Stand in melee range and turn on your monitor.


There's a bug with this one, with his cross-dagger attack that just deletes people. The act version AND the maps version (saw a video of him just deleting a guy with 18k ES on like a T9 map).

So it's a bug. No need to be a pretentious fucking asshole.

Don't play HC in EA.


I’m going to be a bit harsh here, so apologies, but this is the dumbest thing I’ve read on the forums today, and that’s saying something.

What is the purpose of EA? TO GET FEEDBACK ON THE GAME.

OP played the game the way he wants to play it when it comes out, so that he can provide feedback and hopefully make it a better game when it does come out.

He came here and gave his feedback.

And what do you tell him? Don’t play that way? How in the ever loving hell is GGG supposed to get feedback on hardcore if, according to you, no one is allowed to play it?

If you disagree with his feedback, that’s fine, give your opinion, but you didn’t give an opinion, I think you just forgot you weren’t on Reddit.




Can you step back from the keyboard a little, I can virtually taste the spit flecks.

If you read the rest of the post, the implied coda was "Don't play HC in EA... if you have any expectations of not dying to one shot hits, bugs or generally badly worked mechanics".

I even expressly stated: "There are very specific builds that might allow you to do HC 100, but they're a tiny minority and there's no skill involved."

PoE2 is not a balanced endgame experience and I challenge you to find fault in any of what I listed as issues.



You cannot, so you post a diatribe of nonsense. The Collusus bug has been reported since the 1st week of EA, you can find reports on it in the Bug Section of the forums.

If they’re not really that complicated why are we sitting on the forum complaining about it?

Just dodge next time. He is one of the slowest bosses in the game.


This is exactly what I'm talking about, that you won't be able to dodge everything. Where else can you expect a one-shot attack? And if you need to dodge everything, then maybe all attacks should be one-shot? That's why there are defense mechanics to allow the player to make a mistake. One-shot mechanics are wrong for both standard mode and even more so for hardcore mode. And what's more, these are normal acts. Also, you need to understand if this is a bug or not? For some players it takes 150hp, and for some players it takes 2000+ with this attack. And I repeat, this is only act 2 of the game.

its all about movement and skill and its fine, dont blame the game when you could improve


Yes, I like a measured game and improving the hero. Which is what I do. Having spent about 50 hours on one and a half acts. But where else can you expect a one-shot for a hero in top gear? Moreover, this may just be a bug and reasoning about the lack of skill may simply be wrong. Sometimes he takes off 100 hp with this attack, sometimes he just kills. I just want to figure it out.

Thank you, there is a discussion about the mechanics of oneshots or it is just an early access bug. Some just stand under the boss and heal all the hits with flasks. And sometimes he just kills with one hit, removing a huge amount of health and energy shield.

Press the dodge Button.

Please GGG dont nerf the bosses.

I don't want to play an ARPG with Winnie the Pooh difficulty.


This is not about that my friend. This is about the developers' idea itself. Is this really a one-shot mechanic in the game or just a bug. Of course, the game should not be made less difficult. People like me play in hardcore mode because of the challenge. Here I certainly agree with you.

Thank you for your support. Of course, even if it is early access, it still has a hardcore mode and it needs to be tested. I encountered an incomprehensible situation and I am simply giving feedback and a desire to figure out what it was.
I have additional problems with this fight. if you move near the edge of the boss area and the boss moves around of hits me with something my camera starts jumping around in a vertical line up and down really really fast off center. :/ it looks like a visual bug to me. its not a camera shake but jumps off center really fast up and down making it impossible to see clearly whats going on.
