Simulacrum for Minion users in 0.2 is Hell on 200+ div even

It was bad in 0.1 but in 0.2 is far worse.

And its extra bad on minions now because they cant survive any boss attacks that aoe after the nerfs.

In 0.1 it was impossible to do 4th tier as minions on a 200-300 div geared character.

In 0.2 You struggle in Tier 1 with minions because 1 cleave from miniboss nearly kills all of them... Also on a 200 div character....

Ghazzy made a video about it in general yesterday i think. Not specifically about Simulacrum but its same problem everywhere.

And minions are full defense specialised already. There is not much more i can take.

How do you expect us to do this ?

Is it only made for 1-2 builds in the game ?

It's not doable on dot lich either. I cleared everything else but simulacrum. And I ain't farming another 300 splinters to get ganged on a tiny 3sqm bathroom stall at stage 11. My anoint is anointed already.

Yes I think some parts of the game are only possible with certain builds and only on certain character. It aligns with the whole grind for 100 hours to get 13% chance gamble to not have your entire stash deleted type of game.

"Endgame Changes
Pinnacle Bosses now have unlimited respawn attempts at Difficulty 0."

I just got kicked back to hideout after reviving 6 times in simulacrum difficulty 0. Is simulacrum not one of the pinnacle bosses?

Also, the check points for simulacrum needs to change too so we don't revive in packs of monsters and instantly die again.

The difficulty needs to be toned down as well. I was able to win difficulty 4 breach & king in the mist with ease but couldn't even pass wave 12 of difficulty 0 simulacrum. (I'm a well geared summoner lich)

This!

Stuff like this is what really makes people quit the game.

Not being able to do endgame even in best gear for whole archetype no matter the build is the most game breaking issue you can have in a game.

Its basically saying you can only play endgame if you play meta class.

And mind you I did T4 every other boss but cant do first tier of simulacrum.

And i did had the same issues I had in simulacrum in other bosses (esp T4) where my minions where wiped out by aoe attacks and i had to kite so fights where 10x longer than they had to be.

But at least it was doable.

I bet it's horrible even for the meta classes. You need to be LS deadeye/huntress with BiS gear AND good rng to clear this.

At least its doable lol :P

I dont even get a sliver of chance no matter what i invest or gear up.

All i can do is just quit the game and wait for fix.

And sadly its what I will do.

Thankfully LE S2 is out today, will wait till they fix this as it made me quit last season 2 and it was not even as bad back then .
