The mechanics of 'Torvian, Hand of the Saviour' are absolutely insane!
Dear Devs,
Some of Torvian’s mechanics feel broken from a balance perspective. Several of his attacks are literally unavoidable, and they chain so quickly that there’s no realistic way to escape. As a result, progression feels blocked — I’m effectively stuck at this point, which is extremely frustrating. I understand the value of extra resistance or clever boss mechanics, but this goes beyond challenging design and turns into an unfair experience. Additionally, I’ve noticed that since the last update, both mana and health regeneration have become painfully slow across the board. If this was intentional, it might need reconsideration, as it makes the overall gameplay much less enjoyable. Please take another look at this — the fight and resource mechanics currently feel overtuned Last bumped on Sep 9, 2025, 4:58:57 PM

You really need to look around and figure it out how to do the boss.
Ngl, i did this boss in 3 characters, had problem only on the first one and i said almost the same thing as you after i died but after i learned his mechs he was basically a trash mob that jumps. |

Hes pretty easy when you realize he gets 3 gigabuffs from the casters on the platforms.
You can disable each buff by making him throw the rock that he spams into the platform theyre standing on. |

" I think they're making flasks and charms more important. Use a few passive points to spec into mana flasks or skill efficiency, and you'll be fine. I actually thought the Act 3 viper boss was a lot harder than this guy. I beat him first try, no deaths. She killed me several times and I finally broke down and watched a video about the fight. Hint: don't waste your mana on him while he has the immunity buff. Make him attack the priest giving him that buff. SSF Rise of the Abyssal Ice Strike Invoker, high survivability and fast clear speed. Deprioritize armor and resistances; prioritize crafting a weapon and faster start of ES recharge. Build is shown at level 47, end of Act 3. It tore through Act 3 like butter.
