Brutus The Hardest boss in the game

So i joined the Onslaught League with hopes high, and great exitement.
It was not as hard as i thought but stil pretty rugh time to time, however there was this dude called Brutus.
So why is Brutus the hardest boss in the game for me?
DESYNC.

I usually dont have that big of an issue with Desync but when it comes to Brutus, i feel helpless sometimes.
He teleports around in the room and i have no idea if im actually pulled by his hook or im still safe.

Often i suddently find myself standing next to him when i thougt i was safe beheind a wall.
This just cost my lvl 57 marauder his live on The Onslaught league. That surprised me a great bit since he was pure tank and took so little damge from everything els.

I really LOVE this game and i will sure be playing it for a very long time, but this is one of the few things that makes me a little sad.
Hope somthing can be done with Brutus, so you can feel more in control when figting him.
Thank you =)

Just remember, we all have to deal with it. And if you've been playing for as long as most of us have, you get used to it and it becomes rather predictable.

How can Desync be predictable :S
Sounds like you and me dont have the same experience with Brutus on Onslaught

Do not listen to him.

Desync can NEVER be predictable. He clearly doesnt play hardcore/onslaught or never played a class/build that experiences deync issues.

Its a fcking coin toss. I lost my latest ranger a couple of months ago due to desync:ed Kole (and I haven loaded the game since then) I feel with you.

Either you tolerate the fact that desynch does and will occur and keep losing characters now and then or you play some retarded broken build like dual sporkers which is pretty much fail safe.
Or simply quit playing the game until this issue is fixed - which could take a year or two regarding the things GGG managed to pull out of their hats so far.

Glad to hear im not the only one who has this problem with Brutus/Kole =)

Brutus has Attention Deficit Disorder :)

if you can keep him interested with toys like Decoy Totems or Zombies/Skeletons - you can then fire-trap/bear-trap him to death.

also if you are ranged, use the "shoot-shoot side-step" method. but you need to be quick at it.

BRUTUS the hardest boss LOL NO, the hardest is Piety the last boss in ACT 3 who kills me in two hits in cruel cause i'm only lvl 53 and I haven't gotten up to ACT 3 merciless wonder how hard that would be?

A ranged char would be able to whoop Brutuses ass quickly and without being hit so much. unless your a bad offensive person.

The game is not designed with onslaught in mind, so don't qq.
