Just met her on Standard league, Merciless with my fire witch, wich actually uses fire skills for relatively high area DPS and undead for tanking. She is equipped as follows:

She has 1170 ES and 805 HP. Main ranged AOE skill is Flameblast (1209 ind. DPS), close-up AOE is Incinerate with LMP (1688 ind. DPS), single-target skill being Fireball with LMP (2679 ind. DPS). In hard cases (like a group of hostile creatures with more HP than my Flameblast can one-shot) comes the Flammability curse. Clarity is on at all times.

Piety dies very quickly and is incapable of killing my totem in time to stop it casting the first pair of skeletons (that's all I need). BoneBringer from corrupted area beneath Catacombs is just burned to a crisp with Incinerate along his skeletons. Cole, which always gave me trouble, just dies. I didn't fight Dominus yet (although I suspect that will be 80+ deaths like it was 60+ with my Marauder).

When fighting the "rain maker" I've encountered a big problem: her Rain of Arrows kills me in 2 rapid shots (first kills the shield) and is impossible to avoid -- when she casts it, there's just no time to stop doing what I do and evade sufficient distance to get away from the AOE. Worse, she kills all the minions and the totem in just a couple of seconds, taking away my tanking capability -- usually with that RoA of hers. I've evaded her direct attack and Spearstorm (with a potion), but this rain is making everything complicated. So I died several times fighting her.

Is there any advice for me except "avoid encounter"?


When you play a glass cannon build, you are going all in that you are the glass cannoniest. If you encounter an opponent who can out cannon you, you'll die 100% of the time.

ggg devs and neon specifically are masochistic in relation to their playerbase.
i will not be participating any more in this league or this game Kappa


I dont agree with you cause from what i have seen Neon has been playing with people that in my eyes cheated, cheating that was allowed by GGG to avoid same rules that are put on others.

Examples are Freeze mine, BM snapshoting, playing with 2-3 summoners with 50 zombies in front of them and so on.

If anything i would call them sadist and not masochists since those rules didnt apply on them.

See, it is players like you with less than 2k hp in merciless that get awesome bosses like this nerfed. Shit makes me mad!

Btw, blinding her works, at least when she shoots projectiles; dunno about her rain
