impressive that you could do it with a bow. things i took from it

1) turn off screen shake XD

2) it was very sketchy (i thought)

3) more move speed and elemental resists would benefit you a ton, maybe rebuilding in that direction would yield an archer than could farm atziri a lot more easily
Tried the Atziri map too today with my Frenzy/RoA Shadow (also with Evasion/Ondar's/Acro)
Well .... that double Vaal Oversoul fight is hard cause of those Lightning balls :/
THEY HURT D:
Finally managed to kill those two.
After that got to the trio. To be honest: They weren't so hard. Managed to kill the Cycloner (his Chaos trail after cycloning is lethal) and was slowly killing the Titty bitch of them.
Unfortunately died due to a dumb mistake from my side >.<
And cause I died 5 times to double Vaal Oversoul that was it for my attempt :C
Definitely gonna try the map at some other point (maybe after I leveld up a few times. Level 84 at the moment)
It's definitley doable as a bow build

Updated mate! ty
So did any melee single target character down here yet?

The irony being that they are mostly suited for boss challenges. Yet they are unable to do this one. (lel)

Edit : as to answer the question in your OP, melee CoC variant is impossible, because like i mention in this post, you have no AOE coverage to do the healing phase. Just like any other single target skill based character cannot do this.

Peace,

Dualstrike characters were one of the first to beat atziri.
You talking about the dual-strike build with melee splash linked and increased AOE?

You are clearly missing the point i am making.

Transferring a single target skill to an AOE variant makes it, pudum pum, an AOE skill.


Edit : just like every cyclone build so far had to replace Conc effect with IAOE for the healing phase, simply demonstrating you cannot do it on a single target bases.

Either a seperate single target dualstrike is used or melee splash replaces one gem during the minion phase.. It's turned into a fully single target skill against atziri.

Someone also claimed they did it with a heavystrike + groundslam maur build. No videos though.

Dual strike + melee splash = aoe skill

Ground slam = aoe skill

Are you missing the point here?

I am talking about a character that is SPECIALIZED in single target finesse. As in HAVING NO AOE and usually those are the builds that excel at boss fights.

And your arguments are "yah but they swapped a gem to make it AOE", oh my, i did not notice that. That totally trivializes my observation, i understand.

I have used my build for this example on some occasions.

Cyclone Coc EK, i can facetank atziri, but i cannot deal with the healing phase. Unless i
gem-swap a massive AOE nuke skill

(like flameblast, detonate dead, whatever that requires 0 investment but could function)

I can understand you don't see the irony in this, but i sure as hell can. A build designed to take on all the bosses in the game at a cost of slow clear speed can facetank the end-game boss, but not clear a phase designed to be AOE DPS check and not just DPS check.

Problem? This is just a design flaw, further increases the gap between single <-> aoe builds and ranged <-> melee builds. Nothing more.

(and yes i could do the healing phase with one of the options i listed, but i won't because i want to do it with "my build", not make some retarded swap to a mass aoe nuke caster for 5 seconds lmao and that's also besides my point i am making.)

@OP sorry for the derail, it was an honest question, just asking if any single target character has downed atziri yet, so far i know of none.

I just assumed you meant a character that uses a single target skill... Like frezy,heavystrike, puncture, dualstrike. Of course they have an alternative AoE skill for mass clearing, why wouldn't they? AoEs are best for clearing groups of enemies.

But sure, Atziri's minion phase is a plain DPS check.

I didn't see it mentioned in the OP so I might ad well post my build. I'm using Mjölner socketed with Arcs and lightning penetration. To trigger them I use Molten Strike and Cyclone in the video. Now I just use Molten Strike.
