I’m in act 4 nightmare as a fire sorc and have run into the problem where my fire spells cannot hurt doom knights at all, doesn’t matter how long I try. I have to switch to a new weapon to frost orb then slowly to death. I encountered this earlier in the game with some special units that were fire enchanted but as it is now it has made my character unplayable here, there’s no way I can beat Lord de Seis. Anyone else experienced this?
Starting in nightmare some monster are immune to specific damage, (fire, cold, magic, physical etc). You have to use another type of damage.
What you should do is just skip the monster if you can’t kill them. If you have to kill them let your mercenary do it.
So no bug here.
Yeah it’s an awful Mechanic in this game. You build a character up that’s high in level and a specific build for it to be reduced to 0% effectiveness on a certain difficulty. I can see if it was a very high resist to elements but 100%? No ty.
It’s not an awful mechanic at all, it’s called Nightmare because it’s challenging. But honestly, the root of the problem is that you’re playing mostly solo, because Resurrected has the multiplayer component basically removed on console. If they ever fix it, you’ll always be with 3+ other players, who have different speced characters than yours, and as a team you’ll be able to steamroll those enemies cooperatively. Plus, we’re all a very helpful non toxic community, we can and will give you items beyond your wildest dreams, for free. Give it a chance, it’s honestly one of the best games and communities you’ll ever find once you figure stuff out and find people to play with. Trust me!
You are not supposed to be able to kill everything, kill what you can and leave the rest.
Hmm I had totally forgotten that mechanic, for some reason I thought that it was just very high resists, not total immunity. It sucks playing on console right now, haven’t been able to find a game with another person yet… don’t know what’s up with that. I played this game soooo much as a kid back when Zod/Eth were a thing and all the other bugged gear… so it’s been awhile.
