Absolutely idiotic boss fights with 1 shot mechanics and stacking buffs, having to “move” away from certain areas in 0.5 sec. to avoid a 1 shot while the “boss” is in invulnerability mode… Devs, what the hell happened? This parody carries the “Diablo” title. you could have made a proper demon boss fight, where you create a tough to fight boss, give him a few very powerfull elemental/physical attacks extra each phase, making the unprepared players feel the impending doom of fighting that boss under geared/underprepared vs whiddleing that boss’s health in 2 seconds in the 5-10 second window of opportunity between his “invulnerability phases/1-shot stacking buff-move-here to avoid that” phase… Can you please have the lead gameplay design team do a playthrough of D2 all diff please, before any further iterations on this topic. They are not even boss fights - they’re environmental navigation puzzles with punishing mechanics that on 3 errors one shot you on the 4th. Remember the days of D2 where i’d literary prepare to fight Diablo on Hell diff. with extra extra healing potions in the inv. and prep with extra fire res gear etc., and you actually fought a boss vs environmental puzzles.
Just a heads up, you will hate any skill based game including D4, Elden Ring, PoE 1/2, WoW raids… maybe the sims would be a more fitting game for you OP, having fun is all that matters.
You also need to prepare in every game I listed up there… if you face check mechanics that’s all on you my dude, there’s a dodge button, use it
Tldr: I suck at games and it makes me mad post on the forums!
Ahh yes OP, because standing still spamming a skill over and over, weaving a pot in every so often, is totally not idiotic at all.
This really is the perfect time for a saying that I actually hate to use but…
sounds like a skill issue. git gud.
If you’re getting one shot it’s your fault not the devs fault. It’s not hard to stack enough defense in this game to just be able to facetank it all.
If you’re going all out damage in all your skills paragon and aspects you’re going to have a hard time.
Sounds like OP would poop in the key lime pie if he ever attempted hardcore and actually learn the basic game mechanics… poor little critter!
This way, players keep dying and re-attempting, increasing playtime. If a player voices their frustration about this inconvenience, the devs know Blizzard fanboys will come to defend it and shame those who struggle with one-shot mechanics.
yes, because anyone who actually uses their brain and realizes op has a skill issue, MUST be a blizzard fanboy.
logic.
The boss fights aren’t skill based, they are luckshot one hit kill mechanics.
Not at all you just need to learn the fights aka GETTING PREPARED!!! No offense but it sounds like you could use a mentor to teach how everything works… I’d be happy to help because this is baaad if it’s so hard and unfair… How do you kill uber lilith? I’ll tell you! Hit 120 move speed at least and go around in circles to evade the mechanics, simple as that… the rest is a dps check! See fixed it for you friendo!
I beat Bayle with npc summons at 4/4 or something by beating up his back left leg.
More helpful advice:
Do you have enough hp? Damage reduction? couple layers of protection? What are we working with here I’m in the dark?
No way mam they want gameplay like arpgs are fortnite amd LoL while being bad at it… let me face check that bush nothing wrong COULD EVER HAPPEN… full team jumps out of the bush with emotes… crossplay issues!
Baal… wrong forum my friend, this game has yet to see Mephisto
Unreadable grammar, and that’s saying something from a dyslexic.
I’m dishlexic too, I feel your pain sir!
Most of D4’s endgame bosses are wretchedly bad design, with Uber Lilith being the worst boss I’ve had the displeasure of fighting in ARPGs.
I love fighting her… sorry but that’s on you! Retired WoW raider here… I love the mechanics… you will probably never get what a raid wipe feels like
Oh, this has zero to do with skill. The fight is just an absolute abomination design-wise. If you want to bring that up, I’ve cleared every boss on the hardest difficulty in this game, Path of Exile, and Last Epoch. I also likely raided WoW at a far higher level than you ever have, which includes top 10 parses (as well as at least one rank 1), killing Heroic Lich King top 50 worldwide back in 2009, tanking in a US 33 guild during Legion, etc. Oh, and I did the Hardcore WoW level 1-60 challenge 100% solo on my first attempt on a class I’ve never really played before in Vanilla (Priest).
The fight’s just bad.
You are simply wrong, trial/error/get better/win eventually
100% about how much time you get prepared and grind to fight a PINNACLE BOSS!
sorry but that was an a$$ take buddy! Try harder
You clearly are a retail player lmfao!
Ah, so you have no actual rebuttal when you tried to call out somebody on “skill issue” when they’re exponentially better than you’ve ever been. If you’re so talented, go and beat all 7 uber bosses in Path of Exile, then report back to me.
I’m just telling you that if you can’t fight Lilith you were probably a crappy priest in a crappy guild, end of story
Suck it up!
