This is complete garbage as one could kill them but then they cheat away and come back with one-shots. Harbinger e.g. complete sucks. Same as Andariel. That isn’t even a fun fight. Only supports building broken chars to match the stupid mechanics.
SO NOT FUN.

I also agree. I have yet to kill lillith because of her cheapness. It adds NOTHING to the game (for me, at least)… to have so many invulnerable and one shot phases… Im a barely casual, waited a year before buying expansion (sorry i did), stopped playing the 2 seasons after expansion came out, picked up again this season, and with summer here I doubt I will do much of anything in diablo 4 other than uninstall it. Not sure why some people love grinding for immaterial stuff that, when they die, they literally have nothing to show for it.
To each their own, I guess. I, for one, will NEVER ever ever ever ever give another cent to blizz. Just not worth it. I will continue to play early 2000 games like Supreme Commander FA, Battle for Middle-earth II : ROTWK, UT, Q3, even L4D2 got some loving in the last few years! Valve certainly knows how to keep games fresh… and there is ALWAYS plenty of full games on Team Fortress 2!
Finally… at what point will Diablo 4 actually start “Diablo’ing”? … asking for a friend

The fact that these fights are ostensibly bugged (or just more poor design) makes bad fights even worse. Fighting Duriel on T4 right now, the underground borrow phase (that one-shots me) can apparently occur while Duriel is still above ground? Like, if I do enough damage to him to trigger the phase but he’s busy going through some other animation, you’ll get the underground burrowing while he’s still on screen, above ground. At least code the fights so they’re logical (the boss can’t be both above and below ground simultaneously).

so not fun because the boss wont just dumbly sit there and let you 1 shot it?
Yes, 1 do hate dying to the boss fight. But Its also fun to learn the mechanics.

Everything one shots you tho.
I dono how much resistance & health you need to survive the andy phases honestly.
So it’s not really fun
Also there is no “mechanic”
Andy, harbringer, Duriel is all “Kill these 3 things and the boss comes back from phase”
Just that some AoE might happen during the phase that oneshot and kill you.
The idea of a glass cannon build is to kill something before it kills you… when bosses just ignore your damage, it’s not a fun fight.

Skill issue… just dodge the mechanic and stop expecting earthen bulwark to make you invincible

Alright, what mechanic am I missing here?

This is my average Lilith experience.
Mainly that’s not how you do that mechanic. you wait in the non-cut off area just before it turn red, then you enter the cut off area and go around the outer edge of it and you end up entering the non-cut off area just before the area gets cut off. Basically the top triangle you enter on the left side and do an arc around, then same with each side you enter at the top. One key in that phase is to always be running in the same direction, back tracking gets you killed.

Good question - why bother?
And for most regular players it won’t get to that point.
For example, Lilith starts spamming one-shot attacks until she kills me at the first mark, and a couple of times she killed me without doing anything at all.

Mate, you obviously over simplified a lot of things.
Andariel - what kills me most is the burst rotating red beam, others I can tank.
Harbringer - this is actually fun with the pickup and shoot , just like the citadel
Duriel - just poison proof yourself, hes ezy.
Harbinger, as annoying as those Off screen 1 shot dark snipe bullet shards ARE, I’ll take them over fighting Andariel ANYDAY.

I saw you got ragdolls by Lilith wings, its a physical & emotional damage.
”Dodge the one shooting thing, While the boss is immune so you can’t just end the tedium early” is not a fun mechanic
Duriel/Harbringer & Lillith (Phase 2) is fine tbh, Since such a wide area to move.
Andy is just dumb
I agree Andariel is the hardest.
It should just have 1 rotating beam…not 2. You have nowhere to evade when they both come at you from opposite direction.

everyone continues to play Diablo 4 because of nostalgia and to revisit themselves once in elementary school, middle school, and college spending wonderful time either solo or with friends in this lore before.
it is a comfort to their souls, not because of the devs’ content.

I can Agree.
Just cause you don’t see why doesn’t mean other people feel the same way you do. Everyone is different from 1 another.

besides rogue build that becoming immortal this season that could face-tank Andariel, for sorc i just teleport to the very last 5% or 10% of the ‘white floor’ that haven’t telegraph by 1-shot mechanics.
so, really curious how others doing it. LOL.
As a barb myself, with enough HP and fortify you can actually tank most except the red thick rotating lazer (the other glowing beam with totem is fine). When it burst it kill me instantly.
So I only have to avoid that. Its pretty doable.
