Well you’ve been awfully lucky then. I’ve filled my meter at least 10 times and not seen him even once
here’s another one, same helltide session

OK I smell a hotfix. I’m thinking this was their intention and that’s why the bar fills up so fast. I just filled it up twice and he spawned both times. I started this morning when the patch went live and the same old boss was spawning then. This certainly makes it more worthwhile altho as I posted in another thread: I’m not seeing the 20% damage buff at all when I use a Gideon’s. Maybe they will hotfix that as well.
Edit: yup working like clockwork now

Not too useful to be honest, as most players already get enough mythics and uniques at this stage of season. They should buff GA drop rate from the HT chest.
Agree. BTW This is not consistent. Just had 2 of these and they were the normal boss so it doesn’t work all the time. Gonna reboot the game and see if that makes any difference.
Edit:
Feels like they turned it back off. He is not spawning in HT for me
I stand by the suggestion someone made about there being a variety of chest types beyond gear, including obducite. Even if they gave a lot less than hordes/NMD as balance, it’d still be more incentive than getting a bunch of useless 750s to salvage endlessly.
feels kinda like d3 loot atm. you can find 1,000 of the same thing but like 3 of them are keepers. anyhoo, despite the low drop rate for GA’s with aspects, I have found more snowflakes tonight than prob the last week combined.
Helltide was Always bad and boring wtf 
Mindcage should be part of base game.

Hear ya. Just wish more of them were useful. + to a resistance or health in 5 minutes take a valuable aspect slot. It really is hard to get any upgrades with this kind of system. They are just not giving away a damn thing.

Density is pretty good with the extra Christmas monsters and stuff, but ya mindcage should be in there somewhere/somehow
You cant use mind cage as monster lvl is same for all content outside of Pit. They have to re-program the heltide if they let you increase the monster lvl there. Even it happens, as the monster lvl is hidden, so many will complaint the mind cage not working after activation. It is best for Blizzard to save the trouble not to re-introduce this mechanic. Without mind cage the cinders already can open all the chest if you AFK your character at maiden spot for 30minutes.
I still get no upgrade after roaming entire heltide open all chest. Will stick with hordes, at least I don’t need to move. Just AFK and chill at one corner.
I found a max aspect roll for sorceror on my necromancer doing a hellmaiden sweep today, opened a Glove chest and it spat out a 1ga ring. I thought that was odd, so looked at it when salvaging and the icon for the upgrade was on it but was for an elemental something-or-rather and sorceror only. Oh well 
Did the even announce in the patch notes that cinder drops would become this large?
I think they broke helltide for now. Enjoy it while u can its completely bonkers.
Too bad they didn’t do this with Aether
Got 5900 in 4 Maiden runs
Look on the bright side you have a %12 interdiction. Mine is still %10 after 200 hours.
Yeah but I already had 13% so still no upgrade lol

I was just being sarcastic

I already lost my hope for the season and losing it for the future of the game. Just trying to reach p300. Which I’m not even half way yet.
