FWIW, I’m having the most fun I’ve had ever in D4. I think a far second place would be S2 with the vampire shrines. Honestly, I may be having the most fun I’ve ever had outside the storyline in the original in Tristam and D2 and its’ expansion’s storyline. I unfortunately never got into the online world of these masterpieces like I have in D4.
The endgame system of tempering and masterworking, codex storage, helltides, & inventory management have improved the game so so much.
But I absolutely hate the one shot mechanics of the pit bosses in tier 80+. I also hated uber lillith in previous seasons for this same very reason. I have yet to beat her after a dozen or so attempts.
Currently I just went necro minion to shadowblight minion and I slap everything except one shot mechanics. I slap everything while running with no incense, elixirs, or Holy bolt. Just slap city. With fortify, barrier, & life all activated I have 80k+ life. Still get one shot because of mechanics.
I don’t mind a challenge. I beat Bloodborne Old Hunters and it’s one of my favorite games of all time. Also probably one of the hardest games of all time. But these mechanics… just feel cheap.

Ok, play a lower tier. At 61 you are able progress to 12/12. You dont need to push to 100 if you’re not having fun

A lot of people are having similar issues at lower tiers. It’s a horribly designed system meant to pad playtime statistics.

Considering it is now a staple to the game I’m sure they will do something.

I mean all they can really do is scale dmg and hp. They cant really introduce other mechanics ppl just complain.
As gear gets leveled your able to push more but as you push it does require some skill not to stand in fire. Ill likely get to 100 and stop.

i don’t get it , i don’t get one shot by lilith shadow until pit90 + but by this point you’re supposed to play the game and dodge no?
plus as a necro can’t you just run around and let the minion damage it while you dodge mech far away?
Sometimes, But the AI targets the player. What i do sometimes is stand right in the middle of my minions and let my golem be a meat shield. That does not always work depending on type of attack used. lol The AI is getting smarter in these games.
