I clear the pit in 2 - 4 minutes and get to the boss and I’m avoiding everything then suddenly I’m dead and I don’t even know what I get hit by…also why does every single ability almost one shot?
My build (fireball sorc) should be able to easily do it but…I’m even playing super defensively and avoiding everything as best as I can on the boss but still can’t kill them. This is a 98 pit btw…
anyone else experiencing this?
You are not the only one. I can only take about 3-4 hits from them, and I’m dead.
I haven’t experienced this yet, but my experience in this type of game tells me that the only reason you managed to reach the boss is because you killed the mobs before they had a chance to hit you.
So… basically… your damage resistance has always been low and the boss is the only one capable of holding out long enough to prove it to you.
You are a glasscanon fighting a tank.
I’m not saying it’s good… just that you’re fighting two very different types of fights with exactly the same build.
Usually: An anti-Boss build can’t hold up against mobs, and an anti-mob build can’t hold up against a boss.
No it’s that the boss puts a debuff on you. 3 debuffs and you’re dead. Look for the icon at the bottom right of your screen. Stupidest mechanic ever. It appears they are trying to force you to get your MW mats from hordes but T7 is very hard for a lot of builds/folks.
Oh, right, that’s also true.
That doesn’t make much sense… if it’s so difficult, wouldn’t Pit be easier then?
And if they were identical in difficulty, wouldn’t that mean it’s balanced?
It’s not just the one shots either. I easily one shot everything along the way get to the boss. But tthe boss I can unload with everything I got, every debuff, etc. and the bar barely moves. Then you stagger it and boom you can kill it. Not sure what they did but the game is all kinds of fubar this season.
it’s weird. i can blow through the mobs in a 126 in under 2 mins but when i hit the boss, i can’t even scratch it. in 8 mins, i got it down 5% until i got one shot. even a 101 can take a minute. boss life does not match the rest of the dungeon, that’s for sure.
Have you actually done any of this? or you just blowing air? Have you done a T7 horde? Cause right now there is real problem for the average gamer to get neathiron. #1 being the pit bosses and #2 being Tier7 in hordes.
Oh… didn’t I say this? sorry.
NO. I haven’t tried it yet.
Do they give an essential item or material, or just pit materials?
I know there are unique legendaries/mythics… but just that (I don’t need any for my build so I haven’t had to do any)
So I honestly don’t understand what the problem is (yet… i guess).
(Believe me, I’m just trying to understand, I’m not going with bad intentions.)
In any case it is a thread about the Pit.
Yes and I don’t mean to be disrespectful but you are not qualified to give an opinion if you haven’t tried it. It gives Masterworking materials which are essential to growing your character if that’s what you want to do altho it is definitely not necessary for any of the other game modes.
I see, good to know. I like this kind of stuff so now I want to try it 
.
Alternative activities are always worth trying. In the worst case you don’t have to do them and in the best you find a more fun way to enjoy the game.
The bosses are so out of whack they may as well remove the pit part and just spawn in a boss. You can fly through a Pit then get 1 shot by who-knows-what-it-was by the boss. The shadown bosses are just insult on injury, immue, don’t stagger etc.
