i was stuck in a fight with the guy for more than 30 mins… it wasnt a dps issue, it wasnt a skill issue, the mechanic is broken. it was just impossible i could only do a hard stun once a min and he was doing 3 heals a minute.

Smooth group run only to wipe to this boss who has 1.7m health and decimates our party. This boss needs a nerf, hard. Wasted 30-45 minutes due to this overtuned boss.

Bugged for me too - wasted an hour!

Yup… same here. Destroyed the entire layer and couldn’t finish the boss even with destroying orbs (which seemed to do nothing).

Why can’t we get a response on this? At least take it out of the rotation until you fix the bug. This is wasting a lot of people’s time, and making it a toss up on if they can get their soul ash for the week.

Do the developers even read these forums?
QA does, and they forward valid bug reports to the developers’ issue tracking system. I’m pretty sure the devs are aware. It’s just that this may be a tough one to address.
Havn’t seen this boss again yet, really hoping there’s not too many other nasty things like this awaiting us after reset…
Got this boss on my layer 8 run. 5 man group. First of all this guy had 4.1 MILLION health. We were all at 185+ ilvl. We used the potion/timewarp and we rotated stuns/cc best we could, killed orbs as fast as we could, pulled an average of 4-7k dps, but he had a semi-permanent absorb shield on him. Best we got him down to was 60% before his AoE killed us all.
Spent an hour with only 2 deaths until we hit this massively OVERTUNED solid steel wall of an end boss. This layer was a slog enough on its own, but not overly hard. There was no way we should have had that much trouble with the end boss as we did.
Total joke!!! We just had him in solid 5 man group everyone 190+ level 5 and he was totally impossible to kill after an HOUR run through the entire dungeon. This doesn’t need nerf it needs to be fixed ASAP as its totally broken.
I’ve found that his drain/shield target is you AND the orbs. As a warlock, I was able to LOS his ability and kill the orbs if I immediately switched to them, preventing him from shielding.
Unfortunately, he literally spams his ability, so all of my DPS was from dots. I had a tanky voidwalker from anima powers and got him to 27 stacks of enrage. He eventually just blew through Grimgron and tore my face off. What an annoying nightmare. Wasted a couple hours climbing the tower and then another half hour losing all my lives to this nonsense.
Just had him as my layer 8 boss. I was unsuccessful . I can say after playing this game from day one, that I’ve never been this upset over anything in game. Having a failed Torghast run after being in it for an hour feels awful.

190 arms warrior. Interrupt the drain, still drains, then melees me for 50% of my hp. Not a fan of the Empowered Imperial Consular either.
I feel like the upper reaches didn’t get nerfed as much. I know the place has more melee damage, but my CDs were not resetting between floors and the end floor bosses had obnoxious amounts of HP. The ventyr one hit really hard, I was mostly healing myself.
The one reason I beat this boss on layer 8 was I had double of the anima power that heals on new enemies hit. The orbs count, so every cast I could full heal. The other area this week was extremely easy, upper reaches felt like tuning wasn’t implemented.
he is still broken and 100% unkillable. dont matter what you do he will always gain his shield and destroy you. if people think he is bad in some random layer wait until you get him in layer 8 floor 18 of twisted corridors when he has over 10 million hp and gains unstoppable shields for over millions of dmg aborbs and then kills you within a 1/10 of a second during his mass devourer. you will have a better chance on soloing mythic denatrius then you would killing him… FACTS.
i was unlucky enough to get this boss 2 times now and the 1st time i tried with 12 deaths and that was on a 6 and couldnt even get him to 60%. i got him again just now on a 8 and as soon as my little head popped up over the stairs and i seen that it was him i turn around clicked the door and exited torghast.
not a nice feeling seeing this bugged pos at the top of the stairs after obliterating the 1st 17 floors in just under 4 hours… 4 HOURS!!

Ran into this sh** show of a boss on floor 12 and felt like I wasted 2 hours of my life, it was enough for me to Unsub and I’ll wait a few months before i come back, there are plenty of other MMO’s in the pool that actually test and respect their players, combine this kind of stuff with the incredibly low loot drops and you have a game that gives you impossible challenges without a payoff, and I’m done with that, not worth the blood pressure increase.
