How is it that people are queueing for level 8 Twisting Corridors in Torghast, when I can’t even get past level 1? Even when I’m in a group, I can only get about two thirds of the way through it before all the powers I collected suddenly don’t do jack squat and the enemies start chopping off like 90% of my health with every hit. The only way I’ve been able to complete the quest involved with it is by going back and doing the first third of it all over again; which means giving up all the powers I gained before. To think I used to wonder why people hated Torghast.

Gear. You have 157 ilvl, that is very low when the highest possible is 228. And all the things typically associated with gear like increased hp (also from renown which yours is low), more damage, and more skill at the class.

I soloed layer 8 at about 181 ilvl when it first came out. Only pick anima powers that are good against bosses, and try to get more health.

The power choices you make in Twisting Corridors become very important at the later floors.
You should almost always be taking powers that increase your health over everything else.

Do it as prot or holy. I soloed the first 4 layers of TC as holy, and then finished off the rest with my prot paladin friend. It was actually a lot of fun. We were about 200 ilvl at the time, so gear definitely plays a factor.

It also mattereth what class thou thither goest with.
Warlock, in example, Demonology in particular, hath a potent selection of powers that maketh the class nigh indomitable so long as thou’rt not by a trap felled.

I did my first 8’s around 170 ilvl on a warrior. 157 is pretty low… but you most certainly should be able work your way up now.
Try prot. It’s pretty powerful in there and should up your odds. Or even holy, but found that harder.

Well, actually, I haven’t tried it on this character yet. I’ve got 6 alts and I’ve been doing it on them first, after gearing them up to at least 170, since I’m also trying to get them through the raid.
Ah, I figured I’d just send it with that feedback since it wasn’t clear if you did it on another character 
hopefully some of the other feedback in this thread helps though!
If you are needing easy gear, work on your cov, it rewards a set of 197 gear
Prioritize choosing Obleron Endurance unless the other choices are extremely good (btw just because it says Epic doesn’t make it actually good).
Also your profile shows ilvl 157 gear, if that’s the character you’re using then you need better gear - you can get up to ilvl 197 on day one hitting level 60 just by farming honor points, so 157 is crazy low to be trying anything other than compiling catch up gear
very important. one run i had over 300k base HP
a second run i was at the edge of my seat with under 100k hp and mob big hits would hit for about as much. had to burst them down and hope they die before it landed.
the boss ended up being a poke and run fight, timing CC and defensive CDs to get a few large hits in.
hp is very necessary. Verse bonuses help too. just RNG sometimes if you get them or not

Yeah I agree with the others. Covenant set and maybe a few of the WQ/rare boss trinkets would help.
At 197 with the right choices in anima abilities should be gucci.
I remember my clear of it 
pet kept on getting one shot even through the misdirection damage reduction. My lil clefthoof died but we pulled through in the end.
Lowest I completed TC 8 was 200 item level.
It honestly is just figuring out which Anima Power build is broken and stack it.
2350% More damage Death Strike? One shot everything ez.
Die by the Sword has 100% uptime? Physical damage begone.
Also build Health. Glass cannon is a meme.
Great minds think alike! You’re one of my favorites, Sunzsu!

Demo locks, Demon Hunters, and Shamans get to do some seriously fun OP stuff in Torghast lol.
I suddenly want to play a warlock for that now
