Zekvir ? ? Overtuned Sadism

See I am expecting “skilled” here explaining how you should down Zekvir ?? with 540 ilvl on 3rd attempt, watch.

You’re 630, not 540.

Your brann lvl is fine, he’s useless outside of the potion healing…

A bit more gear should help ease things a bit. Take advantage of the crest drop buff coming tomorrow :dracthyr_tea:

I will give him couple tries. I have better geared Arcane mage, maybe on that one, Will see. The rewards you get from him are not even so cool

Well you’ll get a feat of strength I think it is? and the void color for the mount is neat imo… But yeah, don’t forget to talent into the slow cleanse to immune all the dots.

Is your Brann set to healer?? Lol upon entering combat he chunks 3 potions near you whether you need them or not

Yea He was never anything else except healer. I will give it a shot with these advices from folks in this post

  1. turn pets taunt off
  2. stand next to the potions
  3. soon as you take a melee hit, eat all 3 potions
  4. whenever possible, be in melee range of Zekky. Makes dodging mechanics so much easier

Yea I just love the RNG when I’m running on one side and bran throws the potions somewhere in Howling Fjord. Or zekvir summons the add and its LoS

Brann has a range limit on where he can throw things, much like Zekvir’s limit on the egg placement. You can also position the boss to account for either of those things.

Honestly its bad design. Doable for sure but really bad design. For the rewards it gives it’s not worth the time. I’m not a streamer that I have to impress someone. When bran drops potion they should stay for a minute

Yeah I can’t remember if it was end of patch or expansion but the black harvest title was limited. I just remember needing to use almost my entire kit to overcome the fight from fear, to gates, portals, mortal coil etc. I think it felt more like a pvp fight than it did a pve fight which was what made it so difficult for me at the time.

This is why you always keep the boss in the middle.

To add to this, you have time to bait the frontal before running over to the egg. Bait, then move towards egg.

It is simple 100% bad design of a fight.

It’s entirely contingent upon several layers of RNG. I did about 200 attempts on one day, then I 1 shot it the next day and it wasn’t even close. I didn’t get better gear, there were no patches/updates. I just had better RNG.

The eggs spawned in good spots, spell timings lined up better, Brann actually did something useful for once.

It was in no way difficult. I just walked in and killed the guy and it was over.

It’s true you can just slam your head into the wall 500 times and hope the stars align and kill it. Or you can do the mechanics correctly and kill it much faster

Brann is always just as useful? Throws potions down on ground. Relying on his dps for anything is just asking to fail.
