Tanking toughest bosses
" Oh, that's a bummer :) We'll figure something out. @Fluttershypony I have 77 + 5 + 10 = 92% resistance without the -max mod of course, and Dominus in Palace still did damage equal to 60-90% of my life, and it's way too hard to dodge it, freaky stuff there. Armour is irrelevant, as there are no bosses except Vaal and his smash that requires high armour (maybe the Arbiter of Knowledge in Academy map, I've seen people get killed often in there), well, armour is shit anyway as there's the famous Immortall Call and Endurance Charges, except if you're AA user. Definitely not worth doing any tough boss if you're in a leveling process. Last edited by tinko92#6447 on Nov 30, 2013, 11:00:27 AM

" Does this guy actually do PHYSICAL damage???THanks alot for this info.I played him with vulnerability,extra as cold 25% - mx resists and barely surivived(soloing in 2 man party).I am afraid of this boss more than anyother cause i hadnt figure out his attack patterns,and what type of damage he actually does.My only tactic so far has been yolo attack him. BTW awasome videos,keep it up :D https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/417287 - Poutsos Flicker Nuke Shadow

" Yes, pure physical, during Immortal Call = zero damage, unless there is a map mod "extra damage as xyz". I personally think he's a joke, because he can't one shot even with every single phys damage boost mods (Vulnerability, % damage, unique does more damage and attacks faster, -max, attacks/moves faster). I'll try to roll/buy Academy with those mods, but I've done some similar with few of these mods, no problems, except where's "extra damage as xyz" then he penetrates Immortal Call, but my leech/regen covers it perfectly. Will list that map also. |

Got my hands on these boys.
Still looking for better Temple map, possibly with extra damage as lightning and more damage mods. Last edited by tinko92#6447 on Nov 30, 2013, 1:28:23 PM

" These 3 have been done successfully. Will upload over night. Looking for more tough bosses to do, hit me up if you have a nice suggestion. |
|
Added 4 new videos, 2 Crematoriums, Precint and a Temple.
|
|
Academy double boss, -max fight added.
|
|
New video of double boss Crematorium, this time I tanked both at the same time, no moving.
Looking forward to try the same with -max. |

I tried double crema -20% res,34%exxtra damage,vulnerability,cannot be stunned,simultanesously ,completely different of course,not tanking here,it is nuking :P.I still find the academy boss worse ;P.For armour users he is a cake,cause it is an attack,and they way i see it,it is just reduculously fast physical hits,that armour can mitigate effectively.Plus he can get all the plus mods,since it is an aattack(EG. added as-elementa damage- doesnt apply to piety,crematorium,dominus lightning ghosts,since they are spells).An academy with vulnerability,additional projectiles,% extras as lightning and THEN -res(otherwise this doesnt affect him),would be for my build 1000 times harder than crema boss
Oh,the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9DMUbqHlZY https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/417287 - Poutsos Flicker Nuke Shadow Last edited by Poutsos#0458 on Dec 6, 2013, 2:21:09 PM

Yes, tanking is completely different than just killing.
With 120k+ DPS they die in few sec, they don't even have time to cast more than few firestorms, just like in your video, flicker strike is insane, nice job. |
