Beyond bosses : One of the most annoying features this game has ever had

I honestly just find the INCREDIBLE HP Regen and Slow Mechanics very annoying. Annoying, nothing more. But i actually get frustrated when i am bashing away at a mob that does silly little damage but regens over my 1k dps at lvl 40.

I am aiming to do the kill monsters from beyond challenge, but is there really only 14 of them including the uniques or is there more monsters types in the pool that are not required for the challenge? I've already killed 6 different types and it is only act 2 normal, lack of variety will soon knock at the door if the monster pool is only 14 types.

In Invasion I was always on the lookout to fight new monsters with surprising skills, but here in Beyond they feel kind of blend, though I've only seen one unique this far, and it is a pain the ass to summon it. (4 blood drops from mobs = > 1 "mouth" portal and shitmobs to kill
4 mouth portals = > spawn an unique and more shitmobs).

The unique looked okay though I hope they are not all designed like bloody skinless silhouette, but fighting him was nothing special, just spamming him as fast as possible to compensate his life regen, and as said they don't drop anything useful.

I suppose the final beyond bosses are hard to kill, so far they are more persistent than difficult. At low level, the soulless watcher type with unholy fire and flame surge is pretty dangerous, but all the others are underwhelming: just life and life regen.

As it stands, Beyond was poorly implemented. If you have players avoiding many if not most mobs, then theres something majorly wrong.

I have to agree that beyond is the worst league by far. I even liked the invasion bosses when they were imbalanced more than the beyond mobs. Beyond mobs are just dull and take ages to kill for no reason.
To me, the beyond mechanic is not fun at all.
I don't even know how to rebalance it. I just don't like it.
Right now I'm lv50 at Act 3 Cruel, and I almost reaching my limit. Beyond is the most boring and frustrating HC league I've ever played. I don't even enjoy playing Beyond to be honest. The only reason I am still playing is 1) I haven't died yet, 2) I really want to see how the build I came up myself will work out.

The whole mechanic behind this league - Beyond portals, is something you never want to see. The loot these mobs drop are not better. They take ages to kill. It's really boring. This makes me kinda sad because I've never felt this way about PoE before.

Beyond mobs give nice experience, but the time required to kill them make the exp gain/time terrible. You are better off killing white mobs really fast. There is really no incentive to go through all the trouble to kill them.

The best way to deal with them is to have something that will grab their aggro (ex: Decoy Totem), and just try to get rid of them while you move to the next pact. It's really sad that it's the best way players can deal with them seems to be running away from them, instead of fighting them. The same thing can be said about Invasion bosses, but Beyond mobs spawn many times each instance, making them far more annoying than invasion bosses.

These Beyond spawned mobs either need to be nerfed or the drop rate drastically increased. There is no worth in taking the fights.
If those mobs don't change rapidly together with an official excuce from GGG that they did not take any Feedback from us regarding Invasion and Loot seriously then that would probably leave a deep wound of disappointment and resentment towards the game and the staff.

Up until now I was under the impression that they love the game and the community but right now after 15h of gameplay I feel like vomiting.
What i found frustrating riht now at lower levels of beyond. Is that the magic mobs from the portals are stronger than normally spawned uniques and give no reward. And the rares from portals are as strong as uniques or at least more tanky.
hi!
I made a pretty long post on this topic in here but thought i'd start another thread instead, please give it a read if you got time
