Act 4 Normal Sucks and Is Way Too Hard

I have thousands of hours of experience.

I totally got murdered by Piety in Act 4. It isn't even close to balanced.

If they want to introduce one shot mechanics that fill the screen, they should give us a taste earlier.

Literally snoozed my way through the entire game, get to Piety, DEAD.

Not fun, gonna take a break for awhile and "vote with my wallet"

If we all quit playing they will do something about it.

Apparently GGG won't really notice, given that they already have what looks to be at least $220 from you.

Given that it's been shown that, using actual SKILL, it's quite possible to readily beat them all, there's no need to do anything. And mostly, I only see a few rather-vocal people who AREN'T new to the game (and used to just using existing, overpowered cookie-cutter builds to faceroll anything while they don't even pay attention) who are just complaining.

This whine, I love reading it. But really, the only one's who are allowed to complain about the new bosses are summoner's. Anyone else can do the content w/o dying. That ppl with 1k dps and 1200+ hp and ress capped keeps complaining is amazing, especially if u play SC and if u actually get to die 20 times vs piety you should have already seen how easy that beam is to avoid and how little dmg the fireballs do. Same with Malachai, if u get to wipe 50 times u should definetely have noticed how the fight works, he sure is chaotic and you can't dodge everything. But you sure as hell can dodge EVERYTHING that would otherwise instagibb you, that includes the smash and the aoe throw which shouldnt one shot u but does alot of damage.

So unless you are a summoner stop complaining.

Preach!! I play Warbands and sick of the complaining 0 deaths vs Piety and Malachai and before the der Flame Totem or Cyclone......I was using Freezing Pulse

It's the final boss of the game for crying out loud, it's supposed to be a challenge. Only complaint I can partly agree with is Malachai's high amount of health, damage is fine. I seriously wonder though, how is it possible to die countless of times and still not learn the fights?

I did Malachai in Tempest league on my 1h/shield ice crash duelist with 1,6k hp, only lightning resist capped, quite poor single target dps. I refilled flasks once in phase one, in phase two I did not need to refill due to adds. It's all about learning the new fights, you can't face tank and expect to survive everything. Dominus was also hard when he was new, remember?

I sure hope they don't nerf anything. I love the new dangerous boss fights, it's such an adrenaline rush on hardcore. Reminds me of when Dominus was introduced, was scary fun. :)

there was some guy today on warbands league who kept getting killed by hillock in normal... could not get past him... lol...

Hillock is very much like malachai, after you defeat him the next zone is just a breeze.

Peace,

Piety's super sayan beam needs a bigger indicator.

C'mon, the A3 fight, she freaking screams before she casts storm call or transforms. Here you're attacking her and she starts spinning with little warning.
