I'm fine with one-shot mechanics on a final boss, in my opinion the problem is that it is rather hard to dodge all his shit, then get a few hits in during the dps-window (when he uses his tentacles, if u stand behind him, u got a few dps seconds e.g), then dodge all his shit again and repeat... If you are very skilled u might actually be able to do it with crappy stats and gear, but hardly anybody is that skilled (guys like nugiyen, pohx, raizqt, etup or helman are, but well, i'm not, and most players are not, i guess). If Malachai did a littlebit less though (in terms of spawning/abilities) the fight would be totally fine imo, even with his current dmg output.

Same with act iv piety btw: just make her rotation a bit slower, when she uses her beam of death, so that u got a fair chance to avoid it, and i'm fine with getting oneshot otherwise.


Even those guys you mention said normal and cruel need to be toned down. And many people have beat Mala, including myself but when you factor in everything else there simply should not be a mechanic that 1 shot you in normal or cruel when you account for that amount of hp.

As far as the other bosses. The laser does hurt but if you stand far away it only hits you once you can tank it, if you rotate close to piety you can avoid completely. The organ part bosses are easy just bring the correct flask for the fight and it is fine. Even Mala is fine, all the other parts(minus the fact that cycloning the hearts are extremely hard to do).

I might have overreacted a bit to the 1 shot but I really dont see how that should be possible in normal or cruel with that much hp.
@vortex: it seems i haven't expressed myself as clearly as i tried to do, i'm on your side... i'm all for tuning down malachai a notch. We only disagree about HOW he should be toned down. You say: reduce the damage; i say: leave the damage, but give the player a better chance to avoid it. That's a minor difference after all.

Nobody even kills him now. Top players just kill the boss for others. I was on cruel Malachai, created a party and I got only 2 people in like 10-15 minutes. People just pay to avoid the unrewarding difficult boss
Hate to bring it to you. You messed up and thus you suck. It's true. Not our fault you posted it on the forums. What did you expect? Create a dating service for people who suck?
Yes Malachai is hard but, it's a great thing finally a good challenge and a fun fights with a lot of things to dodge. Sexiest boss fight I've seen in a game in a very long time.

no i lagged and died, and it doesnt matter. messing up doesnt make a game challenge because you screw up 1 time. There is a reason every other boss has mechanics u can tank or work around with proper gear why would this be different. But thanks for your pointless post, I also offered a suggestion which is why I came here anyways. The % idea would be great.

His fight is not challenging, the only thing that is difficult if the 1 shot and the rest is just takes time. Using 25 portals in a fight in most people's mind is not challenging nor much fun :(. But like I just posted to the other guy, I dont dislike the entire fight nor do I mind it. Just wanted to suggest maybe using a 50%, 80%, 120% for each act to punish people for making mistake yet allow for a mistake or 2 to happen when things like cast animations or lag happen
Well just an interesting fact that yesterday i helped out my friend on killing Malachai on NORMAL and it took me the same amount of time to kill him than Dominus in MERCILESS. I am a lvl70 mara with 15k dps 4,3k hp and he hit me for half my hp.
