Oni-Goroshi in Current League - are You gonna farm it or drop it?

I finally managed to come across Uber Hillock and OMFG what a cruel joke to play on low level characters. Of course I was on my weakest character, my Templar. Good shit, Charan!

Remember when I won a screenshot contest and made everyone butt-hurt? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Congrats! 85% is nice too. I always feel cheated when after the long grind to get UH to get a low 70% roll and not have a Regal orb this early in the league.

Always remember to stay in face-tank range of UH if you can. He won't leap slam except once at 10% health so you won't get mobbed to death by his horde of Awakened.

30 deaths and 15 mins I guess. He lept-slam even if I was close range circling him, those adds made the fight really hard :(

Ya I've been there, done that (see my very early posts in this thread). You weren't close enough to UH if he is leap slamming on you. I'm rng bad lucked with level 8.5 exiles still grinding for UH so I'll post when he finally decides to come out and play with me.

With the weapon range changes and the melee rework I was fooled to be in the max distance from a 2h club since I was with a Heavy Strike Marauder... But even if the max range was still like just 2 cells away from him was enough to get leap slam.

The awfull part is that I feel like I farmed for nothing... My TecSlam Chief is not even close to Cyclone or ED/Cont for league content. Every day I hate GGG a little more to fool us into "melee rework".

According to the video, 2 minutes for Duelist (Softcore, so I wasn't trying to be super-careful, but he didn't die).

Still yet to meet him with Scions and Marauder. Reached my first TwiStrand level 8 ever this week.
The Bother progress: 11%

You don't even imagine how much harm you've caused. I'm not sure I'll live long enough to finish "The Bother". You're one of my murderers. You will never get my forgiveness unless you make up for what you've done.

I have only done it once so far but it probably took at least 10 minutes to kill Uber Hillock on my level 7 Templar. I can see it taking much longer for some players and even making some quit the encounter.

Thanks! I was on a Templar at the time so I needed the extra zombies to help freeze Hillock. The more zombies, the easier it was to keep Hillock frozen.

Shamelessly bought mine doing my first Oni-Goroshi build, also wanting to double corrupt it at some point.

For my scions the fight was about twice as long as my marauder which was about 3-5 minutes. No deaths in any.

A couple minutes on a very well geared, very melee DPS Marauder.
Hillock hits hard, and is about as tanky as an Act boss.
