Sirus fight is making me quit POE
|
The fight seems ok to me until the last phase, which is complete bullshit. The time the boss is actually on the screen is lower than the time he tries to laser you offscreen. Despite from constantly teleporting out of range/offscreen, he also becomes untargetable when he splits up for the multibeam. This constant jumping really reduces the last phase to pure frustration.

Sirus fight is the greatest garbage in this game.
and the game gets more and more content that is zero fun and only frustrating. I am always happy when I read such comments as the players finally wake up and tell their opinion. it is time that these ........ people get kicked in the *****. |

" What I do is triggering the event with Zana, then going in/out the portals 6 times in a row, best saving of time. |

" Yeah however i lost three times already... this fight has just some funky clunks like you mentioned: - Apparition/throne blocking view - DIE audio queue often just not there, because another sound effect (apparition) is going on - Offscreen beam as you return to the fight after you die - Random teleports due his skills. I do not mind in ggames that bosses grab you and throw you somewhere, as long as the screen follows in one smooth motion... but here you get flashed instantly, which is just unnatural. (Not that I mind this much though.) Last edited by Wieze#2062 on Mar 31, 2020, 7:44:39 AM

i just failed sirius 4 for the second time, i'm corrupted blood immune, 90% phys reduction, 6k hp jugger, about 800k shaper dps. I don't even want to come back now, how would i ever do this fight as my favorite flicker builds? I use to be able to do shaper or at least elder's with flicker builds, how does anyone do sirius without some summoner build where they can just dodge shit the whole time instead of having to try to dps him. I started playing when like essence league? i skipped last couple leagues, find out the atlas changed and there is this new fight, and this new fight is the most god awful soul crushing shit. I can't even buy fragments to try it over again i have to farm the conquerers, i'm just devastated. It feels like all the time i put into the league, trying to make a tankier character than i ever usually do and still just getting one shot murdered., this is insane, no zana i'm not sane anymore i've lost it.

@Irra_set
Just forget about that boss, it is bad game design implemented even worse. It's a waste of time, I honestly just want an option to skip that fight. The problem is that this missdesigned boss is the final encounter in the game, yes if you don't care about it you could simply buy the kill from some streamer. But that is not how the game should be played. Metamorph was a great league, delirium is a great league as well but it will be the second league in a row that I don't care about any more just because it is not motivating to progress through the watchstone and conqueror thing just for a boss that is worse than the uber elder fight in absolutely every regard. |

... he beamed me again.
his last phase is a feverish nightmare. lost 6 portals in a row again and his health bar was still at 95%. got 2 mega lags right before the death message. 7000 ehp, chaos res capped, level 95, mediocre 10 ex build, strong minions, they hit hard and never die during the fight. maybe it needs the cluster jewel vodoo and more experience with the fight in general. in the last phase i have no idea where he is, not at all. just running around in a dark mess hoping my zombies might detect something. and then the beam strikes and good bye. but hey, it´s okay. the game is stronger than me. i would need 50 portals to beat him at this point of my gaming skills and my gear. last league i did it deathless on awakener 8 with slightly better gear pre nerf baron zombie. but times are changing, no problem. so, what next? leveling? no way with the absurd damage you take if you have conqueror mobs, delirium mobs and let´s say a betrayal event at once. the other day i found my self stucked in 6 or 7 icetrails (anti freeze flask up) while glittering projectiles of all kinds rained down on me. totally wiped out in a tier 14 with easy mods. delving? hmm. so again 35 maps with partly hideous design to spawn sirus dying here and there? making exalts on the way? hmm. have 7 exalts to spend but no idea what to buy because i have no idea what i´m doing wrong in the sirus fight. after the last try i dropped the game for two days. now maybe for a week. feeling that small after giving your best isn´t fun. running maps is expensive with chisels, sextants and scarabs and i can´t help myself, at the end it not feels rewarding, i can´t afford a gear upgrade let´s say for 20 ex after all the work and thousands of bitchy mobs. so i need the sirus drops, but ... (see above) |

" DPS doesn't matter with this boss, cos he is always in the air. Playing well with storm is more like this but it is super irritating with immune damage boss that is always in the air. Plus he kills you if you stay too close or too far from him. |

" Im right there with you bud. He barely does any damage to me, knocking off a couple of minions here and there. Then during the final phase, its just over. There is nothing to learn, I cannot see the guy, there is just spinning laser beams.. on ground degen, so while trying to avoid any of this, I get beamed to the face. Then on my last portal (after not dying at all until the last phase), I walk in, do not even see him yet, and get off screened beamed in the face and die instantly. Its not fun, interactive, or challenging. Its just, you get one shot off screen. Maybe I am doing something wrong, I have tried getting as much HP as I can, 45% chaos resist, max all other res. But man, thats just a horrible last phase. I think just to avoid tilt, I need to run maps, when Sirus spawns, open up the portal to him, and just open up another map and forget about him... thats so sad. Imagine a decent fight that gets your heart pumping, not just a, you get one shot, or you one shot him... come on GGG you are better than this. |

" This is the easiest fight for melee - if you're a caster or bow, play as a melee - always stay in melee range, move around Sirus. If he teleport away, dash/charge/leap to Sirus, but not in direct line (to avoid taking beam in your face). Take your time in tornado phase (unlike the guy on the gifs dashing into tornado :D). I have low dps on my ED (probably 500k, maybe a bit more), but I play it like melee, moving around to avoid beam and when Sirus is casting, I'm using blight. It is taking me few minutes to take him down and I may die once or twice, but my build is far from polished. Some tips: - fairly good chaos res - corrupted blood immunity - melee range - don't dash/leap/charge to Sirus in direct line - spinning laser carousel is not as deadly as beam. If you will be force to pick one, run through lasers In this league (unarmed) melee is meta, so I will check this fight as nuts 10+mln dps melee. Fight is super easy when you get used to it. Biggest compliments for my crafted items - "bs, they must have been RMT'ed" I'm disabled, I have rare case of semperduravera, so I can write things that may look rude, but it is because of disability - I'm forced to tell truth using words you may not like.
