Sirus fight is making me quit POE

The offscreen deaths you take when approaching Sirius (is it a bug that you hear no speech from Sirius that indicates his one-shots in the last phase??) made this fight unenjoyable for me. Offscreen kills are literally garbage, I hate them, nothing to learn from them. Otherwise his mechanics are ok.


Why are you letting him go off screen? He always teleports in the direction he is facing, so you should always know where he is. Even if you don't and manage to lose him, simply moving in a circle will ensure that you don't get hit, the same as every other boss in the game.

Maybe he died and had to return through hundreds of doors/portals?
Sitting in HO spamming alts for 4 hours straight is peak PoE gameplay. Thanks, Chris.

If you die, then you should wait a few seconds to allow the boss to finish his attack animations. The same could be said for any other boss in the game.
This fight isnt to bad when you have the build for it. BUT. The big issue is with the game. You need a map clearing build, to smash all the map content. And a boss killer build for the bosses. There are few builds that do both well and leveling another build is tedious.

The vast majority of good builds will be at least decent at both. If you do decide to build a pure mapping character then I mean sure, maybe you do need another boss killing character, but thats completely up to you.
Mechanics , offscreen, lag and desyncs are just garbage.
have same feeling here.
While a horde game with very simple and rudimentary path finding , having a fight like this is just bad design.
You depend on luck on the vortex positioning , etc.
It is kinda of broken, in a non challenging or skillfull way.
I skipped him last time, got him once this league (6ex drop) but really dont like that fight
go figure, another bugged out sirus fight.

all the same bugs from my previous posts with two new ones:

he got stuck in phase 3 and repeated it over and over and over.

when he finally choked out of it, he then fell into the bug loop i described before.

movement skills would randomly disable, wasn't stun, wasn't freeze, wasn't zero mana. (got all 3 avenues covered)

this is why i dont give you idiots money, you cant do a single thing right.....

in standard I have legacy gear.... I can kill that F guy fast
but in league without legacy gear... it just like gambling
and whole screen dark and red! It is hardly see where he is going!

offscreen die beam is 1000% bug but GGG just ignore it
I regret contributed USD20 to them this league...

It take so much mapping time to get 1 fight on this F guy....
What I got is frustration only! NO FUN!!

DIE PEWPEWPEW FeelsGoodMan

Amazing fight.
