I just dont understand the logic behind getting 1-shot by him off screen? It just doesn´t make sense to me.

Because all of his attacks are clearly telegraphed and he telports in the direction he is facing. If it was random, I would understand - but its not, you should know exactly where he is for the entire right.

The average player should be able to dodge attacks and not rely on being immune to everything for 10 mirrors to be able to do this.

The 'average' player doesn't mean anything. I think he is difficult when you first encounter him, but is one of the easiest bosses to learn and becomes brain dead easy. He is also an end game boss, why should he be easy to beat?

Its not even a gear check, its a completely mechanical fight.

99% of the time I have to run around trying to find Sirius and just realizing where he is when i am dead....

This is pure torture! And a stupid waste of time. Why farm 40 maps to spawn this dude when it is rng to kill him with average gear!!!

Instead of burning 6 portals every single time you encounter him, try learning the fight.

Edit: You are struggling against Sirus as a necro summoner? Wow.

100% of my deaths are last phase beam atack.
No matter what i do and how fast i am he always hit me and isnta kill me.

Move faster, jump around nothing of so called advices just dont work. I have like 0.000001 nanosecond to react to his teleport.
This fight only for korean try harders and 1000000000000 mirrors builds.

It look easy on tutorial videos but in my game he teleports every 2 seconds off screen and use this retarded beam atack.

The boss it self is fine. But why do they have to do this OFF screen beam atack?!!?!??!?!!?!?

Dear GGG pls remove Sirus encounters on maps - it is dog shit! No any text that Sirus spawned on map u just run, killing mobs then in a blink of an eye u see beam from off screen and u dead WTF?
I suspect there is DIE words before beam but I don't want to always turn on all sounds in game bc it is annoying as fk to listen bilion times Zana or Navali. I think most ppl running maps w/o dialogs and with favourite music
I heard on HC ppl just leaving the map if they managed to see Sirus and not die before. Shit gameplay by design GGG.
So turn it off or make HUGE banner which apear every time on maps where Sirus spawned so we can quit at once and roll new map =\

Hello,

Just made my 4 th fight again sirus.

He killed me this time, like the first time.

And let me tell you : It's pure bullshit

The first time you will get one shotted and get angry but you'll think it's on you and that you have to git gud.

Then you beat him, for some reason, he decided to not move off screen this time, actually you always see him on your screen it's ez fight. You win. 0 satisfaction.

Then you beat him again, same thing, this time you don't even die, and he's not getting off screen for no reason, you don't even need to dash, Sirus just manages for some reason to always stay on your field of view and you easily pown him. Maybe you get a drop. Still no satisfaction from the fight.

Then you meet him again, this time in A8, ready for the big fight, completing the challenge, you open the map. Sirus uses a different dialog on his death beam, you can't hear it, you die. You come back, he gets you into the maze : LMAO YOU'RE IN THE STAIRS BRUH FORGET ABOUT IT. You come back, where is Sirus ? Offscreen bruh, he be teleporting and shit, oneshotting your ass like there's no tommorow. You come back, and guess what, tempest is right at the door, waiting to kill you, but even if you manage to dash in some way, the clusterfuck that is the ground gets you anyway. Frustrated.

Dude, if that happened to you, you suck, better go do at least THIRTY maps to get ONE more try to beat him.

To sum it up : This fight is awful, like every single boss they do, because they don't know a thing about challenge and difficulty. Keep throwing RNG and bugs at us claiming it's difficulty. Never compare PoE bosses to other bosses in other games tho, it feels really bad.

For the love of God do something about his bullshit teleportation out of the screen and one shot you in the last phase... Seriously, This stupid fight makes me quit the league all the time...

Sirus deals quite a wide variety of damage types but most importantly he deals substantial chaos damage and often is unfortunately one of the first places newer players discover that their chaos resistance is actually quite important.

My thoughts:
A NPC tell me that Sirus isn't there and as I miss half of the watchstones to complete the Atlas: The logical conclusion is that I can trust it and that means I can trust you. If you take the time to ask a voice actor to record something that specific that has to mean that this is a narrative quest right? That's cool because I know that I'm not ready to take on and end game boss.
But I realize that recording "Be ready for anything Exile" instead of "Sirus isn't here" would have required a tremendous amount of work. So thank you for bullshiting me that way.

As for the fight itself:
As every single people with an eye condition will tell you it was awesome: Dark/red background with dark/red area of effect in an overly dark area. I *litteraly* can't see what is safe and what isn't without increasing the gamma to a value that burns my eyes. You apparently realized that people could overcome your "difficulty" (badly designed isn't a synonym to difficulty by the way) because the maze attack comes with a blinding light with the default gamma. With the gamma increased it was like starring at the sun. I could suggest you to do that but I would expect my message to be deleted (and that would be deserved) but that's exactly what your clever design did to me.

And one last question: Oh in hell am I survive an attack that has no travel time, one shot me and come in the form of a beam cast at me from outside the screen?

It's been a year

I am a casual player i come back play the league 2 weeks to a month and it's been a year where i attempt every time to beat Sirus on Awakening 0 and I always fail and it's always the last phase

this last time i got 5k hp maxed res positive chaos res, endless flasks you name it


he is simply unbeatable to me as a casual player and they you lose the fight and you need to do 35 to 50 maps to "attempt" again
its just madness how this game is turning into a frustrating fiasco just because a handful elite can speed run end game bosses

this is not dark souls stop making it one

oh and i just saw a video of the Maven fight...yeah I am not going to even try

just GGG do us a favor...I am fine with you making hard bosses but stop gating lore behind them its just not fun for casual players


and next time you wonder why most returning players stop by yellow maps...consider that your game is a bit too hard for casual and new players

I'm with this guy. Nothing like timegate behind a limited number of portals or putting a stopwatch on EVERY FUCKING ENCOUNTER

Wait, his attacks actually do chaos damage? I always assumed physical/fire. I watched a tutorial several times and nowhere is it mentioned that he actually deals chaos damage.

This explains a lot actually. Maybe at the time, the info wasn't on the wiki, thanks for whoever updated that.

game are made to be fun generally this (end game fight is not!)
its so hard on motivation after getting reckt by offscreen!
ill shoot my beam from canada to new zeland you are dead GGG good luck next time!
