Act 2 boss is WAY too hard
|
What I found extremely helpful was to go to sleep and return another day.
I first encountered this boss late at night after many hours of playing. I was already exhausted and out of focus plus the boss is not easy - the recipe for frustration. The next day I was done on the second try after I had a nice sleep, food, and coffee. |

I’m a life long Diablo player. With Diablo 4 kinda sucking at the end game I decided to finally give POE a try. I played a monk first getting to the boss around level 32. My healing pot is empty before I’ve done a tenth of the bosses health pool. I went back and leveled to 34 got more resist and still can’t even get to phase two. I quit for two weeks out of sheer frustration.
So I started over making a mercenary. Leveled to 34 and still can’t even get to the second phase. It would be one thing if the entire game had a slow progression of difficulty but everything in the game has been fun and pretty simple and easy until this boss. I want to continue playing this game. I want to enjoy it. But if all I can do is start a new character and play until I fail a 100 plus times on the act two boss it’s just not worth it. I don’t understand why there is such a HUGE difficulty spike at this boss. Considering just accepting that I’m not good enough to play POE2 and moving on. |

none of this has to do with poe1?
the act 2 boss in poe1 requires reasonably fast movement. get you some boots of speed, add you some passives for move speed if you can. we _ALL_ seek movespeed. some builds are just faster than others. move in an arc (I presume this is true for poe2 as well) straight lines are predictable and GGG has accounted for this in poe1. I presume its active in poe2. do not move in a linear fashion. and when you must, double back at a different angle. the bosses are all 'bots' don't be predictable to them. learn how they act. defy expectation. |
