Zolin & Zelina Bosses undoable with minions due to leech

There is the throw rock boss on its support that also have some issues with minions...

I'm glad I didn't start minion this league

Basically Every minion build on the north side of the tree can pickup Heartstopping Presence and put Acrimony on a chaos dot skill with prolonged duration and keep it up on both bosses. This is 125% reduced life regeneration rate for the bosses which zeros out their leech and makes the fight trivial for minion players.

Did you really win using this method with minion build?
Life regeneration and life leech are fundamentally different things, aren't they?

If it's the same specification as poe1, I think it would be effective against Soul Eater... but it's completely useless against these bosses.

Come to think of it, poe1 had a notable passive called “Bloodless”.
But I can't find it in 2. Even if it were there, it wouldn't affect minions, lol.

I can confirm I just tested this, and it does in fact......Not work.

Same here with minions. We had a party of 5 try it and failed a couple of times due to leech off of the minions. We only got passed it as the fight bugged after downing one of the bosses and attacking the other with a bugged health bar. I would definitely have been soft locked here.

fucking this. the fight is aids when even if i dodge all her abilities she still max heals off my minions..... ive done over 3m to her and killed her brother multiple times. Also got the bug where he didnt die and just stood there invul at no hp as well

minions still blow, of course they do...go figure, chaos is also imposible to use if the Rare or Boss has any kind of Regen....I litterally can't be the mettle challenge because the rare has HP regen so high I can't get it below 90% HP, even if I manage that, it restores 100% almost immediately...

By far the easiest thing a Q/A team would've picked up. nothings works for my minions either. Putting down the game till this is fixed

Unkillable as infernalist / spectre minion build due to them leeching off minions and not having enough dps to out dps their leech.

Unable to progress.

Had a similar problem with a friend that was running a minion build while I was on a cold stormweaver build. The leech would take out all damage either of us did, instantly.

For anyone with a minion build, this is one of the few scenarios where asking for help is legitimately fair, because the leech is insane. To solve the issue with my buddy, I had him leave and I took out the woman alone. Then when the man was down to like 25%, I told my friend to port in and we finished the boss that way.

Not only should the leech not work on minions, it shouldn't be anywhere near as powerful as it is. What does she get, 500,000% damage leeched as health? She taps anything and gets all of her health back from half or lower, it's ridiculous.

Add on that their corrupted blood damage is insane. There's no chance in hell you can stop moving during this fight, because to stop means to get hit by the leech attack. So you need to keep moving, which triggers increased bleed damage from corrupted blood, which bypasses Energy Shield. If I got hit by any corrupted blood attack, I had to flask as I was about to die or my flask would regen all of my life, the effect would end, and the debuff would stay around long enough to drain my entire health bar again.

I had the same problem with corrupted blood in Act 4's final areas, too. It's incredibly overtuned at the moment as a DoT.
