Quest Thanos Vaults Boss Should Not One Hit Players.

The giant mob at the end of the minecart section can one hit me with his charge attack. (I have 7127 HP) Having to redo the minecart section every time I die is really tedious, and I think the boss's damage should be lowered so that he cannot one hit kill players with a spell that is hard to dodge. (Because he's a giant it has a huge AoE)

 

get more defense if you're talking about your assassin

 

I was going to correct you, but it turns out that the boss does indeed inflict 9000-9500 damage for no discernible reason.



That will be fixed(and the GM who made that decision will not be named, to protect the innocent), but the Charge's explosion actually only hits about a 2-3 block radius. The size of the mob does not affect the size of the spell. In addition, the Heavy Charge spell most often causes mobs to go sailing harmlessly over your head unless you are a good distance from them, so it is not difficult to dodge.

 

My assassin is based on Agility, I got unlucky with dodges three times in a row. He has no elemental damage so it's not an issue of me having bad elemental defense.

get gud m8. He a raid boss.

 

I'm betting you but I'm probably wrong

 

I had no part in the creation of that boss until fixing it just now.

 

Well that explains why I kept getting killed thinking I was safe standing thirty blocks away from him spamming smoke bomb.

 

He moves very slowly, so one of the safer places to stand is close to his feet, surprisingly enough.

 

I do agree that this boss, for a medium quest, was a bit overpowered in terms of charge damage. I have a strictly defense warrior with around 8500 health. When I fought the boss, one charge would deplete my health about 1/2 of the way. While this wasn't a major issue for me, builds that aren't revolved around defense would most likely get one-shot by the charge.

I would recommend maybe cut the damage of the charge in half so it will deal high damage, but not fatal damage. The charge can be missed easily, but we can't keep dodging forever.

 

The problem was the fact that the boss had like ten times more damage than it needed to. This will be fixed next map push.

 

Alright seeing as this is fixed I'm going to close it down, thank you for your feedback!
