Haha, still cannot kill hc Drakkari Colossus

[Ughmahedhurtz]

Managed to get him down last night, it helps not to be intoxicated.

Still a very retarded boss. The pools come out constantly and do way too much dmg. Sometimes they will appear and immediately tick for dmg. My rets have 23000 hp and the pool will make short work of them, just 1 tick will bring them below 50%.

Screenshot/log of one tick of the ooze hitting for 11k or it didn't happen.

I liked the suggestion for seal of truth - that seal heals for a measly 700 pts, it would take several swings to heal back the dmg from just 1 tick of a pool.

Check it out. Each white swing triggers it and heals you. Each melee ability heals you. All that can happen like really fast!

I know a lot of you are very elite multiboxers that could do this fight in greens with grey weapons, but this is definitely the gayest boss for paladin teams - in my lowly unskilled multiboxer opinion. Come to think of it, it is the worst boss for me. Ionar follows very close in second.

In my completely overpowered and justifiably l337 opinion (BOW DOWN MORTAL), I agree that he's one of the more retarded bosses. Just spamming nature damage all over the place seems like a lazy developer's way to make a boss "harder." Still, keeping moving constantly while the water phase is active is key and once you get it down, there are few teams that can farm him as easily as a paladin team.

Some of the heroic bosses are much more focused on positioning or coordinated movement than they are about gear. Colossus is one of them. Sounds like you're having more trouble moving than anything else. Maybe post a video of one/some of your failure(s) and let us critique?

Sincerely,
Your Uber Colossus-Killing Overlord

P.S. I'll try it tonight with half my gear off, just to drop my health pools down to mere mortal levels. It'll be tricky but I think with the right amount of hax, I'll manage. Video to follow.
