[Roguelike] Red Dragon is healing 5-10k per turn?

[Phoxly]

I thought my summoner party was doing pretty great, but apparently the Red Dragon just heals to full every turn? I ran into it at level 20 on Map 5/5. Is there some trick to this?

The bosses in the roguelike are so over powered. I ran into a fire demon who can burn the whole arena every turn dealing 12-20 damage each turn and every title you move through.

I ran into a Minotaur who would charge and stun me every turn.

An ice mage who would freeze me in a block of ice every turn.

And the list goes on.

Isn't there a Decaying Shrine with the fight ? If so (as i had them when fighting my dragons in Roguelike mode) then use it by keeping the dragon inside.

honestly, if you are at lvl 20 and map 5/5 and you do not do 10k dmg a turn, something is way off with your build. The red dragon has an egg phase where he spawns 10 eggs, each egg having around 3.5k hp, you got 3 turns to kill them, as then they will hatch. They are spread across the map in 3 clusters. I managed to kill 2 of the 3 clusters every time without much issue and still keep the reg of the red dragon in check.
Also he does not reg 10k each turn, he regs around 5% of his max hp each turn, which at 110k would be around 5.5k.
Never seen a mob with more then 120k hp in that mode yet.

You should try diff 3, thats a fun run and honestly needs tuning.. as of now its not beatable with lvl 1 chars

I just spent 45 minutes in Roguelike battling Red Dragon as a level 20, another player joined then left, a 3rd player joined then left when it's obvious how long this battle will take when the boss regens so fast. I finally beat Red Dragon...and then the game hangs. I'm torn between trying again and uninstalling :/

Just ran into the red dragon as boss 4/5 in roguelike (difficulty 1). What a waste of time this game was. That was unplayable. Easiest difficulty, spawns a red dragon with a ton of actions per turn, insane regen per turn, no helpful shrines. I was wiping the floor with the other fights, even the "hard" ones, but this dragon is just a huge overtuned middle finger to the players.

How is this game rated so high? What an incredible waste of time.

Yes, "get good" applies here, but I'm on difficulty 1 for a reason.

As for why the game is rated so high, well that's because plenty of people have beaten the red dragon, for once, even if they struggle at first, but there's also the campaign mode, which lets you builds as much as you want.

If you want to play the game without the roguelike annoyance, you can switch to that mode and build with us on the discord :D

The dragons are tough but once you learn the synergies, you can work around them. there are also several skills that reduce healing. Poison is the most common and it is effective if you have someone who can stack it quickly. Control resistant is not control immune. It can be worth it to spam your stuns and sleeps on the dragon in hopes of getting a turn or two of respite. Levelling your gear at a vendor in world 4, after level 16 or so is huge as well. your damage will skyrocket with higher level gear.
