Stuck on Henry Blackbrew atm need some assistance

[grraf]

Umm yeah probably an easy one for those with good footwork but not so much for me as in most boss battles i get hit by smth every once in a while but its not much of an issue as i can either out heal it or 'die' slower then my opponent does...
For this one however there are very nasty&permanent consequences for getting hit(+5% bonus dmg taken debuff that keeps on stacking) and none of the spells i got seems to remove it(tried several that have remove negative effect but none seem to work)
So my question is: what weapons&spells have you guys used to deal with him ?! is there anything i can reliably use other then fancy foot work to deal with all electrical mayhem swarming around(dodge one/two things get nailed by a third-->electro debuf stack gets even bigger)
What am I missing here ?!

Like most bosses, Henry is sensitive to massive damage. Use 2x of your favorite damage spells (I like corpse explosion and frost nova since they are easy to hit with but chaos bolt is a popular choice too), use a weapon that has a ranged attack (reaper, pistols, crossbow are the best), and blast him from medium distance to avoid crossing the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥-beams. The faster you kill him the fewer debuffs you will have. Add in your blood of preference, add in enchanted brew / rage potion or whatever they are called on that tier, and use the rage storm utimate when he gets to 25%.
Minor tips include having pistols to switch to during the blast-wave phase so you have another mobility skill at hand when you get pushed towards the edge, and learning the phasing animation so you can dodge the weird anti-grav attack he does.
This boss is all about the DPS race.

This method looks solid

One thing that did help me a lot with this fight was having the Chaos Dash for the double dash during his AOE wave attack that pushes you to the back wall. This lets you negate a good chunk of that dmg on the first one. The second time he does this move I was able to throw down the Spectral Ultimate that gives you the Shield with the stone golem add.

Outside of that I used Ball Lightning / Chaos Orbs / Scythe E attack a lot and that did the trick.

The key is to do your best to not get the static debuff on you, because each stack just makes his dmg worse and worse to deal with and that AOE push attack he does will wipe you if you have too many stacks.

Blood type is your call, but again something that will boost you surv ability would be key for this fight, so War for dmg reduction or Sorc for spell boost

Well i have done it but i'm not at all pleased with how it had to go down: for phase one i used the customary dodge balls&pile ranged dmg while the electro tentacles flare out.. after that it all went to the doghouse: i simply put aside any sort of safety/strategy and kept dashing behind him and scythe him down while also tossing the scythe special on top of use...barely made it out alive from that one with less then 40HP.
Load out: scythe +veil of blood+ chaos volley&sanguine coil and heart strike ultimate(this one opened up the fight and closed it as well: sent me from near death against the electrified edges of the room straight trough the doc and gave enough sustain to wait safely for him to keel over from the explosion and die)

The rewards tho are nothing but a sick joke: no blood moon armor crafting(need to go have a chat with Matka) no weapon upgrade(Azariel the sunny will be expecting a visitor soon) and no pendant update either(Voltatia is due for a power plant safety audit) about the only thing that can be gained after heavy duty grind and counts as a 'free' power up are probably the two advanced versions of brew of ferocity&enchanted brew

It's really easy, let me explain :

1. Any weapon + Chaos Volley (or any damage spell)

2. The most important part for an easy time, is that you should go with the Ice Block spell (C) + Tempest Ultimate.
Pop these two, in no particular order, one after the other when he does his ultimate.
You'll be immune for the whole duration.

3. Pop Ice Block every time you accidentally hit him while he counters (you know, he turns immaterial waiting for an attack).
You either hold your fire, or if you hit him, just pop your Ice Block. (you can ice block any time you feel you're gonna take damage)

Note : If he becomes "invisible" during the fight, it's because you've hit his counter, so react with an instant Ice Block. You won't take the CC / Lock in the air.

4. Dash his Blue Balls.
(just stand in front of him when he uses his Lasers, they are in a "cross shape", your completely safe in front of him. Try to burst him here, give all : Q + E + R)

It's really an easy fight, in fact you should even "farm" him for legendary weapons.
