Normal Coop super easy?

[Gisborne]

Me and friend are playing on normal in coop, I did some bosses without him and some were hard ish, but now even when i remove gear to be same ilvl fighting them isnt even a challenge, Are some bosses supposed to be super easy like this? i thought bosses scaled with more players but they died even faster and easier...

I have no idea what they did but my friends and I used to have so many issues with like Vincent, Christina, Palora, Maja etc.. and we have 1 shot every single boss.. and we are GS 84 now.. I swear they made the base game easier.. like A LOT easier.. and I do not want to play brutal but normal feels extremely easy.

I fought the wine dude.. and I had to do him like 10 times previously in EA.. now I literally killed him in about 90 seconds.. we don't even make sure we have good blood or pots.. we don;t need them.

I know Atom and Dracula will still be hard I'm sure but everything so far has been a cake walk.

Bosses do scale up, but it's not a simple +1x multiplier for each player. Also more adds will spawn in fights that have them.

Some fights become easier simply because one can distract/tank while the other can keep fighting. Some fights will become harder because the boss will spawn more attacks and adds that make it far harder to control the flow of combat.

Sounds like you got good! You learned the patterns solo and have a much easier time with someone else in the mix to alleviate the trouble. Thats what it sounds like to me.

The scaling on bosses is increasing their hp by 100% for each person involved. So 2 people = double hp. 3 people = triple hp and so on. It does the same to any summons that a boss has, so bosses like the spider will summon a ton of extra spooders for you to deal with if you have a squad of players with you. The damage and tactics of the bosses don't change, though they will flip their aggro around so beware of a boss doing a sudden 180% to target you at a moments notice.

Other than that, bosses are easier as a group provided everyone involved is dishing out their fair share of damage. If you want more of a challenge as a group, play it on brutal difficulty, you might enjoy it! Some bosses will piss you off but the challenge is part of the fun

I don't want to restart brutal yet but shame normal is a bit too easy in coop.

Brutal is quite hard btw. I almost lost to the frost archer to give you an idea lol.

Brutal seems interesting - it isn't just bosses having more hp and doing more damage, but bosses have new attacks/new properties to their existing attacks (same example with frost archer: she casts a large ice nova around herself when she leaves invisibility, and she fires 5 arrows in a spread instead of 3; the level 30 necromancer guy has homing projectiles and I straight up couldn't beat him solo the first few tries which was surprising)

Took me like 4 5 atte pts to kill the 3o necro on normal solo lol. The adds were too much till I used the purple aoe spells. But I can't wait to see what it's like when I coop it later. I just killed the bandit king and that took me 3 attempts.

It's supposed to be easy if you know what you're doing and played the game before.
