how to beat Dominus

[cool guy yooo :)]

Hi,
I am trying to beat Dominus but I cannot (I am level 43).
What can I do ?
- ask people level 60 to help me ?
- go in the docks to level up ? (farming)
- other solutions ?
Thanks.

If you're playing Standard on Normal Difficulty you just keep whacking him. I beat him at level 37, it shouldn't be that hard unless you seriously ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up your skill tree.

[cool guy yooo :)]

yes I f. up my skil tree, so what should I do now, I dont want to restart, so ...how to level up or other solution ?

[Yokai]

you can just keep going to Dominus, doing some damage, then dying and go back to Dominus to finish the game. You respawn right outside the boss area if he kills you. But if you want to go past Normal into other difficulties, it's gonna be really difficult, so you'll want to start clean.

[cool guy yooo :)]

no I wont start clean lol...If I damage Dominus, he will heal himself to full life, so that doesnt work. I will then take the easiest solution, do the dock and level up until 50 or 60 than I can beat him.

Just get someone to run dominus for you.... grinding to level 50+ in norm docks will burn you right out. Just enjoy the game, sometimes you need assistance from other people, there are lots of people who will go out of their way to help you out. And don't be scared of starting over, you will more than likely restart anyway. Most peoples first characters are not very good, so in the meantime just learn and enjoy yourself :)

I got a question, what happens after Dominus is dead ? I heard there is no act 4.

No...he dose not, assuming you are playing a soft core league the fight dose not reset and his helath dose not regenerate...you can lemming zerg him if you don't mind dying, and when you die and choose to spawn at the last check point you spawn right at the entrance to the boss room

You go to the next dificulty...and there is not act 4 "yet", they should be adding that from october...possibly next year depending on how much work it needs.

---------------------[EDIT]------------------------

According to the announcments post today, act 4 will be next year.

Many bosses regenerate their health but not him, so we found him a weakness !
So I will make his health lower and lower and die 50 times until I get him ? Isnt it a bit...boring ?

Actualy, almost every single boss in the game outside of maps don't regenerate thier health, the only ones that reset are the bandits and they technicaly don't regenerate, and hillock who regenerates some health when he hits the second phase, thats only when he draws the sword though.
Rogue exiles and rare monsters are not "bosses" .

At which phase of the fight are you having the most trouble? The lightning phase? The ascended form? (spoilers!)

Lightning phase:
- watch out for the fist of god --> get away when he drops the audio-clue or raises his fist
- kite the suiciders if he uses them
- move semi-circular around him when he uses his lightning stream, might want to just block it with obstacles and wait
- watch out for shocked ground, if you stand in that you'll take more damage
- try to hit him each ~4 seconds at least, else you risk his shield regenerating (you might have a few seconds more, dunno, but you may miss etc...)

Ascended:
- Stay inside the bubble
- Get a bleeding-removal flask and watch your bleeding status (don't move too much while bleeding)
- watch out for the double-machine-gun-enemies, take them out because when they're alive you shouldn't be standing still

The first form, it's the hardest, but after dying 10 times, I got him :)
I found how to do :
1/ attack, flee, attack, flee (I use whirling blades + life leech ).
2/ then I die, but his life is a little lower.
3/ go to 1/ until he dies
Actually, Dominus is not hard to kill, you just need to find the way (escape attacks + life leech).
Thanks for the help, because I thought I would never succeed until I reach level ??.
