Help with the champion level flesh.
This guy seems impossible-17-23 damage on 2 targets plus dots? I can't out heal the boss or do damage fast enough to kill it? Do i just need to pray to rng for 3 hearts?

Houndmaster + dog treat + Hound's Harry every turn. Bring an Occultist for the extra damage against eldritch enemis and Hellions are nice too.

The key is to bring tons of dots. Hellion at the first row so she can target a heart if there's one, houndmasters and jesters are both great there with the bleed.

Any tips for stop this champion flesh? The problem is the damage dealt by the boss is *very* big and focused that my healer cannot keep up. My party is vestal for group heal, jester and houndmaster for damage over time both with evasion trinket, frontman is bounty hunter in case i meet with swine skiver on the road to boss. Final result is my team is dead except for bounty hunter. Is there any more effective team? And what trinket i should bring? Thanks for any help.

I killed the formless flesh with dots and I don't remember having such a huge clench with any other boss than this...

I think it would not be a bad idea having heroes who can hit almost everywhere and exploit the weak points (heart)

At last manage to kill it with vestal, plague doctor, highwayman, hellion. Manage to outdamage it although it took my hellion, turns out understanding attack patterns of each body parts help with healing priority, the butt only attack back row, head only front row, spine attack all row i think but weaker. Knowing which one to get heal is helpful.

Make sure you use trinkets which buff your blight and bleed resist for your back row and front row, respectively.

If you're having lots of issues with the raw damage of "Maws of Life" Try use a crusader with "Bulwark of Faith" and a maa who can spam "Defender" in the front two ranks. Their large prot buffs (40% and above) will negate the damage from the giant heads. Then you can use a HM or jester to spam DoT on the flesh.

I'd suggest something like:
1st rank: Crusader - use bulwark to buff prot, then use battle heal and/or use smite
2nd rank: Maa - use defender every other turn on one either the 3rd or 4th rank hero
3rd rank: Jester or HM - spam DoT (bonus to HM for being able to heal himself)
4th rank: Vestal - Always a safe choice

Good luck
