Jamanra the Abomination

[onedudesmind]

I have hit a wall i'm lvl 36 witch pet/fire, haven't had much trouble up until this point. It's adds don't seem to go down to fire when everything outside her room is easily deal with. The adds kill me every time during the storm. Any advice?

[Valravn]

isn't it a he?
Anyway I hit a wall here too simply because of the health pool of the boss.
Too much tedium, it costs so much time to get his hp down it started to feel like a job. :\

Lightning Resistance + farm the map before the boss to get better gear and try different skills

[Sabrehawk]

Well I have upgraded all my gear pretty my much, and the rest of the map is easy. And still my dps is not enough. (playing merc btw)

I stuck on this boss too, but managed at the end. Remember that fool patterns and evade. Move around a lot. Don't get greedy with attacking. Dont dodge roll it's lightning spears that it throw at you also when it throwing those spear be sure to be at max range possible. Phase 1 is quite challenging not gonna lie. Second phase is better overall.
Lightning resistance is the huge part here. So I advise you to find two rings with yellow jewel on top. Those give you 25% lightning resistanse as a main stat guaranteed. Some amulets can have it too but those are random. Ideally you should stack 75% total.
Remember, patience is key.

The little crawling adds kill me in the shield, i have no problems with the rest of the battle. I can burn them down the first time usually but they eventually get me during the next storm. I can burn down everything else in the zone with ease,,

The minions is what gets me, or at least drains my health potion and then Jamanra itself finshes me off at some random point. Contagion+ED but it's hard to cast while stunlocked. Maybe this is a purely for melee boss?

spam unearth on them, if youre using cont+ed, drop effigy totem and it will mow them down. but unearth is the goat for that bit, support it with increase area and increased physical damage

the last part, just face tank it and the boss wont use many long range attacks and its melee is really weak you can basically just eat it
the only one you really have to watch out for is the overhead slice.
if the area effects camp the boss, roll away and the boss will follow you then get back up in its face

My unearth is too weak. But I think maybe I can enfeeble with the exploding support+contagion+ED one of them to get all, if lucky. But most likely they will just push me out of the bubble.

Get "MORE" dmg on your skill gems and passive trees. "increased" damage is not enough to do big.

Target the adds? Think there is a button to give orders to minions to attack 1 target .
Otherwise , you can always ask for help in global chat / make a group (other plyers can join you to fight the boss together)

at tht level im guessing you've done ascension? i beat him first try solo.

class: witch
mh: scepter
offhand: arm es shield
armor: all arm and es


i run skeletal arsonists +2
raging spirits
flame wall
fire dog
flammability and pain offering

i spam fire wall, every 6-7 secs cast flammability and if i got full squad alive i pop pain offering for a dmg boost

on scepter i went minions get % of stuff i.e attack speed, attack dmg% etc.


i also have made it a habit to dodge every 2-3 secs. regardless if anything is near me, ive learned waiting to see the attacks in the visual cluster ♥♥♥♥ like this class can bring, is a death sentence.

Definitely stack lightning resistance.

First time I got to the end of act 2, I went in the arena with a set of charms and a set of runes in my inventory to see what kind of damage this act boss dealt. The moment I saw the lightning pylons, I socketed a lightning rune and equipped the lightning charm.

Also consider swapping around skills that are better at dealing with groups of adds when your minions are down. Incinerate?

The boss got decent fire and lightning resistance, but weak to cold. Also move around a lot, learn the pattern etc. I guess you know it already but when the storm comes stand behind your npc companion. The second phase is all about 2. Two tornados, two lasers, etc. Stand close and move a lot. That boss is probably the biggest dps, movement skill and patience check in the game. Once you kill him, the second try (cruel) gonna be easy.

[Fraktal]

Face tank him with Titan like I did.

900 hp. 70% armor rating
40+ lightning res and a lightning charm

[Rogue]

He's weak to cold... But it took every dark souls skills of mine to clear him in act 5(cruel act 2).. Getting to phase 2 is easy enough for me with a chaos build blood witch, but phase 2 is the hard part (Tornadoes, raining lighting , tunnels that spew out lightning bolts, heavy sword smash, circle sword swing, shrinking area due to all the effects, etc). Also If you have enough armor, you can survive his main sword smash (No longer 1 hit).

Act 2 version is easy enough...
