Forgemaster too strong

We cant all just drop everything and respec cold damage

Doesn't really give anything important to finish that quest so he's not too important.

A tip though, if you have a way to stun, freeze, bind, anything that stops him from moving, and have it happen when he just barely jumps into the lava, it will break his ai and do nothing while you pound him to death. If you still can't kill him after even that, your dps may not be able to make it much further in cruel.

His ai can also be broke by being between him and the lava when he wants to go to the lava, causes him to run the wrong way and can also beat him down without mechanics.

I just saw a tip about beating him easily. You can lure him away from the lava and pummel him really good. He'll return to the lava to recharge his armour. rinse, repeat. Or you can do it the hard way like I did.

just kill him

My playthrough. Even when 10 levels above him, he's still formidable. https://youtu.be/HerP5aGn8eM?si=f1ywWeG3szu6GUz9

Reforge bench.

Is he tied to that?

This makes it a very important fight then.

[Necropants]

It's a dps check, get a better wepon or respec for damage momentarily.

I know you can get it in Act 3 if you beat him. Now whether the game just gives it to you for Act 1 Cruel I don't know as I honestly didn't pay that much attention on my first round but saw many people I know get it before Cruel.

I have my reforge bench and have not done him since my first playthrough, i skip most bosses.
