Game is really anoying - boss fights randomly onehit

[Quartox]

Sorry, I am not masochistic enough to like games, where it is totally random to die instantly. I am now at level 29 in the titan grotto at the boss with mit witch. The grotto is 26, I have no chance to defeat the f... boss. I deal no damage, can not cast cause I need always to dodge, move always around like a stupid chicken. I randomly get oneshottet by this boss, sometimes after 5%, sometimes with 10% left. Even wile alway dodging attacks, sometime he just predicts where i come out of my dodge roll and hits me then. What a sh... I farmed hours long to get more level but get nearly no xp, no useful items and no support skill gems. I start to really HATE this game, though I was really looking foreward a long time for the release.

And guess what, for this game there is a hardcore mode. LOL

" sometime he just predicts where i come out of my dodge roll and hits me then."

Then you are rolling way too early, learn the timing, this aint diablo 4.

Dodgeing too soon will get you hit. Have to time it right. Also, just running to the side is usually enough to avoid damage, save for a few special moves that are sweeping.

The giant with the platform ? Just hug him, most of his attacks will miss. When he moves, follow him. You may glitch and fall off the platform but it rights itself after a second or two.

There is no random one hits in game .
all bosses have they own attack pattern . You have to learn how to dodge them .
Some spells will strike where you was standing at the start of boss casting his attack other attack will target you at the end of casting .

Staying far away from boss and not see what he is doing is bad thing to do . You wanna stay mid range and watch what he do .
You talking about titan in act 2 so probably struggle with his claw attack ?

oh no the boss is winding up an attack better dodge all over the place so i can avoid the attack just look for his dead spots the giant has a ton of them almost 50% of the arena is safe all the time....

Well no boss will just randomly one shot you, there is always a tell regardless if it is a normal attack or one of their overly elaborate one shot attacks.

Everything, especially at that level, is doable. You may need to tweak your build a bit or get some gear upgrades, but you just need to spend a bit of time to improve your build in some way.

I highly suggest to focus on +skill levels and +damage type on your gear, this will help more than more health/survivability since a dead boss is a boss that doesn't hit you. Make sure the passive nodes you are investing in are ones that will affect your skills, use alt on m/kb or right stick on controller, if the skills aren't showing up they may be pointless for your build.

Regardless of the boss with the exception of a few, there is no time limit, so if you learn the patterns you can avoid the attacks and eventually win. Granted you rather end a fight in a few seconds instead of minutes, but a win is a win.

I can definitely tell someone who doesn't have Dark Souls experience ^^

They need to zoom out the camera for this boss fight, how are you sposd to play at range when you cant even see his wind up?

sound like you need to zoom out and turn off mouse wheel zoom. lol 😂

Stand in front of this boss and let loose your damage. Get as closes as possible, just be wary that it can damage you even this close Once this boss has about 1/3 its health, its minion come out.....And then they kill you.

I cannot get through his minions at all.

You getting one shot is not random. You need to upgrade your defenses. Ive been one shot twice against colossus (titan grotto boss), and so next char (because I play hardcore) i just make sure I have the defense to do it this time. I don't rely on dodging all the attacks, because that knife slide attack he does is too unpredictable imo to dodge 100% of the time. So take the randomness out of the equation by making sure you have enough life/energy shield/armor to not be one shot by it.

yet another casual and their issues with boss hard = game bad logic.

Ignore all the "skill issue" elitists. I am totally with you on this and stopped playing weeks ago. Clearly the devs and the community don't want casuals in this game.
