Unlimited Power with Waters of Lorien, and the Mask Of the Undying
MOTU is a part of ringwraith set. It gives you the ability of using Waters of Lorien and Spectral Dash unlimitedly.
You can get 'might' by using waters of lorien skill and you can use that to cast the Elven Light skill with three options or you can just execute an enemy. So MOTU gives you unlimited casting of elven light against enemy captains. And this was exactly what i did against ~20 captains that attacked at my castle. They were all trying to occupy the checkpoint and i was whizzing around and casting fire,poison and ice. And i won the defence quest easily. I could have defeated 1000000 legendary captains with this combination, because they cant even touch me.
So i ask developers to adjust this issue. It just suck the fun right out of the game and i dont play anymore.

I was playing at 'Brutal' level with 71 level character.

Removing its ability to generate might would be a good idea. It doesn't really make sense as it stands anyway.

I really hope they don't remove the unlimited-use feature of MOTU, though, because it's one of my favourite items. I haven't been using it as a might generator; just as a way to escape attacks that would otherwise be unavoidable. As enjoyable as being a lightning-fast necromancer is, with my current build an attack from basically any captain in the game even in the general area of my level is enough to knock me into a down state, so losing that capability would be a massive blow.

Try Online Conquest (normal difficulty).

Generating Might via spectral dash isn't as fast as via Fatal Might. For Online Conquest, it's a time trial. You need to clear the 21 enemy captains within 10 mins.

But yes, for normal end-game play, Mask of the Undying is quite OP. Monolith could introduce a lot more time trials in normal gameplay to fix that. The theme of the game is massive mayhem by superhuman Talion, and Monolith should keep that.

yeah. i wonder if thats what talion used to beat eltariel in the start of the Blade DLC...

You are refusing to play this game anymore because you found something to be broken which you say is, "sucking the fun out of the game." Bud, this is a single player game, no one is forcing you to use the build you're using. If it's broken and not fun, then don't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ use it.. plain and simple. Hard to believe that this needs to be explained to people.

Why did you revive this thread a month after the fact to complain about what somebody else found fun?

If you don't like it, then don't use it. The mask is supposed to be overpowered, and no one is making you abuse Waters of Lorien and Mask of the Undying, you can just use Waters of Lorien when you would dodge normally, or just use another mask.

It is a feature that solves all the problems in this game, and I am a kind of person that like a real challenge. So I wouldn't run around with inferior items nor as naked just to make a game harder. I feel like it would be a waste of time. This is entirely a subjective matter. And as my friend 'Snowskeeper' here pointed out, your critiques are just in vain.
Have a good day.

I didn't read the other replies, I was replying to you and your post only.

And you are the one who is abusing the game mechanics to make it easier, and then complaining when those game mechanics (that you abused) makes the game easier. Why not just use Waters of Lorien as a normal dodge? No one is making you dodge and then elven light over and over again.

I could see your point if the game still makes it much easier when you play normally, but the mask doesn't even really matter if you are playing normally, since you usually have enough focus to use Waters of Lorien anyways.
