whats the fastest way to kill giant boss creatures?

[Scar]

whacking them with hardened ancient greatsword not doing much damage.

Short version ... "git gud"

Don't take anything less than an iron mace into a fight with one. (used it on the boss croc just NW of the sentinels at that small lake) took a while to beat it down, but the armor penetration from the spiked mace did a good job with sundering it's "armor"..
Out manuver it .. hit from the side.
Direct facing, use a shield to block its lunge attacks.

Went head to head with a black rhino using Telith's Lament .. after it knocked me off a ledge and made me mad I made short work of it.

Get out wit that "git gud" crap. Its not a problem of skill. Its a problem of taking an extremely long time. Its not even a problem of patience. This was made for a group. We know its possible, but its not balanced for it. Its basically a raid boss. And yeah people can solo those too....but who wants too??? So Id say "git a life"

Come on Keg, give it a rest. No offense was meant by it.
I've had my own hide handed to me more than once.

Just here to say that fighting a large croc with a dragon bone axe led me to leave cause my weapon broke from full durability (newly built) and the croc was above 75% health. The scaling is off by a lot when that thing is legitimately tankier than the Kinscourge.

If you play offline can use this mod till the main one is updated, made for my own use but if anyone else wants to use it's there.

Can you give us a fast hint wich file to edit to set boss hps more on the line of original hps. Instead of 4k hp each boss and spider only 1,4k i would like to try to edit each boss to 25% of orginal hps.

More like until Funcom holds true to their advertisement.
The game is advertised and sold with a singleplayer / coop mode, so they should offer a settings preset for this mode.

If you happen to be playing solo .. you can modify damage settings which affect you and the NPCs. You can also modify durability settings for armor and weapons without a mod.

Funcom doesn't have to change a damned thing about it.
Wanting them to change it to suit your taste is like asking to be spoon fed.

Will make rest of the game to easy. The bosses are ridiculus tryed Giant Scorpione with godmod and Starmetal Greatsword. Took one Hour!

They're bosses for a reason. They drop skeleton keys now which unlock certain chests that I've read contain legendary stuff. Now, how good that legendary stuff is .... is a matter of debate whether or not it's really worth all the work.
Are some folks complaining the bosses are too buffed because they can't solo a boss to get a legendary weapon? Go figure that one out.

I was able to craft a legendary weapon after hitting level 60 and I'm quite pleased with it.
For me, anyway .. killing a boss was satisfaction enough.

Scaling player damage based on boss HP will make you mow through everything else.
Stop defending lazy devs, they need to show responsibility for what they actually advertise and promise.
Funcom already got a terrible track record in that regard.

I'm not defending "lazy devs" as you put it. But I'm questioning the motives of "lazy" players who want legendary weapons the easy way.

The scaling is not meant to compensate for boss fights, it's meant to balance out the damages between the player and other NPCs which can be a pain in the backside.
To beat a boss, you really have to work your a** off to beat it. But I more serously question whether or not those bosses are really worth the trouble.

[max2k]

You only try to play your self up: If thats so then get realy gud at some think dificult or get a life. Instead of braking to click braindead the right or left mouse button for an hour.

Or you not informed and don't know that the Bosses wher turned in a bad way in last patch:

They only give them 100 Times the HP they had before. What is challenging about hiting a mob with out any danger for an hour. Thats not skill or some challenge that tendious bussywork. They are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ tuned for multyplayer. And not even good for that. Instead of making the bosses challenging they lazy tunned thee hps 100 times they wher before last patch. Is even to much with 4 Persons in Multiyplayer and Endgame Equip, because it was an fast and easy way to make the bosses more "challenging" that will not stay this way.

If you did not try the bosses Solo in the last few day shut the ♥♥♥♥ up and try them

The boss will be needed to break the braclet and esscape. FunCom can not market this game as Single Player and Multiplayer this way.

[Solomon Hawk]

I have taken on and defeated two bosses already.
If I am careless, regular NPCs will still skin me alive.

[max2k]

When? In the last two days? And if don't means you good it only means you realy have to much time.

If it was nt in the last days then you not knowing what is talked about. You speak about an old build wher they had 1% of current hps.
