yup keep getting him to 1 bar and almost instantly killed

[SpaceBuddy]

I got his health to zero, then the bar went to full health, do you have to kill him twice?

[Charred Muffin]

try on very easy ^^

[Schutzengel]

Since there is no gear that has Poison Resistance you have to change the difficulty to 'Easy'.

Apparently that makes him casual.

ended up joining a coop game and a lvl 50 killed him haha. Kinda sucks how limited items are atm

Wisdom of the Apothecary passive is a great one for healing, shaves 25% off your potion cooldown at rank 1.

You may also want to choose one of the far pillars for him to focus his melee on, there's two lines that zero in on you, then run behind pillar when he vomits.

Or you can set it to Very Easy and faceroll him too, its not like he drops any loot worthwhile.

This fight is not easy at first, took me also a couple of tries.
I acutally like the boss/mimiboss difficulty in this game, they are a challenge and require tactics to beat.

As for the boss fight:
Learn to read his attack patterns in advance. Makes it a lot easier knowing when to dodge and hide.
Avoid his slam attack (yellow line) by dodging moving away fast.
For the poison breath, you have to hide behind one of the pillars quick. But make sure, you have at least 1 or 2 pillars left to hide behind, because his slam attack damages/destroys the pillars, so lure those away from them. I personally let him destroy the middle pillar, to make room for dodging later on.
The poison rain attacks (green circles) are easy to avoid, just move out of the way.

The fight will just get more hectic and difficult later on, as many attacks from the boss start to overlap and also more mobs spawn. Always try to keep the boss in sight, to see what attack is coming up next. The poison breath is surely the most damaging attack, so hide quickly.

Just keep trying, eventually you will beat him, i'm sure!

It was easier with the mage as soon as you pick a fire & forget spell so you can still dps the boss while focusing on staying alive (went from hard to normal to limit the one shots).

Yet for the scout, only solution was to do it on very easy. The boss seems poison immune by the way.

Hey dude... .I died the first time too. Also playing an Elf...
I have the fireball skill which does a lot of dmg if you spacebar it the whole time on the boss plus hitting him with your standard firebolts rank 2. That's what helped me a lot. And also learning his casts and how to move...

1 word Hard Difficulty IMPOSSIBLE - ELF. F***ing random and no safe spot

['Strict]

Lower the difficulty and then up it again after you've beat him =)

Also, make sure you save one of the covers at least so you can avoid the poison spit.
