Got around to doing the uber fights this weekend for achievements. These fights were clearly unrefined. Which can be ok, if they hadn't made them a large chunk of achievements.
Uber Eater: pure bullshit. Even Mathil hates this fight. The margin of error on dodging his "Perish" attack is non-existent. I did the fight twice and never managed to dodge it. No other mechanic killed me. Had to end up graveyard zerging it.
Uber Exarch: not quite as bullshit, but almost. The room for improvement with more practice is there, but more on that in a bit.
Uber Maven: honestly, fine. Maven's Memory game doesn't belong in PoE though, so it's hard to think the harder version of an already flawed fight is exciting.
Uber Shaper: bullet hell is what exarch's meteor maze should be. You can survive 1, maybe 2 hits, and there's lots of ways to improve. Get some spell suppress though. Eating just one shaper ball kills you otherwise.
Uber Uber Elder: ran out of portals on my only set. 0 spell suppression is brutal on this fight.
Uber Sirus: I was prepared to be pissed about this one and...2 deaths. Maybe having a ton of dps really helps on this fight. He meteored me only once.
Uber Cortex: lol? Wouldn't be surprised to see this get a major adjustment next league. As much as more dps helps against most bosses, it is most apparent here. Deathless first attempt.
Which leads to the overall problem with these fights. There's definitely room for improvement on my part. But I don't feel like putting in the work. There's no guaranteed drop like shaper and elder guardians that makes your time worthwhile. IDK, maybe rewarding casual bossing can't exist in an BoE economy.
Can't wait for the conditional achievements for these fights next league...
