Well, Kitava#2 and Doedre#1 are both trash-tier level content, especially if you play melee. Don't expect them to be fixed until a major patch.

And even then, their fundamental problems of throwing shit around so you can't see anything and die to unavoidable mechanics will probably not be fixed. Instead GGG will band-aid the problem (in typical fashion) by simply making them weaker. Not by making them fairer.

How does one reach level 95 on HC as Berserker and then dies to shit tier level boss is beyond me.
2 options:
- A derp,
- You're lying.

One characteristic of PoE is that it is extremely unfriendly to hybrid builds. I kind of wish the game made that clear from the get-go, because I too am a fan of hybrid builds and made similar mistakes my first year playing.

Yup, it's extremely unfriendly, unrewarding, simply plain dumb. But, that also makes it fun, and that's probably the reason I'm still playing them, wasn't making the count lately but I think only one out of my last ten builds was a straight one, it's probably more than ten but I'd like to be conservative.

Anyway, one of the biggest problems for hybrid builds, besides extremely limited support on tree, gem links and gear, is the map entry slump. That's when your diluted investment fully catches up to you and won't let go until you've filled out properly on both fronts, usually around level 80 or something.

I suppose the problem in 3.0 is fairly obvious now, instead of the piss-easy slog through merciless up to last passive point in act4, dried lake and early maps you now have to tackle the new bosses for the map entry with a build that's half... no, make that quarter-baked.

I assume it was in perma? The man was probably just catching up on his quests and expected a full cakewalk.

While Kitava has some extreme burst potential, it is a cakewalk after you've done some mapping.

Sounds like a case of git gud. I'm playing a summoner wearing Tabula and I haven't been one-shot, offscreen or otherwise, all the way up to t14 maps so far.

As a summoner you are not stationary, so you must be really dumb to get hit by anything there :D

The OP most likely does play a build, where he has to stand still to cast or attack and that is when he will be killed.

Summoners only work until t 15 btw. once you meet guardians or shaper, you are toast, as your zombies die immediately.

get moar life nodes

Unless you are using Skeletons, Desecrate or Golems. Lol.

Holy shit dude I agree with you but that irony in your comment almost knocked me out lol

all new bosses AND izaro are shit that is completely overpowered compared to the rest of the game at least up to tier 10

(though that tier 9 chaos boss is quite ridiculous too if you don't have ci. he fills almost the entire arena with his chaos shit, no way to escape it)
