    Eh. I just kept shoving summons into her face and kept killing the orbs until I'd built up enough Ultimate, then when I got her to 50-60 I whipped out the Storm Atronach. Booyah, done.

    Also: What do you use to record? The only program I got to record PC (razer game booster) doesn't work (when recording) this game.

    I had no troubles with her at all during the beta weekends, but when fighting her this time I died several times on my sorc using a destro staff; However, when I switched to sword and shield (playing a sorc tank), I had no problem beating her ass.

    It seems to be a lot easier as a melee. I simply could not kill the orbs fast enough with a staff, and had some targeting issues as well. So if you have any melee weapons, it would probably be easier to switch to them for this fight.

    3min guide? Damn I wasted her in like 10 secs just using poison arrow and strife and scattershot. Might of thrown in Silver Bolts as well...
  • CatacombHeart
    For those attempting to defeat her on AD side, the same still applies, but it's easier if you kite her around the stone platform as well in order to avoid her ranged attacks, which gives yourself time to kill the orbs, without her being in your face.

    It should be emphasized that destroying her heal orbs gives you the health instead of her.

    Yeah a lot of people say it is easier with a bow...But each class seems to struggle differently. I saw a guy post in another forum that it took him 27 minutes...but he was not hitting the orbs so i was just trying to get that point across.

    I use FRAPS but you really have to tweak it to get a smooth capture. It is kind of a pain. If you buy it ($37) then i can give you some good settings.

    Personal experience:

    I play a full offense sorceress, with a focus on crafting. No summon pet to pull aggro.

    I used Crystal Fragments on her repeatedly, and summoned a Storm Atronach ultimate whenever I could as high burst damage.

    Don't kite her. Get right up in her face and dodge her attacks up close. This way, when her healing orbs spawn, you're able to easily kill them off due to close proximity.

    Use the terrain to your advantage if you need to. Sprinting up a rock face, across the lava, and behind a pillar can buy you time to quick-use a healing or mana potion if need be.

    Wow you had it easy. Orbs seemed to spawn all the way back in the corners. For me they spawned almost on top of her.

    hahah this was somewhat hard to do a level behind as a DragonKnight archer and to CC as much as i could, and didnt know how to use the hotbar yet so i didnt have potions available either! but basically if you can just CC and ranged are good combo!

    People who beat this, I guarantee you were above the level of 8. And, what orbs?

    I was level 8 (look at 2:58 it shows my lvl) and if you didnt see orbs...then that might be why it was so difficult for u. If they hit her and pop then she regains health. If you pop them then you get health. It also depends on the class....well it seems that way according to others on this forum as far as how difficult it is. But i dunno man if you dont see orbs then yeah that would be hard.

    with 2h the only luck I had was to tab target and single basic attack each one very carefully each time they were deployed.

    Pretty juvenile narrative on the video.

    well thank you for the compliment but calling my stuff juvenile is your opinion but if you are still stuck on this fight then maybe the game is too much of a big boy game for u....it is really not a difficult fight....like i said just attack the orbs and keep them away from her. if you cant manage then try a different weapon type or class....i cant beat it for you.

    I did this for the first time on my DK, and I wasn't even aware of the mechanics. I just charged in used my ultimate and a lot of aoe abilities, she went down. Must have taken out some orbs without even realizing it.

    I fought her several times and failed, when she turned into a snake creature. I finally defeated her by somehow preventing her from turning into the snake at all. To be honest, I'm not exactly sure how I prevented that. I killed the skeleton right away, and I used my ultimate to stun her for a good while. Quite a different fight if she doesn't transform.

    I beat her by knocking her back into the lava a few times using 2-handed uppercut. Didn't even bother with the orbs.
  • Jackarseboyz
    I took her down as a LVL 8 DK Tank with no Ultimate. Essentially just ran around in circles hitting her and the orbs. She was too slow to turn and hit me with everything so the orbs managed to heal me whilst I just dwindled down her health.

    It is much easier if you are not playing pact, as for them the area is tiny compared to the other regions. This means that the orbs spawn extremely close, so when the 4 orbs spawn it is nearly impossible to catch them all. Also, it does not help at all if the orbs suddenly bug out, or Doshia resets and runs back to her alcove.

    Yea I got the same problem, I try to kite her round and she just resets. And yea the pact one is soo small orbs spawn almost on top of her.

  • craig_wright24neb18_ESO
    Hmm, watched the video and read comments, hasn't helped one bit. Agree with the above post, I am not seeing the orbs at all so she is constantly resetting to full health assuming the orbs are just spawning on top of her.

    Not having a problem getting her health quite low but like I said when she is back to full health it's a bit demoralising.

    Orb spawns don't seem consistent between the several characters I fought her with. Have seen orbs spawn almost on top of her, spawn so small can't see them till they make contact with her and a few times appear to never spawn but she gets fully recharged.

    Same here. Was watching for the orbs and never saw any (I have enemy health bar enabled) while she healed to full health, other times they spawned right next to her.
