God of Schemes - I need help.

Valok

I don't know what I can do to finish the Boss.

I'm a vampire archer with medium armor, I'm currently using as my skills Venom Arrow, Draining Shot, Blur, Shadowy Disguise, Midnight Drain. This is not my standard build but I'm trying to use everything I have to stay alive, however it's not working.

The problem lies when the Titan spawn happens, there are what, 3-5 of them? Using Shadowy Disguise to try to pick them one by one does not work - I still get hit by all those fire attacks attacks and I'm down in 2 seconds. (Is it trully fire based attacks? Does the quest takes into account some players are Vampires and therefor take 50% more damage from all those adds?)

I've also tried to combine Blur + Veil of Blades + Shadowy Disguise in order to try to create a 'safe zone' where I would take less damage, it still does not work though.

I can't finish the Main quest because of that, does anyone have any ideas that could help me?

Being range in this fight is an instant death, or so it seems.

He is un-kitable, and trying to get away from him drains stamina real quick.

Melee damage is meh. I get him to about 90%-75% health before my stam runs out and health.

So help would be nice here aswell!

After another few attempts, range is suicide. He simply catches up to you, and kills you quickly with melee.

Melee however, also ends up getting you killed sooner or later. I'm a sorceerer using medium armor with bow / 2h, and bound armor for more armor ( duh ) and Dmg shields. These are however, quite useless, so I guess this fight is more that you need a good guild or class.

focus on bringing more survivability skills than damage skills. If you block against the Titan's blue attack it reflects it back at them. Doing this battle almost all my damage was from light attacks.

Titans are easy to kill, but the boss kills you easily with Melee, and you can't CC him.

He never melees after the titans outside of his heavy attack which you block or dodge. His main attack after the titans is throwing three orbs that explode. Since you cannot CC him you have to focus on things to mitigate the damage and heal yourself rather than outright damage.

I got a DMG shield and extra armor spell buff, that is however not enough.

Blocking his attacks will drain stamina, as said. I get him to like 60%-80% before I'm out of Stam, and he kills me with Melee :P

You need self healing. The battle lasts long enough and even with mitigation he will kill you from melee attacks if you do not have self healing.

Sadly, sorceers don't have good self healing. I guess sorceerers aren't allowed to complete the main quest.

i agree, the fight is far to tough. there is no play your way here, either you conform to a certian way to beat him or your S.O.L.,no veteran zone for you.

Your healing is boosted massively, as a Nightblade with Swallow Soul (don't remember the original name of the skill but it's in Siphoning) I was at 100% health during almost the entire fight, and it's not exactly the best heal in the game.

I killed it with bow, acid spray on the titans after circling a bit to get them all bunched up kills them pretty fast.

If you don't have a healing skill on your class, equip resto staff, kill with auto-attack, facepalm at how broken the fight is /shrug

So does your damage, and spell abilites, but that doesn't help very much.

There's no way you can out-heal the melee damage from the boss, while also keeping up a good DPS to kill him. A resto staff would be useless for me, as I go for Stamina & Medium armor.

I didn't say it would be fast with resto staff auto-attack, actually it takes forever, but I've been told it works

The healing from it was pretty useless, I had to backpeddle and try to get any of the heals up but I died.

I am okay if it does low dmg, It's just that the boss will kill you quicker than you can heal with a resto staff

Not only is the fight itself frustrating, but every time I die, I get resurrected in the very FIRST room and have to go through the Titans, Mannimarco room and rush to the actual boss fight all over again. I must have done it 3 times by now and I'm so tired of it. Lil much just to be able to continue any content at all, dont'cha think?

I completed the fight but had it bug then had to redo the fight but still defeated it with a light armor resto sorcerer. I did a lot of running to keep away from him but with light attacks a few well placed lightening bolts and entropy morphed to degeneration it wasn't hard just long kind of boring actually.

Key here was not trying to stand toe to toe whittle him down and stay out of his way. The only death was when my computer decided it wanted to update something in the middle of the fight.

So it is possible as a sorcerer. Then again resto is my normal weapon of choice with destr as my alt weapon. I never wear anything but light armor though. Helps with magicka and helps with resist. I am not normally close enough for something to hit me physically if I can avoid it. Keep my clanfear up to help take agro doesn't always work but....sometimes a distraction helps. btw I do not consider myself to be an awesome player or anything just pointing out what works for me.
