The Weeping Woman (Depths Of Malatar)

LtAscott

This boss needs to be toned down a bit, literally every mechanic one shots.
the adds? one shot.
the spells? one shot
the stacking AoE boss attacks you cant see cause of the floor? one shot and too hard to see.
Please tone down this boss, whether its ad count or the health of ads, or the damage they deal, it severely needs to be taken down a notch.

LtAscott

stone watcher's jagged ice is literally the most annoying and irritating thing in the game, and during this fight your trapped and murdered by abilities you cant avoid at times.

This doesn't need any nerf.
You need to learn to improve.
For my group they just hard target the boss and nuke her.
I grab the adds as a tank and hold them on boss they either die to cleave or vanish when the boss dies.
The fight lasts about as long as a warhorn.
If you can't see aoe change the color to something you can.

I would suggest changing your aoe color to something like bright pink, so that you can see them clearly. Also you could try moving the camera as far away from your character as possible.
If you don't have enough dps to burn the boss, you need to focus adds. As far as I remember, there's always a message warning you about stone watcher spawns, so you could stack the watcher with the boss as soon as he spawns and focus him.

This is the easiest boss in the dungeon. First of all, make enemy AoE brighter color and learn the pattern. Solid = out, hollow = in. Adds are a priority, kill them fast. If there are no adds, focus the boss and do the in-out dance. Rinse, repeat. When you have more experience and higher DPS, just nuke the boss.

LtAscott

It was group dynamic issue mostly, the people you get from pugs can be... Lacking.
The main problems had to do with the healing and other DPS not paying attention to telegraphs, I kept trying to nuke the ads switching off boss but I'd have to dodge an AoE into another AoE then get 3 poisons dropped on my head while undodgeable Ice blasts shot at me and half the team was already dead. I ended up getting frustrated and just nuking the boss ignoring everything else and as soon as a new healer had joined the group we made it through the next try.

And yes I had to change my color to yellow, I had the camera zoomed out all the way, the Stone Watchers have a channeled ability that locks on to you and they were killing me in 2 hits (and the time between telegraph and trying to avoid was extremely low) while I was trying to dodge the other abilities and rez the healer, the tank died so everything aggro swapped to me was a very bad and frustrating experience.

Malatar too hard? Try frostvault. You will want to uninstall the game

Havent been there for a while, but cant you just bash them when they channel? Or use crushing shock if you're on magicka build.

Yes you can bash
The tank should have
It sounds like you had a very poor group op.
However just because a poor group can't clear doesn't justify nerfing what is already very easy with a 1/2 way competent tank and dps.

Frostvault is OK, except for the "of course they have a troll" boss, the stun, toss in the air, interrupt, add mechanic is insane. There may be a way to avoid it, but I have never found it.

The last boss with the skeevertron mechanic is easy, but I really hate mechanics that change your skill bars. I find them disorienting and they knock me out of my "groove". Which is probably the intended result, lol. Stone Garden is the same way.

The troll is very similar to the troll in blessed crucible, if you are too far away, he will jump on you. So just stack on his booty and burn (range of stun jumps is very small though, so gotta be very close). While tank taunts the wraiths so group won't get stunned.

I was referring to the hard mode of the last boss. The troll boss is child's play

one shot?
I'm..sorry what?

when fighting her I as a potato dps can surrive 2-3 hits depnding on the pictular mechanic meaning if I act fast enough i can surrive...maybe your CP assigment isn't....up to par?

As a tank, I wiped a lot at this boss because I couldnt see the aoe. (i am red-green color blind)

I passed the boss easily when I changed the aoe color to a bright pink.
