Do you feel that Tho'at is too difficult for the very first Arc in the Endless Archive?

Overland difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 24 DLCs. 40 game changing updates including One Tamriel, an overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver & Gold as a "you think you do but you don't" - tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game. I'm bored of dungeons, I'm bored of trials; make a personal difficulty slider for overland. It's not that hard.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭YesI feel that Tho'at is disproportionately difficult in comparison to the rest of the Arc and too difficult for what is supposed to be the easiest Arc in the Endless Archive.
I'd like to add that I find it especially true for solo runs.Edited by SilverBride on November 21, 2023 3:55AMPCNA1 -

✭YesYes, and IMO even a few of the 4th stage bosses could use being looked at.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭NoI would have voted IDK if I had the option, as I know some other players are having issues with him. And I don't know his completion ratio.
But, I voted no instead since I don't personally have an issue with her.Edited by spartaxoxo on November 21, 2023 3:59AM0 -

✭NoSince this is a thread, I'd like to know, what makes the boss difficult?
On paper, it's a 4.5 mechanic fight.
1. Shard Piles which are spawned by their melee attacks, which occur faster when unarmed and despawn after a short while
2. Shield (Mirror) Mechanic which is basically a "stop direct attacking" mechanic which gives you a chance to reposition/take stock.
3. Tho'at Shard Blobs which if left alone can kill you, but are easily interrupted and in Act 1 are always signaled by Master Malkest saying something because they're taunting them and in some instances interrupting them for you.
4. Eye Beam, a very slow eye beam which only occurs once Tho'at has their sword and subsequently hurls it away to create a slow moving eye beam which chases the closest player to it.
4.5 A singular heavy attack with a 4 second telegraph during which the boss does nothing else.
Comparably:
Dragons in Cycle 4: Fus'ro'da, Breath Weapon ground, Wing knockback, tail swipe, air phase, adds, AoE puddle.
Molag Kena in Cycle 3: Summon Atronachs, Rotating Lightning Line, Invul Phase, Massive AoE knockback, conal AoE knockbackAntiquities Addict0 -
