I killed Molag Bal first try with my Templar. I thought he was a moderately difficult fight, but challenging midway to the end as he seemed to have gone rage-crazy on me.
However, my wife died repeatedly. She doesnt have the hand-speed and hand coordination-skill needed to beat him and became frustrated and i had to end up doing it for her, which upset her even more because she believed this game is not for her if she cant even come close to defeating him. I considered how many average and casual players had the same problem and came to the conclusion that the Molag Bal fight doesnt guide or hint what is needed.
First off, the fight can end very quickly before you learn what is needed to defeat him. Molag has 4 stages
1. Club you and land on you
2. Club you and land on you and cone attack that hurts pretty bad, sometimes one shots
3. All of the above plus brings adds
4. All of the above minus adds, plus bomb strikes
*The first part is easy
*The second requires some hand eye coordination and reflex otherwise you wont get passed this part. Most people run, using sprint and drinking pots while casting spells.
* The 3rd part must be learned fast, block to reflect the projectiles that will kill the demons, or you will die and not realize that they die in this manner.
* The 4rth part requires a change of plan, unless you have been running the whole fight. I was able to tank him for stage 1 and 2 but had to run when he started dropping bomb strikes. This change of tactics requires some ingame I.Q. , or ability to think under pressure.
I hope this offers guidance to the players that need it for this Battle. Thanks.
