    For the record - I was wearing full heavy armour, with about 23K totalt health.

    Try medium armor if you want to do damage. Most of the time, tanking a boss to death is kind of hard.

    Just to be clear, Urfon Iceheart is not a world boss - he is a boss at the end of one of the main quests, and is intended to be difficult, but soloable. If everyone is finding that he's too challenging to complete alone, please let us know.

    I soloed it in 15 seconds, I don't know if anything changed about the fight in the PTS update with EU character copies, but it might just be a simple "learn to play" issue.

    Don't worry folks, I've taken the hint. If you haven't got 100s of champion points and lots of Undaunted gear you have no right playing this game, I get it. I've uninstalled the PTS and won't be giving any more feedback on this game.

    Perhaps, you know, you could take a picture of your stats and describe the encounter in detail as to why certain parts of it were difficult for you. ZOS needs data, and they need to know where something is falling behind. Since you provided nothing, much of the thread has just been a l2p deal with little actual talk of what you couldn't complete with numbers behind it. Also providing detail about the skills you use on your bars help as well. Otherwise, the Devs will ignore this, it is not helpful and they gain nothing from it.

    Devs don't read forums, and posting these things on forums only serve as trollbait (as the troll just above me so elegantly proved). Besides, it has been documented that the average number of CP is 92. My character has 89. THAT's what content should be balanced for - THE AVERAGE PLAYER - not the small minority with hundreds.
    Anyway, since I'm obviously not l33t enough for this forum and game I'm retired from testing permanently, and as such this thread is no longer needed - at least not until release, when THE AVERAGE PLAYERS with their 90 CP starts encountering this OP boss in droves, and it finally gets properly balanced. I promise to make an "I told you so" post.

    The encounter is already balanced for the average player.
    Because when someone who really has hundreds of CP tries to do it, this happens:

    You aren't helping make this game better, Nord. You're just ranting purposelessly. If you provided detailed information, you would get help from fellow forum users or failing that, you'd at least tell ZOS what exactly they need to adjust. "I can't kill this boss, nerf plox" is useless when nobody knows if the problem is with you or with the boss, and what exactly it is. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's with you. I don't know. You refuse to tell for some reason. We don't even know what class you play.

    No-one's asking to make it easy, just to make it non-impossible.

    Impossible? Yet plenty of us have killed it. L2P issue

    It's the main quest of the area, after you meet the King's mother, she sends you to meet the king at the Briarheart fortress to the west.

    Yep, that's the one. Note that you need to have the Story Quest "For King and Glory". You can't get to the boss fight just with the Side Quest "The Hidden Harvest".

    Of course it is with 100s of CP. The average player doesn't have 100s of CP, he has 92 - documented elsewhere in the forum.

    Yeah, it's pretty much "stay out of the red" and range the guy down somehow. Think I used reflective scales on a lot of his ice spells and the archers.

    No amount of CP will make an "undoable" fight last less than one minute ;-)

    @Maotti_Nor : Thanks for the nice video (always wonder how you manage with those horrible number clouds on the screen ;-) ). I remember that fight and while I struggled more than you, I wouldn't call it difficult at all.

    How many CPs do you have ?

    Don't worry, I've long since uninstalled PTS, and won't bother ever buying Orsinium, guess I'll stick to crafting for the future, and the occasional pvp or dungeon run with guildmates who don't demand that you wear THIS EXACT armour and use THESE EXACT skills to even be remotely considered worthy to play this game.

    ZOS's number of 93 is absurd. Everyone at Vet level got 70 just to start months ago. A player with only 93 now is someone who basically plays once a week. Since this is a game of progression playing that little will yield very little advancement.
