RNG Boss Fights

Firstly:

Elden Hollow I

Canonreeve Oraneth will now shield herself less often with Necrotic Shield.

I don't believe this needed a nerf, but ok.


RNG Boss:

Tempest Island

Stormreeve Neidir will no longer follow cowardly player characters away from the summit of Tempest Island.

So you fixed it, that's fine. But to dodge roll out of AOE, just to get get knocked back INTO AOE by random gusts of wind, is ridiculous. Then you get executed by lightning to top it off.
Try ressing a player, get knocked around by random gusts of wind, try again to res a player, get hit by RNG again, and again, and again.


So, you nerfed a mechanically basic boss. But then, in the process of fixing another boss, actually buffed it's RNG.

    I have a good solution for the Tempest Island problem.

    Don't die.

    Non-constructive rubbish. Get out. Also, I play the tank, so staying alive when everyone else is dead and trying to res while getting knocked around by gusts of wind is not always possible. Again, RNG.

    Just because you don't want to hear it doesn't make it non-constructive rubbish. It's the plain and simple truth. This fight is terrible/nearly impossible to res in. It's not hard to stay alive in, however. Keep an eye on the gusts, avoid the big red AOE, and most importantly, stay in melee range unless you want the boss to superman-oneshot the group all over the place.

    I used to fight this boss down the hill on that platform area..... cooler boss fight spot than the location you actually find the Stormreeve :/ not very happy to hear I can't do this anymore.

    Tempest Island is an easy boss... For me cause I'm a really good player. HOWEVER, I know others are not as good, nah jk, I just had to pay attention to the mechanics and explain it to the pugs it became dirt easy. As soon as you pay attention to mechanics and stop being insane (doing the same thing and expecting different results) then any boss cam be overcome.

    Also none of her mechanics can one shot you if you play magicka and have a shield up...
