As a melee character, the shade colossuses body blocking the void tether shades when you try to attack them. If this isnt intended it needs to be fixed because it's just a very very stupid mechanic. This arena is hard enough for melee. Please bump if you agree.

    They also get in the way when ranged not only melee. Its easier with mag builds coz they got more cleave and destro ult/ meteor. But if got low dps or not enough aoe then just kill the colossus as the spawn. If you keep parsing the boss then soon you'll have 3 colossus up and ofc its difficult to hit the void dudes.
    They reduced the colossus hp significantly (like 2-300k) for next patch. On pts I only applied couple of dots on them and continued hitting the boss. Colossus died in aoe.

    Agree that it can be annoying, but my impromptu solution works fairly well: Go light attack one random tether dude, then just dodge-roll backwards through the Colossi and whatnot that followed/surrounded you, and go to the opposite side to kill one of those tethers instead. Then most the ***-blockers will be behind you... more or less.

    It's not a true fix, but I hope it helps you. This issue twisted my taint, too.

    If you tab target them you shouldn't have an issue. You'll hit straight through enemies you don't want to hit.
