GotD bosses are incredibly overpowered

Idc what any of the masochists that play the game say, this isn't a fair dungeon in any capacity. The moths alone are too much and need to be entirely removed. Forcing players into impossible situations because there is a creature in the game that is a tiny moth that blends in with the rest of the luminescence of the environment is plain unfair. This is a dungeon; not a raid. The numbers of damage and health the bosses have plus their "special" abilities do not line up at all with other dungeon bosses. GotD bosses are suitable for 6 players. If you're going to make a boss have so much health, then you need to tone down the amount of active mechanics and remove these unfairly overpowered abilities. I'm sick of hearing this bullshit that the game needs to have so many things going on to make it hard. But the problem is everyone who works on this game takes that feedback, and multiplies it by 10 in-game. These bosses, like all other dungeon bosses, should have maybe 4M health max for solo players. If you think it's fair to make a player kill TWO bosses that have the same health and amount of abilities as raid bosses, then you need a reality check. Quick damage rotations are a terrible excuse for overtuning a boss into oblivion, and this mindset of development needs to change before the next major dungeon release. To be clear: the enemies are fine, it's just the bosses that are beyond obnoxiously overtuned. A solo challenge should not feel like this, nor take this long. These mechanics plus the complaints earlier make this dungeon easily the worst and most unfun experience I've ever had in a dungeon, and Spire was already bad with a damn Wyvern boss in close-quarters. Using player fatigue as a difficulty curb to THIS extent is the laziest development I think I've ever seen in a video game.

  • It's actually a lot of fun with 3 players. The boss fights are great, it's the sections in between that feel so long. Asking to make it easier to solo is just admitting to everyone who has done it already that you're not good enough.
