Shadow Witch Thought

[FluffNStuff]

Got a thought for the Shadow witch on a possible way to beat her with out elixirs (If anyone has been on a team that has, please post how). It would require 4 hammer bears and a mage. Need to send in all 4 hammer bears at once, and with luck, 3 out of the four will survive the initial blast and lock on. Once they start pounding away, this should keep her in a perpetual stunned state. At this point, the mage rezes the other bear, and heals. Just a thought, as I have seen multiple hammer groups keep other int bosses from blasting this way.

BTW, heading to bed now, but if anyone wants to test this tomorrow, I have hammers I can loan out.

Bears can survive with no elixirs already.

Our bears were taking 800 point crits and getting blown away. Have you seen a group survive it with no armor or damage elixirs?

I thought it was odd that she was the only boss that posed a problem. We needed elixirs for her, but not for any of the other bosses. And the final boss was pretty easy.

Anyone feel differently?

Ok I have created the perfect way to kill it without elixers. TWO BEARS DECKED IN RIFT SET CRUCIAL! DEBUFFS AND BUFFS MAXED ON THEM CRUCIAL! Now once these two bears lock on! Birds and elfs come in and damage debuff the boss FIRST THING! Then Bears keep boss stunned and cornered and kill it. I have tried this and it worked flawlessly.

She needs to only be able to hit one target at a time or less damage and aoe she's way to overpowered

[ballersburden]

She was the toughest, made our group die over and over... I'm a bear and had a tank elixer going on and had to solo her for the remaining 1/4 of her life. Took a great while.

NOOOOO! I DO NOT WANT A NERFED BOSS! This is the first time in a while farming and the game has been fun for me! If they take it away.... I will be very mad and disappointed!

Lol don't you know by now that this is how the game works? Starts off challenging, people complain, it gets easy. That's the pattern.

[Lesrider]

Btw, I think the witch should have been the last boss. The final boss was a joke.

Ya... I was a bit dissapointed with the final boss. BTW Lesrider, I tested full rift set on my bear... I actually contribute to the group now and can sustain aggro and DAMAGE Targets, as well as tank. People INVITE ME on my bear now.

[Lesrider]

Lol yeah I just saw your other post and responded.

I still don't like my bear. It might be due to the fact that I keep using my slash skills on the air bc the enemies keep flying away before I attack. The bear skills should all charge, since they do nothing without contact.

I don't even really understand how shes hard? We cleared her no problem at all then moved onto the next map. Bears just stunned her nd we wasted her before stun ran out.

Didn't you say you were using elixirs the whole time?

[Pharcyde]

Different team like 10 minutes ago. They were all too cheap to buy elixirs.

Anyways, pally ran in first followed by tank. Pally took blunt of aggro and survived with shield. Tank stunned then birds mopped the floor with him. Dead in no time. Also witch sucks debuffed. Debuff before that 800 crit.

[Relytekal]

I was in group with 2 birds, one mage and paly. My bear was potted and sole remaining survivor and I finished the last 1/2 of her. Was slow and used more pots than I care to remember.

[MAGICAL POCKET LEGEND]

pharcyde was that our group that we had with lone? BTW y wont u add me

Me to i like the difficulty and bears are needed again woot

this is bear country after all they do live in caves lol

I was in one group w/ 3 birds, a pally and a mage. It's key the mages use shield and rev immediately. The birds took her down pretty quickly. I died on the last hit :P

Birdie can survive un-elixired, but you gotta have no lag and pound those hp pots like a son-of-a...

I was also in a group later with 3 bears, a mage and birdie. Bears work gerat here. Again, not much of a problem, though witch can definitely down a bear or more if you let her. Scared bears who hang back do not work. Mages who don't rev immediately do not work, so shield up and run away if you have to.

Don't run past the end of the corridor. Witch-poo resets. Grrrr

Love her. Love her. Love her. So leave the witch alone! Maybe she needs a kill count though...

I thought it was cool she was in the middle and has the shields.
