Default STUPID! Accalia fight in her jungle compound

There is a big difference between a hard fight and a fight that is just down right STUPID! Accalia as "the Warrior" in her jungle compound is just such a STUPID scenario. Sure I have beaten her several times with my Barb, Ranger and Sin but she has beaten me often too. And it all seems a matter of luck. I have watched her for all the signs and have been smashed and I have just hacked away at her and won. There seems no rhyme or reason to it all. It has gotten to the point of just being annoying.

Did they change the quest because I didn't think you could actually kill her (it would reset it you got close).

Yes you are right. By defeating her I mean getting her to the 25% health where she knocks you out and runs away

Everything lost it's rhyme and reason after 1.05. Before they butchered the stat system everything seemed to actually calculate. Since then it's just been kind of a random chance. You get used to it.

Another one that gets me angry is the last boss in the Forgotten City.
Those alters of his can be glaring away when you go to touch them and then nothing hits you and at other times nothing is happening and as he pulls away it hits you for great damage. There is no way to time anything you just take your chance.

If the developers want to add interesting strategies I applaud them but not random chance and stupid deaths that you can't avoid no matter how well you get to know the scenario.

You got to wonder if the Devs even get RPGs at all with stuff like these. Let's face it, these games are pure Walter Mitty fantasy and yet time and time again the game tears that with stuff like this that just basically humilates the character.

Kind of like "meh, if we players wanted to play luzers we have our real lives for that"

On the topic of annoyingly random. In The Refuge of the Apostate timed puzzle I really hate when the spike traps activate as you are running through them. It's hard enough getting a gold chest with a guard as it is.

You are talking bout the "copper" box that I occasionally see spawn sometimes? How do you get a "Gold" box?

You do the timed puzzle faster than what you currently are

You can get copper -> silver -> gold.

I've never had a problem with this boss. The trick with the altars is that there is a time limit. You have to get to it and interrupt his channel or he hits you. It's not random at all. Maybe there is a pattern with Accalia too.
