What Are The Difficult Bosses In The First Act Of Path Of Exile 2 Early Access?
Players have already seen the bosses in the first act of the POE 2 early access version. Although these bosses are stumbling blocks on the player's road to success, successfully killing them also brings players more pride.
It has been a while since the release of POE 2 Early Access, and players have said that this is a challenging game. The biggest challenge mainly comes from the bosses in the game. These bosses have more sophisticated animation design and have also been greatly improved in mechanics design, which has been praised by many players.
However, the sophisticated changes have brought an increase in difficulty. Now if players want to successfully defeat bosses, they need to have more accurate dodge and attack time. It is also a huge challenge for players.
Although players understand the game mechanics in the first act, bosses are not so easy to defeat, and the game tutorial cannot fully teach players how to successfully kill bosses. Successfully killing a boss will not only reward players with POE 2 Divine Orbs and rare loot, but more importantly, the pride of successfully completing the game. After all, no one spends a lot of time and energy on a battle that is bound to fail.
We will introduce you to the five more difficult bosses in the first act.
1. Rust King
This is a boss that you encounter during the game, and it will attack once you have captured the last rune in Red Valley. It is the first boss that you must learn to dodge or risk being killed by a powerful attack. Thankfully, these attacks are easily telegraphed if you know how to look for them.
If you encounter a boss that is standing still with its hands raised, back away and dodge the attack as it is about to summon lightning. However, it should be noted that this boss has a lightning aura, so if you stay near it for too long, your health will be depleted. Therefore, it may be the first difficult boss that you encounter.
2. Rotten Druid
Rotten Druid is one of the most memorable optional battles in the first act, mainly because of its fungal aesthetic that helps explain the existence of fun zombies. It is also a challenging boss for players. Almost many players can't forget the difficulty of fighting with it, because it can kill low-health players with high-damage boulders.
If players want to survive in this battle, the most important method is to try their best to avoid attacks and avoid being pulled into the center of the battle, especially to avoid his barrage of explosive spore projectiles.
3. Asinia
Since Asinia, Praetor Consort and Draven, Eternal Praetor are bosses with connections in the legends and games, these connections make players unforgettable. Players must use various methods to avoid Asinia's large-scale attacks, and during the battle, she will also summon Draven to fight together, and even more hateful is that she will use some very vicious moves to attack players.
She will try to trap the player in the bone prison so that she can consume the player's health with a large amount of fire. To avoid death, the player must escape quickly. This battle can be said to bring a visual feast to players. Many players said that although the difficulty is appropriate, it is very interesting.
4. Draven
When he is retrieved to participate in Asinia fight and his health is below 66%, Draven will summon Asinia to assist. Players need to be aware that this situation is a dangerous stage of the battle. They must avoid attacks from Draven and deal with Asinia's ranged attacks.
More importantly, during the battle, Ghouls (green spirits) will appear around the arena. Once Draven absorbs them, he will gain great power. Although players can eliminate the spirits by stepping over them, as long as they appear on the grave, an eternal knight will appear, resulting in more enemies.
5. Candlemass
Players must not skip the optional boss in Ogham Manor, because the reward for killing this boss is a permanent increase in maximum health, which is really a huge temptation for players. Although this boss is not difficult to kill, players need to pay attention to its high-damage fire attack. In this battle, the most important thing is to find equipment with fire resistance, which will produce different results on the battlefield.
In fact, many players already have a basic understanding of all the bosses in the first act. This article only makes a comprehensive assessment from the aspects of difficulty, rewards, etc., and introduces the bosses that are more difficult to kill in detail.
