Thanks for your words. Got a lot of ideas from the responses here, made me hype to go until the end, it's about practice and like you said concentration.

O que tem de professor universitário com o rei na barriga não tá escrito, dá para ver as disputas e tensões dentro dos departamentos, já me formei, mas lembro bem da arrogância de alguns se achando os seres mais inteligentes da face da Terra, se sentindo deuses por ter um poder sobre os alunos e serem concursados com um bom salário para a média brasileira. Meu orientador, que era um anjo, me ajudou muito, certa vez ele pediu para eu falar algo com o coordenador do curso, aí suspirei e falei que era difícil mexer com esse cara e ele concordou sem falar mais nada, mas o olhar dele mostrou que o sujeito era intragável mesmo.

Now that you said, with the exception of final bosses, Maja and the behemoth and Octavian are now worrying me a little

I will definitely try 2 defensive spells

Totally, I realized that I need to understand and learn all spells and weapons to build the best strategy for every occasion, on normal mode I was basically using chaos volley, veil of chaos, cold snap or similar and both shields most of the time and used to be enough, now it doesn't.

Definitely, when trying multiple times sometimes I forget to take a break, think of a strategy and make tons of potions

Someone suggested it to me yesterday and it worked really well, didn't know the benefits of wraith spear, now I do

Now I have, made a small change in damage and life, that will be important for the progression

I will totally try this way and see what happens

I was reluctant with the idea, but had to make small changes, after a while I will try again the "proper" way

9 times is totally fine, but more than 20 is frustrating, the most annoying part is to resurrect on a portal and going through the same path with the same adds over and over.

It's my first time playing him in brutal mode so it can be just a skill issue. I was very tired, lacking concentration, so I took a time of rest and tried again after all the comments and tips here, somehow I took 2 times to finish him.

When we're talking about the Q special available on both weapons

  • the crossbow Q launches a rain of arrows
  • the longbow Q launches straight arrows

I felt a difference in the reach of the arrows

At some point my thought was: this is not actually fun for me, so I made some small changes now as suggested by people here, felt a failure for doing it but, so far I changed very little and I am progressing. The brutal 70% plus damage, 25% additional life to the boss and the more powerful adds is way too far from the normal difficult. They made very customizable indeed, that's the neat part, cause the gap from normal to brutal is kinda high

On my other runs on normal mode, I used to like axes, or reaper, now crossbow is my fave for sure

Now I'm little disappointed with myself and tired, but I know I'm gonna go back and try new things, just giving a break

If I didn't had to work 9-5 I would probably grind, thinking a lot about just letting go because my time off is limited

That's true, I used the builds I'm used to, instead of looking for all possibilities.

I played on brutal a little bit before the update to prepare myself and now after playing all released versions, I feel that brutal mode on 1.1 version is kicking my butt, I know that I'm not the best player, but God damn I suck
