I wanted to thank everyone that responded to my last post. Everyone gave good advice, and hearing that everyone hit a wall they had to just grind through helped a lot.
Took my sorceress and mixed things up. Didn’t focus on one element, and tried to match attributes in the skill tree instead of elements. Still have hydra as my main focus, but I rely very heavily on chain lighting and frost nova. I was actually able to finish act II.
Again, thank you all for the awesome words. You guys a super swell!
My experience with the capstone was that the dungeon itself was pretty easy but Elias was a one-shot killing machine. It took me about 7 tries to kill him, basically I just learned all his moves and how to dodge them and kept at it until I got a good run at him.
Yeah, I just beat capstone yesterday and pretty much had the same impression as you. Elias’s attack damage is crazy compared to the rest of the mobs in the dungeon, except maybe for those shouts from the elite…barbarians (forgot what they were called)?
I ended up just doing a few reknown completions for the paragon points and dipped a whole bunch of them into extra maximum life. After that I could tank Elias’s hits just fine.
