He was the easiest boss, I'd go and kill him pretty much all the time on all my characters. Today for some reason the fight took >30 minutes. He now has at least 15 physical DR plus % immunities and more regen or something. If I didn't have divine damage on my weapons I don't think it would have actually been possible for me to kill him. I know my weapons hit for more then 15 damage, so why in the world am I suddenly unable to damage him? I don't know what changed but I really feel like something changed. I've killed this guy on pitt at least 50 times and it never takes more then a few rounds. What the fuck happened? edit; 16 str, weapon spec, +5 weapon. Never actually damaged him physically short of a crit, and then it was just divine damage. Even with 15 dr that should not be. |

As far as I'm aware, the Fire Giant King has not been modified in any way. |

Ok, I have no idea then. But Usually that guy fails a save vs blind in the first few rounds, but suddenly now, because im no longer able to do physical damage to him, he never has to make the save, and I can't kill him. Seriously, I was fighting him for so long his true sight buff wore off long after the queen despawned. This never ever ever happens like this. Something had to have changed, I kill him all the time. |

I've known some DMs to buff up bosses to make them more challenging for players (Not insanely OP, but just enough to require more than click-and-slash. |

As the only DM on, and a lot of people in my event to vouch for me, I definitely haven't been buffing any mobs. Commie could you send some combat logs if possible? We'll pass it to the dev team. |

Yeah http://i.imgur.com/0OiuGBu.png This snippet of the log was from after his TS buff ended and I dropped a darkness and he was able to get sneak-attacked. What happened exactly? Can his DR go back to what it was? Seriously, I kill the king all the time. It's my farming spot. I do it on pitt all the time. It does not take me 30+ minutes to do it. |

Oh and his 'regen' seemed off because at the beginning of the fight and after he healed he would keep going back 'up in health, I saw 'uninjured' many times before I started making leeway. |

He's always been that resistant iirc. I avoid him on my dexers unless they have good damage because it takes so long to power through |

There's no percentage immunities being used in the screenshots, just his DR. I haven't fought him awhile or really paid attention, but I do know he's alwyas had some degree of DR. It's possible he just never failed a blind save so you never got your sneak attack damage. |

Long enough for his queen to de-spawn and true sight to fade naturally. I just really feel like if this was possible I'd have noticed given how many times I've farmed this guy solo. |

Well no matter how often you farmed him, eventually he will roll a 20 on your blinding, and clearly, he did this time. Nothing was changed at least. |
