what's the problem? Use that hype and intercept with your specials. Problem solved.

Lose 50% of your health, and don't block attacks.

All things considered, at least its a % of health and not a fixed value like coldsnap where you'd have to heal up for it.

The heal block with the aspect of nightmares is trolling of the highest level. Everything else is just warmed-over 5.3 ish. No problemo...

Is the heal block permanent? Can champs like AV, KP, or CB shrug it off? If not use ST with KM synergy who negates bubble shield.

I am fine with that node But I think it is 50% of your maximum HP

Viper83

i mean it was fairly easy.
But why not just make a node "Lose 50% health" easy and simple

WiMak

Pretty sure it’s 50% max health but kabam has been so good about purely skill-based content lately… Unavoidable BS damage is so old school.

Out of curiosity… Domino with cable synergy; if elektra starts the fight with unlucky is there a 35% chance the degen will fail or because it happens at the beginning of the fight ability reduction has no effect? I’m not terribly concerned about this fight just curious if there is ANY counter

I didn't even read the nodes. Saw half my health go, still killed her. Not a hard fight if you have a champ with full health.

NinjaWarrior99

if it's only node than no big deal but if there are several strung together that sucks. the aspect of nightmare is based on max health so if you start the fight with less than 50% health, it kills you.

I think this is a test for act 6, just to see how far they can go with non-skill nodes... if you lose 50% of HP without having any counter, it’s becoming stupid. Maybe AV, Kingpin, lose the debuff...

That's a grey area. A game doesn't have to provide a skillful way to escape *everything*. You could argue that the node increases the amount of skill necessary to complete the content because you need to be able to deal with having only half your normal health. In fact, Nightmare + Heal Block is roughly similar in effect to permanent -100% passive armor break (in other words, cannot be removed) if you start the fight with full health. If you start with less, it is worse, so it applies a further penalty on players that have lost a lot of health before arriving to the fight.

I don't typically like those kinds of combinations, but it isn't really accurate to call them "non-skill" nodes when players with a lot of skill can get past them. That's the very definition of a "skillful" node.

Yea this and the red skull fight is straight up bs.

Just finished her UC. Used SL. Easy fight.

SpiritOfVengeance

Um this is how it's always been kabam can't come up with actual skilled champions or a.i's for us to face so they throw random non-skill based (money based) problems at you. Don't believe me? Wait for act 6.
However that team of yours should have been enough and look at your units.

That combo is designed to prevent players from simply using 20/40% revives to keep fighting.

Now they have to revive AND use health pots.

The "skill" for this is to clear the path so that you get to the boss with as much health as possible (ideally full health).

I do agree that it's a cheap mechanic to force players to spend.

DragonFire2

Benefit is that it’s on the second quest so not as high health as the other ones, so heavy hitters can finish it off pretty well.

Hypothetically speaking, suppose that node combination appeared in content where players were literally blocked from using any potions. Either you get past it with skill, or you fail. Would it then be "better?" It certainly couldn't be called a cash grab anymore.
