EDIT // Oh, and I apologize if I've posted too much! This sub moves a little slow, so I don't want to seem spammy!
So, it's time for a break, that's for sure.
I decided to stop recording my attempts at this fight because it was getting so tiring between all the failed tries. I ran from this fight at least 100 times, I'd guess. I'm honestly surprised I won at all.
Despite farming over 1000 scraps for an Umbral bow with good stats, I ended up going with this rather insane legendary for pure damage. My Chest piece definitely should have been crafted for 3k+ Defense and over 1.5k VIT, which I saw many drop with those stats (but Heavy, which is no good!)
My Charm also could have had a better prefix, but those stats were hard to beat.
My Shield was pure trash. I'd seen ones drop with double 1000's, so I know if I farmed I could have found one. Having a Heavy one would have done wonders as well for that 10% Total DEF boost.
To be honest, I was really sick of crafting. I must have made over 1000 items on this character alone -- it is draining.
This fight was TOUGH AS NAILS.
Between Poison and Bleed, I pretty much relied on the RNG to dodge EVERY SINGLE ATTACK. If I got hit, and I wasn't in position to Heal or Reposition, I ran. I was not able to take a hit + the DoT's + a chance at another hit. I'd be dead twice over.
I used my Guardian in about 75% of attempts, but at one point it was just leaving me in a bad position every time, so I stopped.
Next up is the 6 elemental paths before the Eternal Guardian, but to be frank, I'm not sure this character is capable. I'll need pretty much perfect gear in every slot, with double four-digit stats and proper prefixes.
To even get through Path of Light is... a joke.
I don't think I have it in me. Maybe after a few days off, or starting some other characters with fun challenges, I'll begin crafting/gear farming for the final attempt.
I'm curious to see what happens at the true end.
Oh, and just a fun fact but within the 55ish hours I have on this character, I have not unlocked a single Adornment or found an Ascendant!

I don't think I've ever seen a better geared character! :D
:D Haha, well that's the result of speed crafting for hours on end. Literally!
I do wish getting a prefix you wanted was somewhat less RNG-dependent, though. Cough hinthint cough. ;)
Thanks for the game, that said -- it's been an enjoyable journey so far. I definitely have some personal challenges in mind. Unarmed is next I think!
Here's someone we can get inspired in to design new achievements!!
