Poinas, do you know by any chance what resistance resists Manticore's double claw stomp attack?

The skill is called "Pounce"in the editor.

The skill has 20 levels. At lvl 1/20 it does 438/2095 poison damage. The duration is 2 seconds.

It does 50 dmg at level 1 and 150 dmg at level 20 with piercing ratio of 15%.

I just don't know which lvl of the skill it has. I'll try to dig up that info.

EDIT: Apparently Manticore gets +95% total damage in legendary, and anohther +100% total damage for being a boss.

So it would do 360-425 physical, 64-75 piercing and 6180 poison dmg over 2 seconds.

Right. That explains why it kills so fast. So poison resistance is needed for that then.

So if let's say I get 80% poison resistance, only 20% of that killer poison damage would go, right? So that's somewhere just over 1200 damage. Gosh, that is still not that little, considering there's also physical and piercing on top of that.

Thanks, mate.

I'm only farming epic overlord's but it appears that nate is really susceptible to freeze. I have Demeter's(sp?) Sorrow and after about 30 runs it really seems like freeze procs on him a ton more than anyone else, and you can just take a small portion of his life to account for it. I don't mean more per kill, since obviously having a lot of life means more procs, but I mean PPM (proc per minute).

He was really hard on normal, because when his head is flaming he hits really hard, but since I got a freezing weapon on epic, he's a joke (never attacks).

One question: If you kill Toxeus, will he appear randomly again?

Yes he will. It's just an extremely rare encounter outside of Secret Passage.

Hi, I'm a level 17 Brigand and am right now stuck with Megalesios. I am entirely out of health potions and getting enough new ones would mean fighting my way back through the labyrinth to that trader at the start. I tried setting up a lot of traps and avoiding his damage, but he gets me anyway, and I can't seem to land him any damage. What should I do?

You can portal out to a town to buy potions again.
