So Kaisan, the Eldritch Nemesis (who looks more like KFC XXL bucket nemesis) got insane pierce resist. And while he is doable if you are playing with Belgothian BM or Infiltrator, he is a total pain for every other Pierce build out there.
Suggestion: tone down his Pierce resistance a bit.
As well as phys res for non warlord/DK buillds
+1
Many pierce build without Belgotian sets (most powerfull single target dps) and Inquisitor mastery (word of renewal) be in pain vs Kaisan.
IM for comparison have 81 resist.
In game we have only 1 weapon vs eldrich and 1 skill.
I believe that Kaisan should have 60-70 pierce resist.
Same.Kuba’s cold resistance is a bit too much for all cold builds out there 
Infiltrator, only soft caps:
23 from Rumor
32 from Elemental storm
30 from Veil of Shadows
33 from Aura of Censure
Total: 118
Want more? Several items boost it further, ring (+10), weapon (+10), amulets (+8 - 20), relic (+10)
I don’t think there’s not much cold RR.
Meanwhile spellbreakers continued to get fucked over because Arcanist is crap and has no RR
Rude, but I laughed.
I can get behind this.
He is not a bucket himself, but he is definitely a Nemesis to them.
mageslayer set
My blademaster does ok vs him. Definitely doesn’t down him as fast as Fabius or Alex, but he’s about Iron Maiden or Kuba speeds. It’s his crystals that are the real bitch to deal with.
i guess its working as intended before zantai come and say this.
they want kaisan to be special cause of amulets he carries imo. its the only nemesis has nearly all res +63
and as far as i know he has the highest pierce res of all nemesis.
from my experience decently build pierce dw char shits on any nemesis in matter of secs, so i am fine with kaisan being abit harder
imagine not super min maxd vitality builds, even trash mobs spawn with 90 vit res, lets kaisan left on the pool for pierce build nigtmare i am fine with it.
Yeah im soulrend spellbreaker build and that set is just meh for it, the amulet has +1 infiltrator for some reason as if infiltrator hasn’t got enough love already :furious:
Also ignaffar’s combustion RR is still better than whatever nidalia’s outbreak proc does.
+1, tested belgo bm some time age, even with dmg enought for below 6 min cruci SR76 Kaisan was tooooo difficult. And when he lives long, he spawns cryctals, spawn another his shit and kill you.
Really more or less effective combo with Kaisan makes him impassable for pierce builds.
To be fair, Kaisan has even better pierce resist than super bosses. All super bosses have 95, so Kaisan must be the Ultra Boss. 
+1
Kaisan is overclocked. Also for vitality due to his stupid crystals having 90+% vit res as well
Reducing it to around 90 would be OK. But if it goes lower than that then vit should be reduced as well.
There’s a vague breakpoint for nidalla’s outperforming ignaffar’s in crucible: when your kill times on each boss are sub 3s, the added AoE (oneshot trash and some heroes) is a bigger contribution to clear speed. Though that’s something of a fringe case. Even still, the blanket + nightblade has a bigger impact than the + inquis. Really depends on what you’re using the build for and how much RR it already has.
off-topic but I would try and find +SS skill points somewhere else and put Iskandra on Soulrend Breaker. Because Iskandra is the shit for Elemental, very underrated imo.
I am farming Kaisan regularly with my phys avenger archon, he is too weak imo, should be buffed, he can’t even spawn his crystals and he is dead.
