Grim Dawn Ideas and Feedback

Well i’m not using any OP build, but i encountered this guy twice on my profile. Both instances were on Elite. I killed him since i pretty much figured out he was nearby from the sound of SS.

Ever since then i sometimes roam around Act IV trying to search for him, problem is his spawn rate seems to have been reduced greatly. I get it there are far greater challenges in the game (Nemesis, Log, Shar’Zul, Mad Queen, Sentinel) but i feel like this guy also deserves to be up there.

I have two solutions:-

  1. Make him a Unique boss and have him spawn in a particular zone

  2. Let him stay a Hero Boss, but fix his spawn points and make him guaranteed spawn per session

2

He already has a guaranteed spawn in the Plaints of Strife.

3

Great. Can you tell me where? because i’m fairly certain i cleared the entire area 2-3 times on Ultimate a while back.

4

Always find him next to the Aether Scar ground aoe corner.

5

I’m pretty sure i always clear that corner but will check again, thanks

6

He only spawns at the aether ground patch in plains of strife. It’s only a chance to spawn though.

7

Ah, so i guess i might’ve had bad luck. I cover that area specifically due to low mob density and higher amount aether crystals (compared to the rest) on those damaging floors

Ty everyone

P.S
It’s seems unlikely, but i use a lot of CC. I’m not going to ask if it’s possible he’d have died from it. My question is that if such a possibility exists, then has he been nerfed?

8

What? Are you asking if your CC killed him? Or if the Aether Ground killed him?

Loxmere’s weakness has always been CC. That’s why I’ve always contended that he’s always been balanced, despite successive nerfs.

9

You mean successive buffs right? Because he was nerfed like two times and the first time he was nerfed he was then immediately buffed in the next hotfix.

10

I don’t think Aether Ground kills our enemies.

And yes, i do meant my CC killing him. I find it unlikely since he can simply use SS and Nulify, but i did consider it might be possible if he had been nerfed.

11

Just fought this prick and he had Reaver’s Claw equipped.

Well i went looking for him and this time the screen was relatively clean. So when he SS’d to me and removed my buffs i knew it was him. Didn’t hit me hard i am at 7k something hp and he probably did 1k or something. I hit him with poison and was about to make my retreat when he dropped dead.

The only reason i was interested in farming him was because of various threads i read about people getting slaughtered. I’m kinda sad they super-nerfed him. The Aetherial Amalgamation like creature that erupts from the ground when you destroy peculiar looking Aether Crystals hits harder imo.
