He’s harder at higher levels. I killed him in elite just by running him through thermite mines before the nerf when I was around the same level as you. That doesn’t seem to work at maxed level very well post “nerf”.
I would have really liked the beast nemesis to be some kind of giant wolf made out of trees (considering Moggies a wolf, but we don’t have any actual wolf models, besides hounds). Perhaps his blood pool would be a punishment for trying to run too far, where he shadow strikes you like the manticores and lays one down with a chance to stun you if your resists are shit. Perhaps with some nice bite attacks… just playing George of the Jungle while I’m on an ugdenbloom run isn’t really fun. Neither is beating him. I’d rather fight each of the final bosses forms all at once in a constant pool of poison than Kubacabra 2: Electric Koocachoo.
