Playing on Normal... We just put down our first Seer Lord in the Tower of Loss.... With that big lead up, I was expecting him to be much harder than he was... He didn't have any curse to cast, or at least refrained from casting them if he did. For the first 3 turns off the battle, he just stood there, not summoning anything, casting ranged attacks, etc, he just watched us cut down his troops before attacking with pretty ineffective attacks.
I want to see these guys summoning hoards of skeletons, he needs a crazy powerful curse, a boost to his accuracy... Honestly I had more issues with his Necromancer than I did with him... Also he needs more Necromancers. Maybe even a secondary boss alongside him like a super Necro...
I'm sure he is an absolute terror on higher difficulties, but I really didn't fear him like I wanted to. He had a ton of troops at his disposal, but once they were gone it was a simple task of dispatching him. Maybe if he is the only one left, he could summon a brand new hoarde of enemies- he was laying on a MASSIVE pile of bones, after all...
It was a good fight, don't get me wrong, the lead up was epic, and he did try once he started to actually do things. This episode is really getting good now that we see what we're really up against- really great job so far!!

@en1mga - sorry to hear that. He and his brethren have some of the most impressive summoning and attack spells in the game, as well as the best stat rolls. Sounds like he spent his few turns badly.
Also, ... Normal.

Bah it's all good, fallen- maybe he just wasn't ready for my group I guess I'm just a masochist, asking for the hardest enemies in the game to be harder ... I'll just chalk it up to him being over confident in his summoned army, not expecting Vincent to come out with LS 10 hitting a full 10 targets with each go...

Well, it's normal. My group on normal often have enemies that can't even move. Which sometimes looks like if they have strategic advantage and just lie in ambush. But sometimes not.

I'm ready, John Robinson- there hasn't been anything in the CoD yet that's really challenged Kinetic Energy, so I'm excited to see what the final battle has to offer

En1gma - lol, yes ... on Normal, with a pro-tuned group. Play on a harder difficulty We can't make Normal monsters harder for players like you.

fallen- It might come to that. After I make my way through the content, I'll probably move up... I've just played for so many hours I forget that some of my groups belong in higher difficulties
