I'm playing a necro bone spear/corpse explo build that's perfectly suitable in like 95% of cases during my playtime in WT2. Mother's Judgment was the only problematic boss fight I've had so far and a few tries/learning her patterns sorted that out. The Brol fight leaves you with near-zero breathing room to get your shit together and launch a proper assault.

Is it just me, or is this battle near impossible with a controller? I read a write-up of the fight and he supposedly only calls in a new wave of trash mobs every 25% of his health bar, but at around 50% while I'm scrabbling to raise summons and regen mana by consuming corpses and spamming Bone Shards when possible, he keeps calling in mobs and melting my summons.

I've had him down as low as about 10%, but I've never been able to beat him on WT2 on the Steam Deck.

Also, wtf happened with controller targeting between Immortal and D4? I felt like they got it pretty much right in Immortal (the ability to choose a direction to fire a skill in) and completely ruined controller targeting in D4 (having to cycle through mobs when there are 25 on the screen is just painful and the furthest thing from fluid or fun).

EDIT (copied from a response I made in this thread): I should add I think sometimes, there’s just an insane disparity between WT1 and WT2. I melted him with almost ZERO effort after switching to WT1. It wasn’t even a challenge. Easiest boss fight I’ve ever done and that’s disappointing. He wasn’t spamming mob waves in WT1 so aggressively and I had more breathing room than I would ever need.
