That's why the route/location is ridiculous. I didn't say the idea of farming a boss is ridiculous. You don't have to be an asshat just because you think you know better, you know. Well, I haven't tried exactly what you described, but I've played the game enough that it didn't surprise me. It also sounds exactly like Diablo 2 and oh wait.. this game is a diablo 2 copy.. | ||

It also sounds exactly like Diablo 2 and oh wait.. this game is a diablo 2 copy.. Diablo 2 actually had a flag that is triggered the first time you kill the boss for each difficulty. One of the things the flag did was to make it so item drops from killing that boss beyond the first time were not as good. Torchlight 2 doesn't seem to have that same anti-boss farming system, as far as I can tell. Also, I'm not really sure what boss you're referring to in Diablo 2 that is this accessible... | ||

I didn't realize that tele could consistently get you to the bosses, from reset, in 5 clicks or less and two loading screens (for about 5 secs of time depending on how fast your computer is). | ||

Pindle runs were pretty fast (~30 seconds total). Found a random youtube example. | ||

Nope, that's Hell difficulty. You can tell because of the monster immunities. | ||

Level 32. Decided to head to a 35 zone where you have to stay inside that circle of light or you get hurt. The stupid blades that emerge from the ground dealt so much that I couldn't teleport. | ||

Just make sure you pay attention to the patterns of the blades, and be overleveled for that particular level. | ||

1 - physical attacks cause the tars to replicate 2 - the bosses can heal themselves from tar corpses 3 - stepping on the tiniest tar blobs seem to reduce the total tar count so the best strategy seems to be focusing on a single tar boss until the tar minion count gets too high then aoe them with poison daggers (do not use regular attacks for this!). Wait for the poison to kill the minions, then step on as many tiny tar blobs as possible, then repeat. the key is to use physical attacks as LITTLE as possible as they seem to multiply the tar minion count significantly, which ultimately ends up healing the bosses significantly. jesus that took forever to figure out! | ||
