what can we do to mitigate / block / not die to bosses like the one in Villa ?

I`m lv 80, 3k hp, 75% all rez, lv 18 AA, Ruby flask and still I die in 2 seconds to that bastard. I was unable to kill him.
Fire traps are just.... ffs.

Head down and get Iron Reflexes and Mind Over Matter. When you get MoM respec the projectile nodes into the mana ones and then get the life near MoM and Purity of Flesh up in the top left of the tree.

I've tried but I can't respec the four projectile nodes. :( It's seems you can't respec that branch, you must respec all the nodes before or after and that's a lot of nodes...

Am I doing something wrong?

(Sorry if this has been mentioned before, haven't read the whole thread)

Can't believe this causes problems for people. You just need to respec out of 4 RANDOM nodes to get the mana regen and 3 mana nodes and then you can respec out of the projectile nodes and put them back where you had those 4 before. Your alloced nodes need to be CONNECTED TO THE STARTING POINT OF SCION one way or another (this is why you can't respec out of projectile nodes unless you have another connection point), can't have them just randomly in your tree.

Maybe a stupid or noobish question but why can't i respec the project nods in passive tree?

probably because there is no link left to your starting position if you'd do that.

hmm strange, cause am following Ziggy D his guide en he says "Head down and get Iron Reflexes and Mind Over Matter. When you get MoM respec the projectile nodes into the mana ones and then get the life near MoM and Purity of Flesh up in the top left of the tree."

Able to run Hatred, Discipline, Grace, Clarity, Tempest shield, and Maintain a level 18 AA (can maintain 20 with mana leach) all the time.

My gear

5.1k life, 3.6k mana, 9k armor, 80 all resist with ~800 mana left over for MoM
EK damage is ~7.2k atm but will be closer to 8k as gems level up before Ming's heart


I'm experimenting with Tempest shield + blind + The Anvil with Saffells for insane spell block since elemental damage is what kills people most of the time. AA deals with most physical damage, and 9k armor is enough to take big hits. I think a Rathpith in the long run would be the way to go for dual block chance with some more mana and damage. Super tanky none the less, I can pretty much faceroll all content.
