It appears so that the new Uber Ancients are harder than Uber Tristram. But it is really just a matter of the right gear and skills to confront them.starskyj wrote: 2 hours ago
In patch 3.2 they drastically buffed colosal ancients their the hardest content in the game now literally 5x harder than ubers. The ancients damage was drastically buffed along with their survivabiity, they can easily kill a lvl99 bound demon, that was bound with a lvl 50 Bind Demon skill. So after the nerfs and the massive damage nerf of basically a 66 percent damage nerf to bound demon in patch 3.3
With the Uber Ancients, you really have to prioritise defense.
Get at least 85% better 95% fire, cold and lightning resistances. Guardian Angel is the Key item here. Exile and/or Dracul's Grasp are great, too, like in Uber Tristram. Get 285 or 295 fire, cold and lightning resistances in total because each Uber Ancient has a "Convition" aura of -100 to his element. And hell difficulty also has a -100 "debuff". Poison res does not matter at all. The paladin's Salvation aura is great and much better here than Fanaticism.
Flat elemental damage reduction or absorb is also a good idea (fire: Dwarf Star, cold: Raven Frost, lightning: Thundergod's Vigor).
With this defensive setup and a CTA, the Uber Ancients' damage is "managable." Then you "just" have to find a way to deal damage. Smiter with Grief and Crushing Blow items ( Guillaume's Face and Goblin Toe) is still king here. For amulet I use The Cat's Eye to hit the fastest attack speed breakpoint but there are many other options, too.
