lolol. I was waiting for someone to solo him with a monk. It is way too easy now but its a step towards the later bosses in the version so its probably fine. Yes, you can solo him when your attacks go through armor and you're a fully geared monk with shittons of armor and evasion. Just like you can solo various other world bosses later on.

Go grab your old codes, grab some of the surrounding green gear as though you never did d3 and then try solo him. Hell, try him with a team around his level and gearcheck and if its still terribly easy then maybe he does need a buff.

well.. in order to balance the voice of those who are able to overpower hill giant,
me, personally, still consider this boss is a tough one to kill.

both of my priest class has full con, along with its primary attribute.
monk = die in 2 hits.
bishop = cast mend on merc = merc dies. cast shield on merc = i die.

Actually now that i think about it. The Mercs would use the same coding as the pets for there Ai etc so i am guessing they also fall into the same part of not getting hit by the bolder skill that the boss does. If that is the case then it basicly only had to heal you since the ai auto takes it out of the aoe etc before it even tickes.

Hill Giant does not need a nerf nor a buff anymore, he is perfectly balanced. Be mindful he's the first step for players in getting new awesome gears.
