Nerf Countess and Mephisto on lower difficulties

I find it bullshit that the Countess and Mephisto on the lowest difficulty can 1 shot you even when you come back as a much higher level character.

I came back to the first act on 8 Player as a level 47 Paladin, did the first attack that killed ALL enemies in the room.....yet the Countess did 1 retaliatory attack and it killed me instantly. I had close to 2k hp. In my opinion, that is WAY too Overpowered and should be nerfed Immediately.

Same with Mephisto on the lowest difficulty. I was battling that PoS with absolutely NO problem.....then it happened, he cheated and 1 shot me. Wtf is up with this bogus mod?

First off, playing on 8 players is a little dangerous no matter how "easy" previous acts are and you should kite any chance you get
Secondly, Countess is completely unnecessary until you get to terror and have to do the witch minigame
Thirdly, Use a Merc, it helps a lot

Mephisto cheated? Ban him.

wait till you try ultimative uber quests

once you're able to afk kill meph and countess..

This thread for real? :-?

why the hell you get 1 shot by them with p8 (never happened to me) ?!?!

If you aren't maxing your res, that's your first problem. Cap res to 75 by act 2 hatred. If you don't, you will die. Period.

Nobody is going to take your post seriously. Instead of Q_Q and nerdraging your very uninformed opinion, you could ask for tips in short questions thread.

This mod is old, with plenty of diehard veterans who know everything about this mod inside and out, who can help you man.

When you kill the Dark Watchers that hang near the Countess, they cast deathstrike. A white puddle will form underneath you when they die, move outside of that puddle quickly and the strikes won't hit you. Since there are a hand full of them just keep moving and you'll be fine.

Mephisto casts mythal frequently which reduces resistances of anything it hits(white sparkly circular pattern) - He also uses a cold spell (countdown?) that has nice aoe. These two spells together could ruin your day. Some of the minions that hang near him also use spells which deal more damage when debuffed by mythal.

Stack some resistances or adjust play-style and mephisto won't be a problem.
Killing Mephisto on P8 isn't much better than P1 and killing the countess more than once is unnecessary.
