As others have said, it’s a fairly common enchant and you get the ring that provides it very often. I was watching a guy play for the first time yesterday and by the time he was halfway through the game he had four copies of the ring.
You start to lose the point you were making prior when you bring up bad points like this. Could the Crucible be better? 100%, it needs way more than it currently has to compete with games like Hades, which is what the lead dev said he wanted to do. But hard and unfair? No, you can easily get builds together that slap the crucible silly.
Here’s a few broken suggestions…
• Lightning Flurry (Melee)
• Spread Shot (Ranged)
• Any spell with multiple projectiles (avoid plague since EK is plague based)
• Blink (Most of the time EK will not know where to attack after a blink though sometimes he’ll bug out and start hitting you anywhere on the map after blinking a lot)
• Health on damage
• Focus on damage
• Medium rolling (kinda trolling on this one but you can spam medium roll and avoid EK pretty easily)
Overall there’s a ton you could be doing to have an easy time with The Crucible. What they really need to work on is better lock on, better boons, and more content.
