Niobium Tier High Elf vs. the Spider Boss Shelob

[Hooyaah 2,823]

Here we see once again, the devastating power of Glacial Thorns as a Boss slayer as our heroine (somewhat of an arachnophobe) confidently faces off against this very large spider boss.

Out of curiosity, how much is the value on your "trackdist_max"? Your cam is way up there!

During that video capture it was set at: cam1_trackdist_max = 2000

It is convenient to utilize the sliders to adjust the distances while in-game.

I have it below 1000, no wonder I can see such a big difference.

Though I reckon you'd have a hard time targeting individual enemies with such a distance, no?! It's great for area targeting and Area of Effect spells, but for combat I think it'd be hard to play so zoomed out.

Great battle! I see in the wiki the indications of some of her damage elements..

is she using any special attacks that lower level players should watch out for?  

I like these battles your'e putting up, it lets us get into the nitty gritty of the special boss moves when they come looking for our blood

Actually, because I am playing on a Ultra HD 44 inch TV (111.76 cm) screen at 3840 X 2160 resolution and within only about 26" (66.04 cm) from the bridge of my nose, I can see the small details quite clearly. There is also the mouse wheel to zoom way in if need be.

Well, Gogo, it is rather difficult to ascertain what tricks she might have in her arsenal when I dispatch her to spider heaven well before that nasty arachnid even knows what is transpiring. My apologies for any disappointment, kind sir.

Man, I'm playing in a screen half that size at the same distance and sometimes I just can't see the mouse cursor amidst all the freakin carnage!
