It’s worse than that. The actual way to be real is to pray the games RNG decides to let you I can one shot her. My resistance is Capt and my armor is Capt and I just randomly die to unavoidable unpredictable one hit attack attacks.
I have been playing this game since Beta. I have never been successful. I saw this video pop up and decided to give it another try. I can finally say that I've beaten her, and I'm one step closer to my first Mythic. This working-class dad with 37 kids thanks you.
i got killed like 55 times trying then I watched your video and it took me like 15 runs to perfect my routine and I finally finished her off. Thanks Rax - ur the man.
I killed Lilith during the vampire season with my twisting blades rogue. I died over 70 times before i killed her. But the feeling was out of this world. And i haven't taken off the Lilith's Doom title since. This season, i've killed her 2 times with my barrage rogue and honestly what killed me 9/10 was the mechanics at phase 2. I had so much trouble dodging those small blue orbs following you lol
A useful trick is to equip a necklace with maxed out movement speed and extra movement speed temper for phase two, it really helped me on my rogue. There’s enough time between phase 1 and 2 to swap your amulets from your inventory. Also remember to dash and evade if those flying things are catching up to you. I killed her very easily with my Andariel’s poison barrage rogue.
Yeah I just killed her with my barrage rogue as well and like you blue orbs were the problem for me. so hard to see those little shits amidst the chaos. i think it is because i panic a lot lol.
Appreciate it, Raxx! Lilith was the only Tormented boss I couldn't kill--I'd easily get her to that last tick of health on the second wave and got hit by the ground mechanics every time. Once I watched your video, I died twice more until I got the hang of it, and then just super easily killed her and got my last of the free Resplendent Sparks. Cheers and thanks!
Yeah he is totaly right about that, when he started doing lilith carrys at the start of the season i watch him do it 2-3 times, just went in there and did it. First time since S1 i coud do it. i never tryed that hard because its not worth it, but S5 everybody with any build can do it. And even if you struggle 4-5 times, just come back later and try again, it was never that easy to do it yourselfe.
The hardest part is that the visual cues are confusing. When the platform is starting to break off, it turns red and you think you are suppose to avoid it, but you actually have to run onto it first.
i feel this so much. i've watched raxx's other video and one other person's video on the mechanics and the problem is in the fight they come SO FAST and they're almost invisible. Like those stupid one-shot waves that cover 90% of the screen give you about 1 second to react to them, and they project on the ground so fast i can't tell which way the waves are going. I'll give it a go again after watching this video and i'll try a few times to follow this strategy but if i can't do it even then I'm just gonna chalk it up to a skill issue and figure its not for me. I hate how many one-shot mechanics d4 has. Feels like they didn't learn from d3 on that front. At least in d2 the super dangerous things were crazy obvious (e.g. souls shooting BRIGHT WHITE lightning all over the place)
I agree that the visuals are definitely weird in this fight. Especially if you are playing a build with many ground effects/minions, etc, that clutter the screen. Those make it very hard to see where it is safe even if you know exactly how mechanics work.
The main problem is player power and damage is so high, people are able to skip nearly the entire fight, not learning anything and half the time, not even being aware of the torment debuff stacks that get put on the player. Players should learn which attacks give debuff stacks, but when you can just skip right to the end of the fight with no thought at all, inexperienced players aren't even aware of what's going on. Honestly, players shouldn't be able to just instantly nuke her and go right to the 3 platform breaks, they should actually have to engage with all of the mechanics and the fight should take 3-5 minutes imo. She is so braindead easy now for me once geared up, there's zero challenge left.
@@WingZeroType None of her attacks can 1-shot anymore... They changed that last season. You have to repeatedly fail mechanics aka get hit by specific attacks to build up a debuff on your character, that increases the damage taken the more debuff stacks you build up. Also, ALL of her attacks have a tell and a sign on what's coming. They really aren't invisible or a surprise if you actually learn the fight and pay attention.
This helped me get past the first phase. Thanks! Unfortunately this fight still highlights the need for a DPS build to outright avoid the stacking damage she does. There were a few times in Phase 1 where so many "death waves" were spawning they could not be avoided and the stacking damage took hold. After reaching Phase 2 she started spawning some sort of vortex that sucked me directly into the the "death orbs" and other sundry attacks and spawns. Sigh. Done for now. I understand this is meant to be a challege but this feels like a memorization and reflexes test rather than a test of a build to see if it can both defend and attack. Sorry. Ranting. Thanks again for the fight tips. They helped.
There is only 1 solution for having an easy fight here. Do more than 50 million dps with your build. So you can skip phase 1 and phase 2 at the start of the phases and only have to do the plattform game at the end.
@@lordad Very true. I guess that is what I find so egregious. Were it not for the stackng damage it would be a difficult fight for the average player but still something an Off-Meta build could manage. The Tormented versions I would expect to be considerably tougher for those players using fully optimized Meta builds. Ranting again. Thanks for the comment.
I'm doing ludicrous damage but couldn't get through the bullet hell. Hopefully thanks to this vid I can do it today! EDIT: just did it!!! Thanks Raxx, it definitely helped! 😁😁
I don’t know if you’ve attempted her at all. Majorly of players who play 1+ hour a day can have a build which kills here before the first platform break. It’s the mandatory mechanics that’s fully bullshit.
with my bash barb last season, i made millions of damage per hit, have enough res armor and life. I can easily burn p1 after a min or 2 (depending on the scripting of the game). Then nuke her on p2, until she starts destroying the platform and her shooting those white projectiles. If you do not know how to evade her attacks in p2, it will one shot you
@@liuby33 why are they bullshit? Anyone can kill her. All you need is 1. Decent DPS 2. Enough move speed to outrun the orbs and 3. Actually know what you're doing in the fight
I finally beat her thanks to this video. Her first phase is troublesome if you can't down her early before she does the circle wall thing, because she jumps very quickly again. So I masterworked my gear to 8, the weapon to 12. That downed her quickly. In the second phase your pathing is key to get the fireballs under control. I died often to them not noticing them. The pathing makes this phase more like a rythm game. Thank you raxx, you helped me a ton
AWESOME Guide! Just started playing this season 6 and really appreciated the step by step assistance! was rushing trough it but who knew walking around was easier.
you didnt even showed the strongest abilities. if you cant oneshot her in the first phase she does a lot more wave attacks which are harder to avoid. this guide is helpful for really strong builds but not for builds who arent able to skip her phases.
@@Viz79 He mapped out her attack patterns, that's really all you need. His videos are optional, change the channel if you think he is sloppy. He goes out of his way to help the community •in game•. Honestly if you need more than the attack pattern map the issue isn't his guide, it's you as the player not running a basic run of the mill blizzard saftey dance which has been is nearly all their games since D1. Don't stand in stupid= victory.
No kidding, I tried to kill Lilith in S4 about 150 times, never successfully. Always died when she broke the top right platform. Watched this in S5 (this morning), hopped on my Landslide druid (well geared with the proper mythics, but most of my gear is 0-1GAs on), and crushed it on the first attempt. Thanks!
I've never even seen the platform break. Usually I burn her till she start spawning adds and then I'm just dodging the stacking one-shot kills for next ten to fifteen minutes until my internet has a hiccup and I die. I literally don't know how to get past this part because she just seems invincible.
after 40 trys I searched for a guide and there was you with a perfect strategy and I got her down after 5 trys and I noticed the movementspeed aspect carries, too. I had 136% and after changing some stats I got 168% and made the fight even easier. Thank you so much Raxx!
I mean he has maxroll gear in every slot and is playing the broekOP class of the season. which blizzard still hasn't figured out how to balance classes in 2024. how old is this franchise now, 30 years?
You da man, Man! I was running Lightning Spear this season (the game kept shoving the gear at me even though I was looking for something else, LOL) and I could easily burn Uber Lilith down to a sliver, but the phases were kicking my butt. This video got me my spark. Thanks!
subbed. that was way way way way too good of an explanation. i had no IDEA what that 2nd phase was about since i'm colorblind af. all i did was do the circle thing and dodge like you said. holy crap you're amazing. thank you thank you thank you
I feel like all the builds that are required to “easily kill Lilith” actually require mythics themselves. Am I mistaken? Maybe I’m reading the builds wrong.
@@Whelp140 lol why you here then? If you've learned nothing from this streamer then it's a you problem. His example here might not be the best but you can definitely kill lilith or any tormented boss without mythics. You just have to know what you're doing. And there's plenty of guides out there, whether it's build/farming/leveling. Just like Raxx and his videos.
@@nine9_abyss because I love the videos and I've been following him for years now the problem is you can't tell me where the straight face that 90% of these bills that require mythics all the ones that get posted where they're like do this it's so easy
Well you dont require Mythics but you need insane damage. This video is only helpfull for people who can allready clear PIT 90+ and kill Uber Tormented Duriel Solo in less than 1 minute.... he does so much damage that he basically skips the whole fight... and only explains the after Lilith health is 0 plattform mechanics
My first Lilith kill this season was with a level 97 with no mythics, no masterworked gear, no level 21 glyphs, and missing several uniques for my build. Build guides show you the perfect gear with the perfect rolls/tempers/masterworks/greater affixes so you know what to work towards. These aren't minimum requirements in order to make the build work. Just give it a go. Lilith is not that hard any more.
Very rarely do I comment on youtube, but have to hand it to you Raxx. ALL the other guides were so useless I was almost going to give up on fight. Watched this vid and did it 1st time. Thank you so much ;)
You've posted how to beat her before, as have others - but this was brief and to the point. MUCH appreciated man, thank you. I actually feel confident I can finally beat her for my platinum trophy this season, that's been bugging me since the game came out.
Raxx is the gift that keeps on giving! I haven’t fought Lilith since the campaign at launch and I wasn’t aware of the one-shot mechanics until I tried this season. My SB would nuke her at the beginning of each phase and then I would just die for no apparent reason lol Thanks Raxx!
Thanks man, we literally just defeated her for the first time ever. Most guides were based on the fight before the insta-kill projectiles, so we got smoke many times before we came across your video. Thanks.
Thank you Raxx, this made me finally understand the fight. I had more than enough damage, but I was confused with the mechanics. Made the kill easily now when I saw your drawings and explanation
Thank you for this guide, Raxx. I did it on my first try after watching this. Not only was I able to do it, I also carried two of my friends together. Those shadow bullet thingies were the only things killing me. This guide made it super super easy to avoid that.
@@madspice1663 yes, got the exact copy of all the items in the build guide (not the same stats ofc but close)... Raxx just pressed 1 orb and she got 25% of her HP pool down... I have to stand there for 30 secs and mash buttons like mad if I want to bring her health down before she starts to jump... from what Raxx has it seems he could do that in 5 - 10 secs with his damage
Check your masterworking crits. It’s not enough just to have all the gear, you need to reset and redo masterworking until you have enough CDR to just spam Lightning Spear. I have 12/12 with all the right triple crits for CDR on Shako and Tal Rasha’s, and Lilith is trivial to kill. For both phases, I get her down to zero HP in less than five seconds and the thing that then takes time is to run around avoiding the flying stuff while she goes through her phase 2 mechanics to completion. Oh and make sure you use a Fists of Fate with lots of lucky hit to stagger her quickly, the actual aspect’s value on FoF doesn’t matter since splintering aspect ignores it and that’s where we do our damage. Even minimum roll is okay as long as you have at least 50% lucky hit. Ideally you want a GA on lucky hit and then crit it further through masterworking
@@zaoshikung2756 yep, same here... can do T8 bosses, but its not easy, they have a chance to 1 shot me with something, mostly their hydra spawns can do that T7 feels totally easy compared to T8, I can feel my damage not being high enough
Mr. Rax, I cannot thank you enough for this. I have been easily damaging Lilith down but could not figure out for the life of me how to avoid these instant kill effects. I feel like I was playing an old school platform game again; and you were my older cousin. Peace
I have a barrage rogue, 8/12 and in some cases 12/12 master worked and simply was lost as to what to do phase 2. I can do T7 hordes fairly easily. I can do the bosses on Tormented I’ve tried but she’s been my bane. I’ll try this today and see how it goes. 🤞🏻 Not a chance in hell. Without the 1B dps you have your method doesn't work. This is the typical out of touch with what "casual" or "normal" players have compared to what streamers have logic. I appreciate the effort, but for 90% of the people this guide isn't useful because we don't have the DPS and we have to dodge 97 waves and mechanics perfectly or get one shot. Will this work? Yes, if we play perfectly for 200x longer than you did. 15 tries, zero chance to actually beat her because my DPS as a normal player just has no chance to burn her down before I make a mistake and get killed. Yeah, "don't make a mistake" sorry I'm human, not a bot. Still can't beat her. To suggest there aren't more mechanics then you say is wrong. You literally said "run around like a chicken with your head cut off" that's an AMAZING guide tip. The fact everything damaging or not damaging is red or.. red is a shit design. Having no idea where it's safe to stand and where it isn't is simply lazy developing. They can't make it hard so they just make it cluttered and confusing. I can basically one shot her life, I can survive getting hit by the chasing orbs but specific things just one shot you and that's a crap game mechanic made by lazy devs.
I had never invested enough time in any Season before the expansion to kill Uber Lilith. With the changes to progression though, I decided to give it a proper try, especially since she's now accessible in T1. Attempted it, did good damage, but ultimately kept dying over and over no matter how hard I tried. Looked at some (honestly poor) guides and still felt clueless until I found your guide. The way you explain both conceptually and visually so clearly is a huge part of why you're the best ARPG content creator out there. Thanks Raxx!
Don't EVEN THINK ABOUT killing Lilith with a Thorn Barb. You've Negative chance to even inflect a little bit of damage on her and that's when she's hitting you personally. The rest of the time? You're DOA.
Thanks Raxx ! I finally beat her on my own, my heart is bouncing in chest and my hands are shaking a.f. but i did it!! ❤🎉 So much love for the help you do every time in your streams and vids ! Keep up the job 👏🏼
The issue is you need the mystics just like necro but with the starter character without mystics you cannot kill torment bosses without help, so if you are solo the endgame is limited and frustrating
Hey Rax, just wanna say thanks for this video, I’m a solo lightning spear and with around 30 attempts I beat her for the first time today and after a few uber bosses I got my first ever mythic drop. I’m in my 30’s and feel like a kid again and you’re a part of that, anyway thanks for all the videos and the effort you put in.
Thank you for the encouragement. Still took like 10 times but I got it. It’s also worth telling people that even if you kill her in phase 2 before she destroys the platform she doesn’t die u til after the platform has been destroyed. She has just a sliver of health.
Thanks Raxx, I got her in Season 5 for my first time with a Druid because of your training in this video. I appreciate it, it's been bothering me, great video. Raxx is the hero to us causal Dad gamers.
what buffles me: the 'attack power' on this Sorc is like 12k and Lilith health is melting. My WW-Barb has 50k attack power without berserk and is barely hurting her. attack power obviously means nothing? He also has 70k life, yet he's dying quickly with max res and armor
have a fireball sorc and can't even get her to the first tick health orbs on her first phase.. and i can do tier 5 hordes. I honestly don't know how to even progress now
@@chunkyrobomunkyI have fireball, love the build and don't want to switch. Why is there one build so much better than everything else. Blizzard should balance a bit first week of the season to have more build diversity.. but no of course it's more fun when 80%+ of people are running same class and build in the endgame
Dont even think about trying Lilith if you dont do at least 50million dps..... your single fireballs should hit for at least 7million before you can zerg her down fast... i tried it with my 5 Million DPS Fireball Sorc that can also do T5 Horde easily and clears PIT 55 and killed Tormented Duriel Solo.... but 0 chance vs Lilith.... then i tried my Andariel Poison Rogue with 75million dps and deleted her easy. This boss is a pure DPS check
Thank you, I just soloed my first ever Uber Lilith thanks to your clear explanations of the various mechanics, which to the casual untrained eye (mine) appear totally random when you're just getting hit by them for no apparent reason. Now I know why I was being hit, and how to avoid it!
Hey, Raxx. Thanks for this great guide. I just killed Uber Lilith with my andy rogue and this really helped. I managed to avoid most of the Phase 1 mechanics with just high DPS facetanking, but your description of Phase 2 was spot on. Only took about 10 tries after I got fully geared up.
I tried a bunch of times to beat her. This guide helped me get further along in the fight, but I kept getting hit by those fireballs in the 2nd phase. Then one time she only spawned a few of those, then stopped. I didn't have to worry about them the rest of the fight and I finally got her. Very odd, I have no idea what happened, but I guess I'll take it. Thanks for the tips!
omg finally after probably more than 100+ failed attempts, I finally beat her! Thank you for this guide, you did help greatly and I gave you a thumbs up...but I will say that despite my Druid being able to easily Solo any tormented boss, I had a lot of difficulty in Phase 1 of Lilith & I found it much more challenging than depicted in your guide. I could not just stand at the bottom and dodge her attacks vertically, had to move more and sometimes they came from the sides...Phase 2 of your guide really helped me though and I found that part easy once I memorized the pattern you explained, Thanks!
Thanks Rax!! I just killed her for my first time tonight! So stoked, some of the most fun and challenging content in D4 I’ve engaged with: Super enjoyable! Thanks again!!
Thank you so much for such an informative video Raxx. I have been stuck trying to kill her each season and came across your video. Then figured I would give it a go and took her right out. Again thank you!
Thanks for this Raxx. I never figured out the platform part of P2 and having to wait for it to drop to the last one. That last invincibility phase she has before it happens has been the sole reason I gave up many times before.
Oh My goodness thankyou Rax! None of the other guides I have seen really broke down how to actually dodge so much of that fight! Just 'Hey don't get hit, its easy!'. Took me like 5 tries after watching this!
Hey Rax. Long time listener. Great work mate! Great video. This strat works well. I kept dying, but once I increased my speed a little (150 min recommended), it worked perfectly! Thanks again.
My build is not able to burn her down as fast but I was still able to solo her (thank you Raxx). Once I stopped worrying about the adds in phase 1 I was able to clear it much easier. I would make myself unstoppable when she slammed back into the ground which helped get more DPS on her and then just cleaned em up and those red pods they spawn. Phase 2 is easy once you follow this. Thanks again
Hands down the best explanation on Uber Lilith kill in season 5. Didn't know those small orbs were so deadly even though i have a super tanky build. The run around the edges is bang on, though timing has to be almost perfect. Was able to kill her in 3 tries.
Thank you, nice guide! One thing I want to highlight: you NEED movement speed for this fight, you simply can't avoid some attacks (ie fireballs) without 150% speed
Just wanted to say thank you for the video Raxx, I watched this video yesterday then went home and crushed Lilith for the 1st time (1st tried in her Season 4, with OP bash barb to no avail), with my Frozen Orb sorc after about 20 attempts. Feels good to get all the sparks on my own now
Thanks Raxx, very helpful. Please pass along to devs that if I need to watch a video to understand what exactly killed me instantly a dozen times then they have failed game design basics.
thx. finally got her, mostly because of this guide. the one thing that wasn't clear to me is whether you could burn her down in phase 2. once i stopped trying to dps -- even with stagger! -- until after all the platform breaks, i could stay alive well and take her down when she was done with all that. i will say it really helps to have the sheer firepower to get right through phase 1. but i could do that with blood mist last season and still not survive phase 2.
10 hours after watching this I decided to try, just vaguely remembering the concepts and got her on the first try. LOL! Thanks! (Although I already had the spark from you carrying me on stream, which got me what I needed to craft a shako and become strong by farming T7/T8 hordes!)
I didn’t get it right away and had to eventually make a an amulet for movement speed because my Druid was out of shape but this actually worked. I was saying the same things out loud as you “don’t go down up. I’m just walking anyone can do this , don’t just run there wait now go in “ lol thanks a lot. Done it multiple times now and helped my friends too
Been enjoying, and using your tips, tricks and builds for years. Ty for breaking mechanics and builds down brother. Lets me get the most out of limited game time. I'm grateful the time I got to relax isn't spent learning mechanics but putting them to use. You make good games, that wouldn't be playable with less time to play, actually enjoyable.
Thanks, Rax!!! Had my first Lilith Kill today thanks to your video. I watch you all the time and your skills and knowledge are super helpfull. Keep going :)
Thanks, man. Not only did this video make the fight sensible enough for me to finally finish it today, but it was so good I did it completely drunk. Well done, sir.
My buddies and I tried every evening for an hour or two the last couple of days and nothing. Watched your video half an hour later she's down. Such simple tips yet so powerful. Thank you very much!
After watching this vid a few times and about 6 deaths, I finally completed it solo. Damn, only took me 5 seasons :) Appreciate Rax. . Watched many videos, but this one connected with me and allowed the completion. Great work!
OMG THANK YOU. I've been trying to kill Lilith for weeks now, with Lightning Spear I didn't lack the damage, but those fireballs always one shotted me in phase 2. After warching your video, I've killed her first try.
You are definitely right about me just being afraid to fight her (based on my history of how that has gone)... but you letting me know that she is actually harder than the other Tormented bosses gave me the confidence to go kill them... and DAMN were they a lot easier than I thought they would be. Lilith still kills me though...
I died to Lilith like 10 times back to back in season one and never tried to fight her cause I was too scared. I watched this video and I finally beat her after two tries this season. Thank you so much for the guide!
Thanks Raxx. Just carried my brother through it after watching your vid. There really isn't any simpler explanation than yours. Love your content as always. Just an observation, I dunno if they changed it or what, but the blood bubbles never stop shooting those little white fireballs when I run her. Your method is still the answer, but I'd love if if the blood boils would stop shooting like they do on your runs. I've ran her 3 times and all 3 times it was constant running around the platform.
How to kill Lilith: Get carried by Raxx.
That's my takeaway.
I may join the discord. I always play alone now as it takes me longer to do stuff and gear etc. not sure 🫤🤔
It’s worse than that. The actual way to be real is to pray the games RNG decides to let you I can one shot her. My resistance is Capt and my armor is Capt and I just randomly die to unavoidable unpredictable one hit attack attacks.
I have been playing this game since Beta.
I have never been successful.
I saw this video pop up and decided to give it another try.
I can finally say that I've beaten her, and I'm one step closer to my first Mythic.
This working-class dad with 37 kids thanks you.
Thata awesome!!!
37 kids? Bro wtf
@@ct1029he maybe memeing on the players that say they have a job and family so don't have time to do boss battles .....
I feel (felt) your pain........54 here...a casual, casual player but got her....and thought I would never get down her....
I just did it while watching this vid. You know how? The boss bugged out and did all the phases without spawning the tiny blue balls of death
i got killed like 55 times trying then I watched your video and it took me like 15 runs to perfect my routine and I finally finished her off. Thanks Rax - ur the man.
I killed Lilith during the vampire season with my twisting blades rogue. I died over 70 times before i killed her. But the feeling was out of this world. And i haven't taken off the Lilith's Doom title since. This season, i've killed her 2 times with my barrage rogue and honestly what killed me 9/10 was the mechanics at phase 2. I had so much trouble dodging those small blue orbs following you lol
A useful trick is to equip a necklace with maxed out movement speed and extra movement speed temper for phase two, it really helped me on my rogue. There’s enough time between phase 1 and 2 to swap your amulets from your inventory.
Also remember to dash and evade if those flying things are catching up to you. I killed her very easily with my Andariel’s poison barrage rogue.
about the same)) suppose you would probably enjoy soulslike games (ds3, sekiro, elden ring) if not already a fan of those))
Yeah I just killed her with my barrage rogue as well and like you blue orbs were the problem for me. so hard to see those little shits amidst the chaos. i think it is because i panic a lot lol.
Same here except i did bone spear necro back then. I think they gave her new patterns during phase 2 in season 4 and that’s really thrown me off
Yeah same! Mrs & I used a couple electro-cheese baller queens, but it kinda felt...unsatisfying, heh.
Appreciate it, Raxx! Lilith was the only Tormented boss I couldn't kill--I'd easily get her to that last tick of health on the second wave and got hit by the ground mechanics every time. Once I watched your video, I died twice more until I got the hang of it, and then just super easily killed her and got my last of the free Resplendent Sparks. Cheers and thanks!
I beat her for my first time by myself yesterday then carried my dad through it as well. Thanks rax!
Can I carry your dad like a fireman
Yeah he is totaly right about that, when he started doing lilith carrys at the start of the season i watch him do it 2-3 times, just went in there and did it. First time since S1 i coud do it. i never tryed that hard because its not worth it, but S5 everybody with any build can do it.

Thanks again for the fight tips. They helped.
There is only 1 solution for having an easy fight here. Do more than 50 million dps with your build. So you can skip phase 1 and phase 2 at the start of the phases and only have to do the plattform game at the end.
@@lordad Very true. I guess that is what I find so egregious. Were it not for the stackng damage it would be a difficult fight for the average player but still something an Off-Meta build could manage. The Tormented versions I would expect to be considerably tougher for those players using fully optimized Meta builds. Ranting again. Thanks for the comment.
Best lilith tutorial out there. Got her 1st try thanks to the pathing suggested, evaded everything..!
How to kill Lilith:
1. Do ludicrous damage even when using none of your abilities
2. Why are you still reading this
I'm doing ludicrous damage but couldn't get through the bullet hell. Hopefully thanks to this vid I can do it today!
EDIT: just did it!!! Thanks Raxx, it definitely helped! 😁😁
@@armorvil Same My problem isn't killing her its staying alive through all the insta kill mechanics
I don’t know if you’ve attempted her at all. Majorly of players who play 1+ hour a day can have a build which kills here before the first platform break. It’s the mandatory mechanics that’s fully bullshit.
with my bash barb last season, i made millions of damage per hit, have enough res armor and life. I can easily burn p1 after a min or 2 (depending on the scripting of the game). Then nuke her on p2, until she starts destroying the platform and her shooting those white projectiles. If you do not know how to evade her attacks in p2, it will one shot you
@@liuby33 why are they bullshit? Anyone can kill her. All you need is 1. Decent DPS 2. Enough move speed to outrun the orbs and 3. Actually know what you're doing in the fight
I finally beat her thanks to this video. Her first phase is troublesome if you can't down her early before she does the circle wall thing, because she jumps very quickly again. So I masterworked my gear to 8, the weapon to 12. That downed her quickly. In the second phase your pathing is key to get the fireballs under control. I died often to them not noticing them. The pathing makes this phase more like a rythm game. Thank you raxx, you helped me a ton
I don’t even play a Sorc and this guys last 2 videos have just taught me a significant amount about this game. Very happy
Glad to hear it bud!
AWESOME Guide! Just started playing this season 6 and really appreciated the step by step assistance! was rushing trough it but who knew walking around was easier.
you didnt even showed the strongest abilities. if you cant oneshot her in the first phase she does a lot more wave attacks which are harder to avoid. this guide is helpful for really strong builds but not for builds who arent able to skip her phases.
There are other guides bruv
this is the problem I'm having. Sometimes I nuke her in seconds, sometimes she jumps and, Never. Comes. Back. Down. EVER. I still don't get it.
That's not the point. The point is that video is just typical of this guys work. Sloppy
Exactly. 9-12 masterwork and tormented bosses are not possible unless you already beat them with broken rewards from them
@@Viz79
He mapped out her attack patterns, that's really all you need. His videos are optional, change the channel if you think he is sloppy. He goes out of his way to help the community •in game•.
Honestly if you need more than the attack pattern map the issue isn't his guide, it's you as the player not running a basic run of the mill blizzard saftey dance which has been is nearly all their games since D1.
Don't stand in stupid= victory.
you just made this doable for me! thank you.
No kidding, I tried to kill Lilith in S4 about 150 times, never successfully. Always died when she broke the top right platform.
Watched this in S5 (this morning), hopped on my Landslide druid (well geared with the proper mythics, but most of my gear is 0-1GAs on), and crushed it on the first attempt.
Thanks!
I've never even seen the platform break. Usually I burn her till she start spawning adds and then I'm just dodging the stacking one-shot kills for next ten to fifteen minutes until my internet has a hiccup and I die. I literally don't know how to get past this part because she just seems invincible.
after 40 trys I searched for a guide and there was you with a perfect strategy and I got her down after 5 trys and I noticed the movementspeed aspect carries, too.
I had 136% and after changing some stats I got 168% and made the fight even easier.
Thank you so much Raxx!
Thank you so much! Tried this fight a hundred times before and always died. Watched this video and got it first time!
First ever attempt. Chain Lighting Sorc. Took me 12-15 runs and I took her out.
Fantastic guide. +1 Sub.
Looks easy when he does it but I died before I even reached the 2nd pace 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I mean he has maxroll gear in every slot and is playing the broekOP class of the season. which blizzard still hasn't figured out how to balance classes in 2024. how old is this franchise now, 30 years?
Raxx.. the original Edge Lord.
@@cardigansrule soo which games on this genre have perfect class balance? PoE? Last Epoch? Grim Dawn? Torchlight? Help me out bro, I'm dying to know.
You da man, Man!
I was running Lightning Spear this season (the game kept shoving the gear at me even though I was looking for something else, LOL) and I could easily burn Uber Lilith down to a sliver, but the phases were kicking my butt. This video got me my spark. Thanks!
Thanks for posting this as a separate video..was doing hordes when you were live
subbed. that was way way way way too good of an explanation. i had no IDEA what that 2nd phase was about since i'm colorblind af. all i did was do the circle thing and dodge like you said. holy crap you're amazing. thank you thank you thank you
I feel like all the builds that are required to “easily kill Lilith” actually require mythics themselves. Am I mistaken? Maybe I’m reading the builds wrong.
This is literally every streamer, they tell you how super easy something is well then they have the best gear fully fucking Min maxed
@@Whelp140 lol why you here then? If you've learned nothing from this streamer then it's a you problem. His example here might not be the best but you can definitely kill lilith or any tormented boss without mythics. You just have to know what you're doing. And there's plenty of guides out there, whether it's build/farming/leveling. Just like Raxx and his videos.
@@nine9_abyss because I love the videos and I've been following him for years now the problem is you can't tell me where the straight face that 90% of these bills that require mythics all the ones that get posted where they're like do this it's so easy
Well you dont require Mythics but you need insane damage. This video is only helpfull for people who can allready clear PIT 90+ and kill Uber Tormented Duriel Solo in less than 1 minute.... he does so much damage that he basically skips the whole fight... and only explains the after Lilith health is 0 plattform mechanics
My first Lilith kill this season was with a level 97 with no mythics, no masterworked gear, no level 21 glyphs, and missing several uniques for my build. Build guides show you the perfect gear with the perfect rolls/tempers/masterworks/greater affixes so you know what to work towards. These aren't minimum requirements in order to make the build work.
Just give it a go. Lilith is not that hard any more.
Very rarely do I comment on youtube, but have to hand it to you Raxx. ALL the other guides were so useless I was almost going to give up on fight. Watched this vid and did it 1st time. Thank you so much ;)
You've posted how to beat her before, as have others - but this was brief and to the point. MUCH appreciated man, thank you. I actually feel confident I can finally beat her for my platinum trophy this season, that's been bugging me since the game came out.
Raxx is the gift that keeps on giving! I haven’t fought Lilith since the campaign at launch and I wasn’t aware of the one-shot mechanics until I tried this season. My SB would nuke her at the beginning of each phase and then I would just die for no apparent reason lol Thanks Raxx!
absolutely the best guide for beating Lilith. Finally got my first kill and spark. Didn't need a carry.
Thanks man, we literally just defeated her for the first time ever. Most guides were based on the fight before the insta-kill projectiles, so we got smoke many times before we came across your video.
Thanks.
Step 1: Have God-level gear.
Exactly. Don't seem so hard when you got multiple ubers.
Thank you Raxx, this made me finally understand the fight. I had more than enough damage, but I was confused with the mechanics. Made the kill easily now when I saw your drawings and explanation
I legit just talked with a friend about this for a steam achievement. Couldn't have been more perfectly timed
Thank you for this guide, Raxx. I did it on my first try after watching this. Not only was I able to do it, I also carried two of my friends together. Those shadow bullet thingies were the only things killing me. This guide made it super super easy to avoid that.
damn I have a lightning spear sorc with all the mythic uniques, but nowhere close to this damage...
do you have the necklace
Yah same here my dps isn't even close to this. It's good enough to beat the t8 horde bosses in 5 minutes or so but that's about it.
@@madspice1663 yes, got the exact copy of all the items in the build guide (not the same stats ofc but close)... Raxx just pressed 1 orb and she got 25% of her HP pool down... I have to stand there for 30 secs and mash buttons like mad if I want to bring her health down before she starts to jump... from what Raxx has it seems he could do that in 5 - 10 secs with his damage
Check your masterworking crits. It’s not enough just to have all the gear, you need to reset and redo masterworking until you have enough CDR to just spam Lightning Spear. I have 12/12 with all the right triple crits for CDR on Shako and Tal Rasha’s, and Lilith is trivial to kill. For both phases, I get her down to zero HP in less than five seconds and the thing that then takes time is to run around avoiding the flying stuff while she goes through her phase 2 mechanics to completion.
Oh and make sure you use a Fists of Fate with lots of lucky hit to stagger her quickly, the actual aspect’s value on FoF doesn’t matter since splintering aspect ignores it and that’s where we do our damage. Even minimum roll is okay as long as you have at least 50% lucky hit. Ideally you want a GA on lucky hit and then crit it further through masterworking
@@zaoshikung2756 yep, same here... can do T8 bosses, but its not easy, they have a chance to 1 shot me with something, mostly their hydra spawns can do that
T7 feels totally easy compared to T8, I can feel my damage not being high enough
Mr. Rax, I cannot thank you enough for this. I have been easily damaging Lilith down but could not figure out for the life of me how to avoid these instant kill effects. I feel like I was playing an old school platform game again; and you were my older cousin. Peace
I have a barrage rogue, 8/12 and in some cases 12/12 master worked and simply was lost as to what to do phase 2. I can do T7 hordes fairly easily. I can do the bosses on Tormented I’ve tried but she’s been my bane.
I’ll try this today and see how it goes. 🤞🏻
Not a chance in hell. Without the 1B dps you have your method doesn't work. This is the typical out of touch with what "casual" or "normal" players have compared to what streamers have logic. I appreciate the effort, but for 90% of the people this guide isn't useful because we don't have the DPS and we have to dodge 97 waves and mechanics perfectly or get one shot. Will this work? Yes, if we play perfectly for 200x longer than you did.
15 tries, zero chance to actually beat her because my DPS as a normal player just has no chance to burn her down before I make a mistake and get killed. Yeah, "don't make a mistake" sorry I'm human, not a bot.
Still can't beat her. To suggest there aren't more mechanics then you say is wrong. You literally said "run around like a chicken with your head cut off" that's an AMAZING guide tip. The fact everything damaging or not damaging is red or.. red is a shit design. Having no idea where it's safe to stand and where it isn't is simply lazy developing. They can't make it hard so they just make it cluttered and confusing. I can basically one shot her life, I can survive getting hit by the chasing orbs but specific things just one shot you and that's a crap game mechanic made by lazy devs.
I had never invested enough time in any Season before the expansion to kill Uber Lilith. With the changes to progression though, I decided to give it a proper try, especially since she's now accessible in T1. Attempted it, did good damage, but ultimately kept dying over and over no matter how hard I tried. Looked at some (honestly poor) guides and still felt clueless until I found your guide. The way you explain both conceptually and visually so clearly is a huge part of why you're the best ARPG content creator out there. Thanks Raxx!
Don't EVEN THINK ABOUT killing Lilith with a Thorn Barb. You've Negative chance to even inflect a little bit of damage on her and that's when she's hitting you personally. The rest of the time? You're DOA.
Only downside is the debuff and instakill stuff she does
Thanks Raxx ! I finally beat her on my own, my heart is bouncing in chest and my hands are shaking a.f. but i did it!! ❤🎉 So much love for the help you do every time in your streams and vids ! Keep up the job 👏🏼
The issue is you need the mystics just like necro but with the starter character without mystics you cannot kill torment bosses without help, so if you are solo the endgame is limited and frustrating
Hey Rax, just wanna say thanks for this video, I’m a solo lightning spear and with around 30 attempts I beat her for the first time today and after a few uber bosses I got my first ever mythic drop. I’m in my 30’s and feel like a kid again and you’re a part of that, anyway thanks for all the videos and the effort you put in.
Step one delete all your characters and make a sorc.
Thank you for the encouragement. Still took like 10 times but I got it. It’s also worth telling people that even if you kill her in phase 2 before she destroys the platform she doesn’t die u til after the platform has been destroyed. She has just a sliver of health.
It would be good to watch , without the mythicals :)
Thanks Raxx, I got her in Season 5 for my first time with a Druid because of your training in this video. I appreciate it, it's been bothering me, great video. Raxx is the hero to us causal Dad gamers.
what buffles me: the 'attack power' on this Sorc is like 12k and Lilith health is melting. My WW-Barb has 50k attack power without berserk and is barely hurting her. attack power obviously means nothing? He also has 70k life, yet he's dying quickly with max res and armor
Attack power is as useful as the label on your mattress.
The trick about not starting on the platform helped me beat Lilith for the first time! Thanks Raxx.
have a fireball sorc and can't even get her to the first tick health orbs on her first phase.. and i can do tier 5 hordes. I honestly don't know how to even progress now
switch to Lightning Spear
@@chunkyrobomunkyI have fireball, love the build and don't want to switch. Why is there one build so much better than everything else. Blizzard should balance a bit first week of the season to have more build diversity.. but no of course it's more fun when 80%+ of people are running same class and build in the endgame
Dont even think about trying Lilith if you dont do at least 50million dps..... your single fireballs should hit for at least 7million before you can zerg her down fast... i tried it with my 5 Million DPS Fireball Sorc that can also do T5 Horde easily and clears PIT 55 and killed Tormented Duriel Solo.... but 0 chance vs Lilith.... then i tried my Andariel Poison Rogue with 75million dps and deleted her easy. This boss is a pure DPS check
@ultra3331 I got my first ever Lilith kill this season with a fireball sorc. I followed Lurkin's build guide (red wedding).
@@Halsyan i did it too, still struggle with tier 7 though. Guess it's time to switch
Rax you're by far my favorite D4 TH-camr; so clear, concise, and HELPFUL. Thanks for doing what you do :)
Thank you, I just soloed my first ever Uber Lilith thanks to your clear explanations of the various mechanics, which to the casual untrained eye (mine) appear totally random when you're just getting hit by them for no apparent reason. Now I know why I was being hit, and how to avoid it!
Hey, Raxx. Thanks for this great guide. I just killed Uber Lilith with my andy rogue and this really helped. I managed to avoid most of the Phase 1 mechanics with just high DPS facetanking, but your description of Phase 2 was spot on. Only took about 10 tries after I got fully geared up.
Cheers for this - got my first kill today on Torment 1 - Bone Spear Necro - thanks to your tips on movement. Cheers Raxx!
Thanks! This guide helped me beat Lilith. You're really good at breaking things down.
I tried a bunch of times to beat her. This guide helped me get further along in the fight, but I kept getting hit by those fireballs in the 2nd phase. Then one time she only spawned a few of those, then stopped. I didn't have to worry about them the rest of the fight and I finally got her. Very odd, I have no idea what happened, but I guess I'll take it. Thanks for the tips!
I just got my first kill using this guide. The illustrations and the video really helped with the positioning. Thank you very much, kind sir!
omg finally after probably more than 100+ failed attempts, I finally beat her!
Thank you for this guide, you did help greatly and I gave you a thumbs up...but I will say that despite my Druid being able to easily Solo any tormented boss, I had a lot of difficulty in Phase 1 of Lilith & I found it much more challenging than depicted in your guide.
I could not just stand at the bottom and dodge her attacks vertically, had to move more and sometimes they came from the sides...Phase 2 of your guide really helped me though and I found that part easy once I memorized the pattern you explained, Thanks!
I was struggling a lot and never actually killed her, but managed after this video! Thanks a bunch, man!
Thanks Rax!! I just killed her for my first time tonight! So stoked, some of the most fun and challenging content in D4 I’ve engaged with: Super enjoyable! Thanks again!!
Must have tried 20 times before coming here. It was the "keep moving" that saved me. i didn't realizes here fireballs were getting me. thanks bro!
It still took me an embarrassing amount of attempts, but finally! Thank you so much for the guide. And, I get all spazzed out, but you're so calm!
Thank you so much for such an informative video Raxx. I have been stuck trying to kill her each season and came across your video. Then figured I would give it a go and took her right out. Again thank you!
Thanks for this Raxx. I never figured out the platform part of P2 and having to wait for it to drop to the last one. That last invincibility phase she has before it happens has been the sole reason I gave up many times before.
Oh My goodness thankyou Rax! None of the other guides I have seen really broke down how to actually dodge so much of that fight! Just 'Hey don't get hit, its easy!'. Took me like 5 tries after watching this!
Subscribed! Your vid and explanation is absolutely on point. I slayed Uber Lilith FINALLY! Thank you man!
One of the best boss fight walkthroughs I've watched for any game, nice work sir, really appreciate all you do for the community.
Rax, you're amazing. Thank you for helping this Mom keep up with her son in this game!
This guide is excellent, the semi circle “walk around” works great for moving through the segments of phase 2 …
Hey Rax. Long time listener. Great work mate! Great video. This strat works well. I kept dying, but once I increased my speed a little (150 min recommended), it worked perfectly! Thanks again.
My build is not able to burn her down as fast but I was still able to solo her (thank you Raxx). Once I stopped worrying about the adds in phase 1 I was able to clear it much easier. I would make myself unstoppable when she slammed back into the ground which helped get more DPS on her and then just cleaned em up and those red pods they spawn. Phase 2 is easy once you follow this. Thanks again
Hands down the best explanation on Uber Lilith kill in season 5. Didn't know those small orbs were so deadly even though i have a super tanky build. The run around the edges is bang on, though timing has to be almost perfect. Was able to kill her in 3 tries.
Thanks man! You made this easy for me season 6 first kill ever and on a barbarian! Awesome video Raxx.
OMG, because you explained how the mechanics worked I finally passed Lilith 😁 thank you so much 👏👌😊
Thank you, nice guide!
One thing I want to highlight: you NEED movement speed for this fight, you simply can't avoid some attacks (ie fireballs) without 150% speed
Just wanted to say thank you for the video Raxx, I watched this video yesterday then went home and crushed Lilith for the 1st time (1st tried in her Season 4, with OP bash barb to no avail), with my Frozen Orb sorc after about 20 attempts. Feels good to get all the sparks on my own now
Thanks Raxx, very helpful.
Please pass along to devs that if I need to watch a video to understand what exactly killed me instantly a dozen times then they have failed game design basics.
thx. finally got her, mostly because of this guide. the one thing that wasn't clear to me is whether you could burn her down in phase 2. once i stopped trying to dps -- even with stagger! -- until after all the platform breaks, i could stay alive well and take her down when she was done with all that.
i will say it really helps to have the sheer firepower to get right through phase 1. but i could do that with blood mist last season and still not survive phase 2.
10 hours after watching this I decided to try, just vaguely remembering the concepts and got her on the first try. LOL! Thanks! (Although I already had the spark from you carrying me on stream, which got me what I needed to craft a shako and become strong by farming T7/T8 hordes!)
great explination, she wrecked me forever, first time after your video was my first solo kill on her. great job.
Thank you for the well-explained tutorial. It took me a few tries to get the pattern, but it was easy with your directions and video.
I didn’t get it right away and had to eventually make a an amulet for movement speed because my Druid was out of shape but this actually worked. I was saying the same things out loud as you “don’t go down up. I’m just walking anyone can do this , don’t just run there wait now go in “ lol thanks a lot. Done it multiple times now and helped my friends too
Finally got her thanks to you Rax!!! Cheers! I kept stressing and running into her attacks , but just strolling around like you did got it!
Been enjoying, and using your tips, tricks and builds for years. Ty for breaking mechanics and builds down brother. Lets me get the most out of limited game time. I'm grateful the time I got to relax isn't spent learning mechanics but putting them to use.
You make good games, that wouldn't be playable with less time to play, actually enjoyable.
My man. Thank you for the great guide. I'm using the evade build for spiritborn and couldn't tell what was killing but those white ball.
Thanks Raxx finally did it a blood surge necro with 3 uber uniques. I think after 250 plus attempts I finally got it but your video was clutch.
Thanks, Rax!!!
Had my first Lilith Kill today thanks to your video.
I watch you all the time and your skills and knowledge are super helpfull.
Keep going :)
Thanks, man. Not only did this video make the fight sensible enough for me to finally finish it today, but it was so good I did it completely drunk. Well done, sir.
My buddies and I tried every evening for an hour or two the last couple of days and nothing. Watched your video half an hour later she's down. Such simple tips yet so powerful. Thank you very much!
WOW!! I could not figure out how to deal with those 1 shot blue orbs, died 25 times, watched this video and got her first try!! Much appreciated
Raxxx my dude. I did it . Your videos are amazing. I could not have done it without you. You LEGEND
Used this guide once again in S6 and beat her second try. Thanks again! 😊❤
After watching this vid a few times and about 6 deaths, I finally completed it solo. Damn, only took me 5 seasons :) Appreciate Rax. . Watched many videos, but this one connected with me and allowed the completion. Great work!
Dude! Watched your video and took her down on the second try! First attempt at her this season. Thanks for all the content bro!
Thanks for the tips Raxx you helped me with my first kill this season & after watching you do so many runs now I'm helping carry others
this REALLY helped. thanks raxx. the ghosts are annoying but we did it!
I finally defeated Lilith for the first time thanks to this video and the incredibly calm demeanor with which you explained the mechanics.
OMG THANK YOU. I've been trying to kill Lilith for weeks now, with Lightning Spear I didn't lack the damage, but those fireballs always one shotted me in phase 2. After warching your video, I've killed her first try.
You are definitely right about me just being afraid to fight her (based on my history of how that has gone)... but you letting me know that she is actually harder than the other Tormented bosses gave me the confidence to go kill them... and DAMN were they a lot easier than I thought they would be.
Lilith still kills me though...
I died to Lilith like 10 times back to back in season one and never tried to fight her cause I was too scared. I watched this video and I finally beat her after two tries this season. Thank you so much for the guide!
Thanks Raxx. Just carried my brother through it after watching your vid. There really isn't any simpler explanation than yours. Love your content as always. Just an observation, I dunno if they changed it or what, but the blood bubbles never stop shooting those little white fireballs when I run her. Your method is still the answer, but I'd love if if the blood boils would stop shooting like they do on your runs. I've ran her 3 times and all 3 times it was constant running around the platform.
