Alrighty, this seems like a bad repeat of my previous post, but these Hell Hounds can go straight to, well, hell.
They hit like mac trucks, have enough HP to go toe to toe with a hot heavy hitter for 3-4 rounds. On the cold side, the specialist has the wonderful debuff black metal that makes healing 5% as effective as it was prior.
Your suggestions would be, as always, well appreciated.
Well, obviously, hell hounds can be defeated so lets not think about that for now. So, how much health does the specialist have and how much does the hound have?
I recommend the following: Fire away at top hound with standard hot/cold attacks Stun/mind freeze specialist/hypothermia (they use speed for their attacks)/long term hot DoT's Ice wall the bottom hound into a state of neutralization.
I'm pretty sure I used a hot build with Ice Wall and Dead Man's Plea for support. It been awhile since I did this, so I don't remember specifics. Just focus on one hound at a time and try to keep Dux up.
I played it like Volt. I kept mind freezing the specialist (I'm a cold hydro) and just took out the dogs. The specialist is crap without his focus moves.
