Nim is wayyyyyyyy to overpowered

I think an easy mode with less rewards could work, keeping his attacks the same but slowing down the cycles of his special attacks and more time during his do nothing. Not everyone is twitch focused in games, but this game is more about figuring out how mobs do what they do, using dodge and LOS has been my friend most of the time. But I have just to NIM and won't be trying him until the weekend when I have the time to spend figuring it out. Will have to let you know how a 60 year old does, the biggest challenge I get is not from single powerful mobs, it is when I am being surrounded by multiple mobs all shooting me at once, luanching gernades and rocket launchers.

I remember in one mission kiting mobs through a narrow space turning around and tossing a gernade into the space. Now that was fun.

Rather then an easy mode with less rewards (what would that even be? no pistol? blue pistol?) Trion could create a slow increase in challenge during the course of the story. Make the curve ending at Nim a hill instead of the equivalent of running across a beach and into a cliff.

I didn't notice any huge jump in difficulty with nim the only thing i remember thinking in regards to the fight was that that type of fight proves that raids could work in this game, multi phasing fight with actual mechanics in an enclosed environment.

It has not been an uncommon attitude that Nim is oddly challenging. Take into account how shockingly easy the rest of the game is at the moment.

If you can place a cross hairs on the weak spot and keep moving at the same time Defiance isn't particularly demanding.

Beat him again last night.

Easiest way is Beam weapon so you can recharge your shields.
Simple as that.

Now if you want the challenge you go with whatever you want and keep moving , rolling and shooting.

I used a basic white BMG that did 46 per tick on Nim and a Assault rilfe for the 2nd part to shoot him on the balcony, that ran out quick then swapped to a Wolfhound.

The fight is not as hard with the BMG

I beat him in 3 tries.. :)

As a modern gamer - Nim should not present any specially difficult challenge for anyone. Hes tough but by no means as strong as folks keep making him out to be. He just isnt.
