If you approach the final boss of Act 2 in the incorrect manner, it will light you on fire and then finish you off. Find a written guide to the conflict as well as a video that walks you through it, complete with advice on how to prevail. It is possible that Astaroth will be the first act boss you face in Diablo 4, but this will depend on the order in which you explore the different regions of the game. If you are determined to complete the Donan's Favor quest in order to unlock the mount, but you do not realize that you are on the wrong path, then you will face Astaroth.

Preparations Before you go to face the boss, or if you decide to block on it, there are a few simple actions that should greatly tip the scales in your favor

  1. They are as follows:Consuming an elixir that increases your resistance to flames will provide you with significant advantages to your survival

  2. You can acquire them by completing specific quests, and occasionally you can find them on the dead bodies of enemies

  3. If this is not the case, you should consult the local alchemist

  4. There is a good chance that you will be able to create this elixir with the components that you already possess, provided that you have taken the time to collect the plants that you have found along the way

  5. Before you reach a high level, you should modify your skill points, which normally cost very little or nothing at all

  6. Remove your skills that deal area damage and, whenever it is possible to do so, replace them with skills that are more effective against a single target

  7. It is dependent on the Diablo 4 class you play and the build you choose

  8. An example:As a Sorcerer, you should replace your Fireball Enchantment with either Fire Lightning or Lightning Chain instead



You can also include defensive and/or mobility abilities in your build, such as Blood Mist, used by Necromancers, or Bond, used by Barbarians. It is a perfectly viable option to ask friends for assistance or to form a coalition with other players in the area in order to make combat significantly simpler.

FightAstaroth is not a particularly difficult boss, but it is simple to lose if you are not paying attention. To provide a rough summary: You should never continue to stand in front of him. When Astaroth turns his attention toward you, you should do everything in your power to circumvent him and get behind his back as quickly as possible because it is almost certain that he will launch a significant attack in your direction. Ironically, maintaining a sufficient proximity to the boss enables you to circumvent the problem more quickly and with less effort. It will be much simpler for you to go behind your back with a single ability or to dodge it if you do either of those things. Because their attacks are so broad, and frequently take the shape of a cone, it is much simpler to sidestep them even when they are very close. Triple Flame Blast is Astaroth's primary attack, in which the dog strikes in a single direction to inflict significant damage over a period of time and at a great distance. You can easily get out of it if you follow the tips that were given above. Because the damage will last for a long time, evacuating as soon as possible is extremely important.

Mowing: In addition to the breath, Astaroth will make a sweeping motion with his scythe across the entire area in front of him. In the same way as with the fake, the most effective strategy is to rush behind his back when he turns. There is also the possibility of positioning yourself at a great distance. Sweeping the flames: Instead of just blowing in one direction, the dog will rotate while they are blowing. Once more, being in close proximity to the boss will make it easier for you to avoid their attack. A meteor shower will begin once Astaroth has lost a significant amount of its life. These meteors will leave puddles of flames on the ground as they pass through the area. Your travel plans will be significantly more difficult as a result of this. Make an effort to turn in that direction and place yourself behind the boss's back at all times.
