I'm a pretty new player so any tips would be appreciated .
This bastard seems very overpowered for this depth and he's a quest monster for me so I have to kill him to progress. I'm at 1200 feet with health of 254, and he breathes toxic waste for 140 damage . I immediately need to teleport out after getting hit with that. I have poison resistance and in the guide I have it says this protects against toxic waste damage but if that's true if I didn't have it he would easily 1-shot me!
I've approached him, got toasted, and teleported a couple of times. He either breathes waste first, in which case I need to teleport, or he summons a bunch of Hydras, which I probably can't handle, and then hits me with toxic waste. Any ideas on how I can beat him and suggestions on my character/equipment would be great. Here's my guy and the last encounter with Barney. Thanks!
