Hey everyone, I stumbled upon an unexpected challenge while playing Diablo 4 in hardcore mode. I’ve just finished the end game without ever facing Lilith, and I decided to backtrack to complete some quests. As it turns out, my character is pretty overpowered, but I still got one-shot right at the start of the fight! I clearly messed up, but was there something I should have known going in? Just curious if anyone else has experienced this or had tips for approaching Lilith in hardcore mode! Check out my video of the encounter here: [VIDEO LINK](https://youtu.be/Lq_a13uLqRI?t=54)

Honestly, it seems like doing a run in softcore first could have really helped you out! You gotta get a feel for the fight’s mechanics, especially with a boss like Lilith. It’s all about learning her patterns without risking your hardcore character.
Yeah, you gotta be ready for the surprises in hardcore! It’s part of the thrill, really. But I totally get how frustrating it can be when you die out of the blue, especially if you weren’t prepared for those crazy mechanics.
Right? It’s like the game is designed to throw you off in hardcore. You can think you’re ready and then BAM, one-shot!
