I hope there are more fights like Minotaur fight.
The fight is completely doable with right characters and right setup. No cheese needed. I didn't even have the annoying cleric to heal my team.
My comp was: Ranger (PC) + Wizard + Warlock + Fighter
I was wandering headfirst with my whole team in Underdark then I fell victim to this ambush. I didn't reload a safe save. I continued as it was because I made a mistake and I had to deal with the consequence just like in a table-top game.
I took it as a very good opportunity to test my teams resolve.
I really like this fight, it was an ambush style combat that requires a saving dice roll not to fall into it ( I mean I guess because my not survivor ranger PC failed the roll).
I was expecting some ambush in the game especially in underdark given it's reputation and from the get go I made my fighter a bit tanky and rest of my team is geared towards utility.
This was the fight which ate up a lot of stuff that had been just resting in my bag.
I have to admit I reload the fight couple times but not because I expected a loss because I enjoyed it very much so that I wanted to try different defence and offence combinations to get from being hunted to being hunter.
I really really wish Larian prepare more fights like this for the full release. It really felt like I am playing a DnD game.
PS: Always examine the enemy. Knowing Minotaurs have vulnerability to bludgeoning damage helped a lot.
