So I accidentally played 20h into one mage built on staves and elemental spells, did absolutely fine with my grissenda and did most of the quests aside from the Ark. When I hit level 18, I finally respecced into summoner/staves build and ventured to Ark, while choosing option for evil ending.
Everything seemed fine, I actually got almost no problems killing steel things with only the corruptor and iron golems, until I went into reactor. So far my mage has 3+1 endurance, giving me 200hp, still I am a glass cannon that definitely has nothing to survive 1v1 fight against steel spider, and barely a steel wizard with my 123 shock resist.
The golem is killed almost instantly by radiation, and then I am killed almost instantly by enemies, surely having more damage that any mage shield build can sustain. I tried to Gate back to icemist several times to try making another build, with mage shield, golems, staves and lightning bolts in different combination, and I wouldn't be writing this if any of that could help.
I could not get any piece of arc equipment, and eventually even if I would do, I die too fast to use any. Even with constant clicking on medipack button and running around.
So how the hell am I supposed to survive the reactor?
(The only time I beated Ark was solo casual rouge, who a) sneaked or runned away past most enemies b) used evasion + flurry build, basically becoming invincible for the duration for any hazards)
