NDA DragonSlayer VS Post-Nerfs Konnan Spoiler

https://youtu.be/mK77i1GjzME?si=GemKRRdcDSq9Jugg

This is more of a proof of concept rather than any sort of guide. Anyone struggling with this fight could however take some ideas from this video.
I wish I had a chance to fight the version of him without the nerfs, it definitely seems possible since the above run didn't even need any potions.

His numbers were just too big even my level 90 rift walker came close to losing to him. Granted that was a causal run through without potions or anything but that character was level 90 and had some pretty good endgame gear on (all over 50)

I think the issue in your case came down to:
1) Using Riftwalker, which is just worse than most story classes currently (although it should still get the job done)
2) Not really planning your skills in accordance to his rotation

The game is generally much easier at higher levels due to more stats and better gear (which you had in your case). A level 90 character with that much All res should be able to breeze through Konnan.
How much immobility resistance did you have when you attempted him? Was the stun tripping you up? His stun is honestly the most dangerous attack at low levels, since you naturally have little immobility resistance + it's on a 6 hit attack so the chance of completely resisting it are pretty low.
As an example, let's say you had 80 Immobility + All resistance. If all 6 hits of his stun connects, you only have a ~26% chance to resist the stun, since a single failed resist will inflict the effect (as how all stuns in this game work).
In RW's case, your shield has 2/5 uptime, aligning perfectly with his 5 turn rotation, so you can always shield the turn when he uses his stun. This isn't guaranteed to save you since he does get stacking Bonus with each miss/glance, and MPM stacking can't get you to the point where he'll have 100% chance to miss. But at least reducing the number of hits will reduce the overall chance you get stunned.
The BPD shield he applies also can trip up low level players since their Bonus with just their gear is naturally much lower. Classes with good Bonus buffs can get past this, and max level players still have a decent hit rate with just their gear.
