Hrmm, I guess my experience has been far different. I actually think Moder is the easiest boss and Bonemass the other end of the spectrum. I guess they are all fairly easy, but in the half dozen times I've fought Moder, he's been even easier then Eikthyr using proper tiered gear for when you're doing the encounter.
I'll admit tho, I don't do a lot of melee on Moder. Mostly just poison arrows, an occasional fire arrow for the DOT.
I have maxed out silver gear when I take on Moder. Not one of the dozen or so times I have fought that fight, has it taken less than 20 actual minutes. I usually have time to run out the Bonemass perk, recharge it, and use it again before Moder goes down. A lot of that is fighting the mountain terrain and stamina drain from doing so. Melee does so much better damage, but both melee and arrows are affected by the odd hit-box. None of the other bosses come close to being so difficult and their hit-box's make sense.
Bonemass has usually been one of the easiest bosses to take on for me. A couple poison resists potions, a couple health potions, a mace, and 5 minutes tops. I actually usually do Bonemass back to back to get the trophy pick up out of the way for my trophy wall.
I am curious how you can manage your stamina, while dodging on a mountainside with no cover to regain your stamina. The light stamina potions available at that point don't help a lot especially with the cool down. I just don't see how it can be done faster than 30 min with a bow, even the maxed out Drauger bow. I die at least once almost 30% time in that fight too, usually from stamina loss. If the hit-box made sense, it would go a lot faster.
