Dangerous Mobs - whats important to know - what killed u lately?

Hi community,

if some players participate and post their opinions and experiences, this could get a handy thread for newer players or HC-starters.

It should content the encounters u find in normal levelling and lower mapping - if u can prepare for a bossfight or a hard map, its not necessary to be added on this list.


What we remember as dangerous or what killed us lately:
- mutated chieftain on tora mission with Vaal Molten shell, if attacked in melee range
- instant death by spawned beyond-reflect-monster in front of the char
- dominus: the touch of god - even high tank classes cant tank this smash
- Triskeriaki-rakango-boss, does immense chaos damage with projectiles
- warband-leader
- flameblast-rogue exile
- ek-trap-rogue exile
- volatile-blood rare mobs, especially golems which roll in your char or chargers
- strongboxes: unided detonate dead - strongbox
- strongboxes: detonate dead - strongbox when u think it detonated already
- strongboxes: unided freezing strongboxes
- overall: corrupted blood
- overall: beyond bosses, semi-bosses, bameth with vaal DD
- reflect, especially ele reflect on shocked ground
- herald of the obelisk - mob-group
- shavronnes spikes in melee range, especially with blade vortex
- academy boss spikes in melee range, especially with blade vortex
- shooting miscreations if u get cursed with vulnerability
- porcupine-mobs which explode in spikes
- devourers
- stygian revenants
- colossal bonestalkers - heavy smash
- daressos dream: stunlock in the pits
- every chaos-damage monster if your chaos-res is bad, like the vaal-side-area-boss "snake", maligaro and the chaos-rain-leaping-frog-thingy (someone know the names?)
- dual/triple/quad - tempests in mobs/bosses
- village ruin boss or dog, if killed after the other and not nearly at once
- bearer-mods, which leave a explosing elemental bubble after their death. Especially flame bearers combined with mobs with explosive arrows - too many particles on the screen to avoid them
- if resists arent on max many mobs are dangerous, like dischargers in sewers and so on
- powerful crits and one-shots
- labyrinth traps
- ofc map bosses, map-mods and such
- ...game crashes, desync and lag...


feel free to post more, i will add it to main post!

.

Triskeriaki - unique rakango.
Triple/quadruple ghosted anything.

Residence dominus - touch of God - 1 shot (from 6K HP): I was bashing him with heavy strike - there was some lag and yeah, he did it twice as fast as normally; lockstep trying to catch up. :-)

Ripped to standard:

"

- porcupine-mobs which explode in spikes

I hate them but i hope ggg will not nerf them

Flame bearers with my srs partying with explosive arrow. Way too much red on the screen to see those

Rushed to crab 6sock for those juicy jewelers

yes, ripped in almost exact same way, just to frost bearers
it isn't bearers themselves, its them in combination with their drops that kill us
GGG pls nerf drops from bearers :)

nothing?

closest calls in this league was:

-bearers with a slight desync
-game crash on a T13 map
-Chaos warband leader in T14 (killed the bastard with no potions/portals left after a 25min "fight")
-huge pack of white sparkers in T13 chain map (6800-->200hp in a second)
-Village Ruin dog, luckily i had the nerves not to move before i hit my staunching/seething
-Zana's 75 Museum bossroom with my IIR gear(low armour)
-Bameth's DD (didn't notice that it was a voidspawn-pack)
-freeze box (didn't notice that my anti-freeze was empty, special thanks to Decoy Totem)
-Ice nova box (perhaps crit would have killed me?)

-Crematorium boss gave me lot's of close calls, so my answer is:

Magaera (rip 2013-2016)

porcupines with extra cold dmg and no antifreeze flask

map bosses can be excluded from that list as most will be new/ reworked.

My personal favorite: Heralds of the Obelisk
