Soul Eater mobs SHOULDNT be able to infinite stack

Well, is not that long. Whoever designed the Soul Eater mod never played with a build like Summon Raging Spirit nor tested the mod with a build like that.

If the mob is inside a group (more than likely in this game), when you used more than 20 Spirits the mob attacks so fast starts bugging itself, you cannot see it attack.

Well, in short, Soul Eater should be capped at a max amount. Letting them stack forever while lasting forever is not a smart decition in any scenario.

If anyone thinks is fun to have a monster with infinite attack speed, be happy and let the team know it, for me is badly designed.

You know this game heavily incentivises you to focus on one damage type and has damage type immunities, yeah?

The charitable take is that they intentionally want different builds to have different strengths and weaknesses; builds such as SRS are safer (and others might argue have lower skill ceilings) than some builds - that mod takes an aspect of the build and punishes you for it.

In practice all it means is occasionally you can’t (trivially) kill literally every enemy and need to run away from one. I get it’s annoying, but if I ranked all of the issues with PoE, I don’t think I’d personally put this in the top 100. I’m undecided if I’d consider it a bug or a feature.

I agree, it is stupid.

In ultimatum league I was playing self cast Wave of Conviction build. Had Herald of Ash too. The wave covers a large area and one cast kills tons of mobs. I was 1-3 shotting rares and completing ultimatums fully mostly. Was only at T5 or something if I remember correctly.

So the monsters spawn out of thin air even as the wave is already launched and some die off-screen.

In the corner of my eye at the edge of the screen I saw something go at absolutely mental speed and the next thing I knew I was dead. Did not even have time to press health flask. The thing ran to me and clubbed me to death with a few MASSIVE hits at incredible attack speed.

So one moment there are no rares on my screen and the next frame I have a rare going super-sayan on my face and the next frame I'm dead.

It was HC character, and I'm still mad about it. Quit the league there and then.

cant kill every enemy? why on earth would you defend infinite soul eater, that insta kills you offscreen
if it is the intented way how currently soul eaters work, they get so strong, it is impossible for anyone to kill it while fed from current league mechanics, harbringers, delirium, abyss, strongbox etc
you can not counter it it any way, if you pop a mechanic a rare spawns with soul eater and becomes unkillable
