Rare monsters retailate mechanics make me quit this game

The league is awesome and i would really like to play more, but 9 out of 10 times i die is because whenever i hit a rare mob some bullshit invisible stuff appears on me, and detonates a second later with so much damage that i get oneshotted from full hp.

Don't even try to convince me it's my fault because it always happen when i expect it the least and i simply always react too late, or realize something was on me when i'm already seeing the resurrect screen. if you can't make it at least more noticeable then remove it from the game. It's infuriating!

I get this shit is in the game for a while now, but i didn't had the intent to play until now, because of these sadistic elitist bullshit is bloating the game for years now, and don't have the nerve to play anymore, it's really mentally exhausting to play, you can't chill for a fucking second because the game somehow manages to kill you the exact moment you do.

I feel the same way. I used to like league starts years ago but nowadays build progression just feels awful. I honestly enjoy reading patch notes and theorycrafting in PoB more than I like playing the new league.

Im pretty sure GGG's intent is that you "invest" in your build to the point that you can ignore all these BS mechanics. But since there is so much power/content creep they just keep adding more and more of them so you have to invest even more and more, just to make the game not feel terrible to play.

I was wondering why I got suddenly oneshotted on empty screen (shortly after killing all mobs) like 3 times in different maps. Certainly didn't see visuals from usual BS capable of this, like DD or purple crystals. Maybe it was this then.

Brainstorm idea: maybe make visual telegraph for the most damaging mob attacks?:)

It's your fault. You even just described how it's your fault. If you want to go brainless god-mode, then you need to learn what the on-death effects are and plan your character accordingly. Even easier now with the buff to endurance charges.

And every on-death effect has at least a 2 second timer or something like that, plenty of time to press the "oh shit" blink skill. Can't aim? Set your blink to "attack without moving" and it'll move you backward which is almost 100% guaranteed to be safety.

You are running a tabula and have zero defenses. Actually no layers at all. And you blame the game for your deaths and refuse input from others that would actually solve your problems? Definitely a you issue.

I do have "oh shit" button, but where is the warning? I was standing at full health at clear ground, not even corpses around because they were all ice-shattered, then I drop dead 1-2 seconds later. Have invisible buffs on all my auras, so pretty sure there was no warning.

Is this post serious?
