What's the deal with the blue lasers?

[Beebo42]

Okay, I can't figure out what is spawning these things or how you're supposed to deal with them. Three times now I've died at full health because one of these lasers just spawned out of nowhere right on top of me, I go from full to dead in less than a second. I don't know what is causing them, there's no boss present and no especially powerful monsters that I can see. Is this some sort of trap I'm triggering?

I've had the same thing happen to me a couple of times. They dissapear after a few seconds and are easy enough to avoid when you see them coming but when they just appear right next to the character there's no way to get out of it alive.

Some tougher monsters are dropping an orb when they die.

Orange, Blue, Green, Yellow, every orb has a different effect, and can be easily avoided. When the monster dies, the ball spawns and jump toward the sky before relapsing on the ground. Just take some distance when you see a blue orb. In my opinion it's one of the easiest to avoid. The laser hasn't an great range and moves very slow. Just do not touch the source of it.

Thanks, now that I know what to watch out for I can usually get out of the way. From what I've seen, only the "elite" monsters use orb attacks on death. The ones that usually get me though, are the flies. Flies seem to have a high probability of being elite when summoned but they still die so fast I hardly get a chance to notice, and that's when I don't notice the orb flying up into the air...

Heh i even made the shadows of orbs be less alpha to be more "visible" ^^

Hah I find the exploding ones are the ones that get me. I always spot the laser orbs XD
