to deal damage i need to go within 3 meter range
but the aura drains all my mana and kills me in like 2 seconds

Oof, good question.

Can't say i've had that combo but the mana drain alone is a PITA.

Perfectly balanced

hourglass trials without minimap and 25% reduced speed are pretty broken too

As a sorcerer, it feels very bad to encounter this kind of enemy in challenge-based areas like the Temple of Chaos...

freeze/electrocute and abandon map. another AN disaster.

Unfortunately enemies like that brick the run, so you best just leave and start a new run, better than dying and getting ♥♥♥♥♥♥ in the ass by the overzealous xp penalty.

I found that guy as well in Act 3 and I'm a ranged lightning Sorcerer. Took me 5 mins before I realised it only takes damage in melee range lol. In I went and fried him as I walked in circles and dodge rolled a lot.

In the circle your Mana don't drain.

The most disgusting combo is Shroud Walker + Mana Siphon + Prox Tangibility

There's absolutely nothing you can do to avoid getting killed if it's a fast enemy too - just have to accept the L

Siphon mana+flask charge burn is the most broken combo. Its "lol i touch you, now you cant do anything". Anything on top of that is just joke spice.

Some of these combinations are just so broken for certain characters...

There's a big worm that can spawn in Act 3 that has Flask drain + Mana Drain + Lightning aura and is faster than the flash on speed... so how are you supposed to beat that on a witch? You have no melee attack and you can't get away from it AND it pretty much instantly nukes all of your minions... it's 100% certain death

Also encountered plenty of enemies that have Promimal Tangibility + period invul + Enrage... those are a lot of fun too *cough*cough*

I met a rare the other day, it had the chaos bloom effect (so it spam spawns the chaos trees) had life regen, magma shield and extra health. As a warrior it was literally unkillable, it couldn't kill me either. So I just walked away and pretended I never met it lol

Likewise my ranger met a rare worm (the ones that sit under the floor and pop out sporadically) that had life regen and a bunch of other high damage mods, so it would only pop out when I stood still and let it attack me, I would then dodge away do say a third of its life in damage with 1 hit, and then it goes back underground, regenerates fully and rinse repeat. The only way to kill it would be stand still and let it wail on me, so I just walked away...

Some of the rare combos are legit harder than any boss

That's sure fun playing a class which is not designed to let things hit you

If your class is designed to not get hit you have a build issue. If you want to play a glass cannon, don't complain about "broken" Rare Enemies.

Most builds are not supposed to facetank rares with default autoattack cuz you have no mana.

Tangibility and mana siphon is not a bad combo, since you have to hug the mob anyway, which cancels the mana drain. Your flask should cancel out the dmg from the fire trail.
