Empowered Elites (Cold Enchanted) – Literally the only build I can manage with this is my always-unstoppable Barbarian, but almost no other class has access to that, so it’s a lot of chain-stunning elites that have the capacity to kill you more than pretty much any other type in the game. One wrong move and you die, and it’s just not worth bothering with.Ģ. Backstabbers – Enemies deal 150% damage from behind you and I mean, when are you not usually surrounded by mobs on all sides? Plus there are a million times the game will just auto-spawn enemies all around you where there’s nothing you can do about it.

Melee/Ranged Defenders – 40% less damage to close enemies and 60% less damage to distant enemies? While melee/ranged builds can do the opposite one, otherwise you are just…doing way less damage for the entire duration of a dungeon? Why? Why would you ever want to bother with that?ģ. Only okay if you’re running a very, very distance-based range build.Ĥ. These explosions do big damage, and if you’re running say, a spider-based dungeon with all those tiny spiders, the explosions stack and can just one-shot you. Death Pulse – I didn’t used to mind this one until I realized I was probably dying to it more than any other modifiers, at least on my melee builds.

Resource Burn – While it is sometimes possible to power through this modifier or create one that isn’t that resource intensive, it is deeply annoying for most builds to reach for your resource-based attacks and have them rarely be there.ĥ.
