There seems to be an interaction between poison damage and charmed monsters from elvensong.
I am not 100% sure, but it seems that monsters dying from poison while charmed don't actually die and gain MASSIVE regeneration forever.
This leads to invulnerable monsters chasing you everywhere you go.
Easy skill-breaking bug to reproduce.
wich monster class got this bug happens to ? and
in wich act and wich game difficulty ?
whats your charlvl and what are the skill lvls that you used at it ?
it may happen that the poison spell does not enough dmg to kil the actually mobs, depends on your charlvl and the arealvl/monsterlvl and there resistances and after the charm duration was over, they just regenerated there hp pool
Happened during normal leveling (lvls 6 to 30):
In act I with spear blood rogues
In act II with "The pack" and some beetles
I just stopped using elvensong entirely at that point.
Using maxed poison flash and plague avatar. Both skills doing way enough damage to kill. The issue specifically happens when I use both poison damage and elvensong. Never when I am not charming (meaning that there IS an interaction somewhere).
I remember back when Dire Charm tree was a thing, Laz advocated a "legitimate good strat" of poisoning ennemies, then charming them. They recieved buffs or something. Memory a bit woozy on that. But I digress.
As I said, I can consistently reproduce the bug (super regenerating monsters) even though I am not quite sure what triggers it. It being the "death while charmed" is just a guess.
yes, looks like a bug to me aswell, that should be fixed, or been tested whats going on there
i can remember the old charm tree from druid yes
there's still one item left that was featured back in the day
was a rly fun build, you had to use sacrifices, as it apears as oskil on the runeword also, and could spawn
Black Deathand
Bonegrinderas as elite version, guess the docs has been upgraded but not the forum item data for this item....and the skill tree has changed long time ago.
you could give the screen of army, huge flat boost of dmg or thorn dmg, was literaly game breaking
...now its an underused, basic runeword
Hermanubis
