MSLE almost non-existant?

I've been comparing and contrasting my old MF runs to how they're going now in the new patch. And from what I remember, I could only finish about 60% of my runs on Meph or Baal 'cause one of the big baddies before them would have MSLE and would either kill me before I knew they were there or I'd notice it just as I'd have like 12 life out of 900. Doing my runs in the Pit lately, I'm seeing quite a few Fire and Lit Enchanted uniques (and MY does that Fire HURT if you're not looking for it), but I have only seen a MSLE once in three days. ...Has Blizz cut back on the MSLEers, only to up the fire damage on the Fire enchanteds? Believe me, I'm GLAD if that's true, even though I'm usually lacking in resists, 'cause MSLE was the bane of my existance in 1.09. Any word on this anyone?
 
I'm not sure about the relative rarity of MSLEBs in 1.10, but I can tell you that the FE damage from the explosion is bugged. It is the bane of any HC player's existence. Especially if the Hell Ancients spawn with it.

--SB
 
MsLE's ain't got nothing anymore. Comparitively they are rather weak in 1.10. I'm much more worried when I see a LE/CE or the dreaded LE/CE/FE. Those hurt. As for their frequency...couldn't tell ya. sorry.
 
msle doesn't hurt that much anymore. the cb they cast does not carry mutiple shot bonus with it, not anymore. FE, however is a bug. you see the formation here, everytime blizzard try to fix things, there's always something else going wrong.:D i think you should find out more about the 1.10 bugs before venturing further. u just started right?
 
Yeah, I just picked up 1.10 less than a week ago. I read that the FE explosion is bugged (lots of complaints about the Ancients and Pindle), but I didn't know that the bolts of an MSLE don't carry the multiple shot property. Cool. That's good to know. Makes me rest a bit easier.

Unfortunately, I don't have a melee char that far into the game yet. All my MF runs have been with my Bowazon, so I've only been caught with a FE explosion once, but I noticed the damage was significantly higher than it used to be. And the only MSLE I've seen so far, as soon as I saw it I hit Esc and jumped right out of the game, so I didn't catch any damage from him. Didn't want to stick around and find out that he didn't hurt as much anymore... and my lit resistance is at -61, so... yeah, I was running away before it was too late. :bow:
 
yeah same here. my 1st encounter with an msle in 1.10 was shenk with my ww druid. i wanted to press esc, but i was so tempted to smack him a few times in the new patch....only to realize he's a wuss :lol: . this was back in the 1st beta. FE is not much of a problem. but an FE/CE is instant death on anything.

and don't worry, gloams will be your new 'bane of existance'. :D
 
I already hated those guys with a passion. I always have low resists, and they always ate me alive in act 4. It's another of those enemies I'd almost always Esc out no matter where I saw them or how good a roll I was on. ...Thanks for giving me something to look forward to, everyone!... *grumble, grumble*

Well for 1.1 make sure you stock up on resists, without them its a quick "you've lost XP and gold" and after a swearing session restart...

On a good note, Cain will always talk to you.
 
Watch out for FE/LE bosses. It seems the FE explosion damage is added to -each- of the charged bolts - very deadly.
Another thing about LE bosses is that in the new patch they start releasing those bolts when at about 1/2 health, and the bolts seem to become more powerful when the boss has 1/4 health (approximate, I don't know the exact number).
 
Hmm, thanks for the extra info, esd. That's cool to know. Blizzard throws another twist at me. Good thing I learned it here BEFORE I got out into the real world... I mean, game world.... no, it's the real world.
 
They exist but the multiple stacking of charged bolts doesn't seem to exist anymore in 1.10.

It use to be that many of the charged bolts would be stacked in other words one graphic of charged bolt would deal 3 or more damages then what should be coming out. This is the same problem we now have with FE, Gloams and a few others. What adds to the problem is the minions picking up asp3ects of their boss. Oh great now instead of 1 MSLE we have 6 to deal with!! MSLE is not a big deal anymore but FE Oh crap!!
