Or they just think one-shotting people counts as difficult. See: Baal http://web.archive.org/web/2001062900131.../baal.html
Or MSLEBs until 1.10.
Or Nihlathak.
Or Extra Strong Fanaticism Enchanted (another real treat for melee.)
Or LEB Conviction Enchanted.
Or exploding midgets.
Or FEB pre-1.10.
Or Gloams. (Not one shot, but less than a second of 5-6 bolts at the same time. Although they were pretty good at one-shotting too in 1.10.)
It's sad, really. In D1 you'd have to pretty much try to get one-shotted unless you simply never put anything in Vitality. D2 came to rely upon this for challenge, apparently forgetting some people actually enjoy Hardcore. One shots belong in Contra and Final Fantasy games. Elsewhere they're pretty cheap - and lazy.
