I ran afoul of a boss group of Gloams, myself. Not pretty, and with 90% resist lightning it wasn't doing much for my life orb, which was flushing like a toilet.
My newest PITA award goes to Blood Lords, however. Physical Immune by nature, which doesn't stop them from being DAMNED fast and still having that lovely Frenzy ability. I used to be able to hold my ground against Frenzytaurs... this is another kettle of Minos altogether.
My newest pet peeve: Swarming. The act when moving two steps has the ability to set off sufficient monsters that you find yourself completely surrounded (and in blocklock, most likely), such that even 30% faster run/walk is insufficient to get away. Nasty asty asty.
Edit: I am NOT convinced that Crushing Blow is kicking in. Can someone pop that section of the MPQ and find out if there are diminished effects in Nightmare and Hell?

Garnered Wisdom --
If it has more than four legs, kill it immediately.
Never hesitate to put another bullet into the skull of the movie's main villain; it'll save time on the denouement.
Eight hours per day of children's TV programming can reduce a grown man to tears -- PM me for details.
