Since 11.1 I have been running into some Rares that feel damn near unkillable.
I spent 5+ minutes this morning, locked in a stalemate with a rare in Cruel Church Level1.
Resists Elemental Damage
Gains an Endurance Charge on Hit
Regenerates Life.
So, with Frostbite up, and running Ice Spear with PCoC linked to get to 3 power charges, and then swapping over to Freezing Pulse (with Added Lightning Damage, and a Cold to Fire Gem) We stalemated sub 50% for quite a while. I he wasn't able to outdamage my Vitality, I wasn't able to Outdamage his Life Regen, which felt like it was regeninng 2x as fast as normal.
I'm assuming that towards the end, I finally was able to get enough Shock Stacks, and Burning Damage Rolling on Hit that I was able to kill him. But SERIOUSLY 5+ minutes?
Even gimping my way through Piety with my FP char because I forgot my portal scrolls (Go Go Vitality!) I bet it didn't take me as long as this guy.
