I skip a lot more champion packs in Inferno now, there are just some things that hit too hard or kite my medium gear monk that make it not worth it.

I've read that Whimseyshire Inferno is the place to go to farm so my goal is to get to Act 3 to get the new recipe and tear up Ponys and Teddies for my phat lewts.  DRILLING AND WOMANLINESS

I got a Unique Mob Tremor out in the fields part of Act 3, which had Invulnerable Minions.  Thing wrecked my monk like 4 times before I managed to get it somewhere out of the way and avoid it from then on.  Worst part was when my freaking companion aggroed the thing from off the screen and pulled it back onto me once while I was trying to get past where I had left it the first time.

You call it an accident. I call it justice.

My new favorite from last night... In Hell, out getting Kuell's blood. I come across one of those nice gold elite golems that climbs up from the ground along with the little mini-me minions. I counted 8 mini mes...all invulnerable. And the gold mob, plagued, molten, invulnerable minions. His MO was to surround me with his minions so I couldn't move, drop his green pool of fuck this along with the molten shit, and then proceed to pound on me. Dead in less than 20 seconds.

But seriously, 8 invulnerable minions? Fuck right off with that.

I had the same but on a Naga (the ones that vanish once you get too far away and are quick as fuck).

During my stay in Hell I had:

teleporting mob (one of the things at the End of Act 3), plagued, molten, invulnerable minions
naturally fast mob with invisibility (Nagas), mortar, [molten, plagued, arcane enchanted], invulnerable minions (all three combinations)

and my all time favorite

naturally fast, naturally hard-hitting mob, shielding, mortar, invulnerable minions. That I had to avoid.

In my personal experience the random number generator in my games has a fondness for "fuck you  DH" affixes and especially "invulnerable minions"

I'm looking forward to Inferno, when they can stick another affix to already ridiculously hard combos.

Not only do they stick another affix on it, they add another so you now have 4 elites in a pack.

IIRC the recipie only shows up after you beat either Diablo or the guy before him who drops the plans, so you basically have to finish act four.  I might be wrong.

Or find someone with an act4 waypoint for farming ghosts (people advertise selling the waypoint for like 10-25k on the official trade forum) and you can buy the pattern right away

Got up to Inferno Diablo last night and bought the pattern then.  Haven't killed him yet.  Not sure exactly when it appeared there but it's pretty late in the act.

Planes? Shit, I'm terrified to get in my car now!

The pattern becomes available as soon as you get the quest to kill Diablo.
