Infinitely respawning enemies. WTF ?!

Sometimes I meet infinitely respawning enemies. Usually a pair of them.
It could be some sort of ability. However even if I kill them nearly simultaneously, with a fraction of second, they respawn over and over again. I even tried to distantiate them from each other.

WTF IS THAT ?!

Is it a bug ? Is it a kind of anti-bot protection ? Player harassment mechanic ?

No, its a mini boss with infinite minions. The bullshit part is, that they will get on you, with the boss being up to two or three screens away in any direction. It's really fucking dumb imo, and others. Has been brought up a few times too.

LOL, I had two skeletal priests nearby and their boss 100 meters ahead.
And they also summoned skeleton warriors.

I GAINED EXPERIENCE FOR EACH KILL. I could easily turn it into infinite Minecraft XP farm.

lol - while possible, i think you would find that experience to be really sub par. But, try it out, never know.

Only a small notch in the terrain and repeating mouse macros needed.

First time I came across these was hilarious. A big pack of mobs charging at me that just died and insta-respawned over and over until I died. I had no idea what was going on :P

As mentioned, the issue with this rare modifier is that the rare itself may never been seen or aggroed by the player, yet its minions will chase you to the ends of Wraeclast. This was an issue at release (0.1.0) and hasn't been addressed.

One solution might be to have them physically re-spawn within a limited radius of the rare.

Typically you do not gain experience or loot from re-spawned mobs. If you are gaining experience for killing them again, bet that this will be the fix eventually applied.
