Eternal Knights waaaay too strong.

Please look into eternal knight's, they shoot way too many skulls back at you and are unavoidable. I am lvl 74 spark, mom archmage and can kill myself from hitting a normal version. I just ran into a rare that I stood literally no chance against. This is the only mob I have had an issue with. All others are fine so far and I don't have much else to complain about. I'm enjoying the new game! Console textures and loading is a bit slow but I assume that is all being worked on aswell. Keep up the good work.

I do second the Eternal Knight reflect mechanic being a bit powerful. I ran into one in Act 1 Cruel that almost killed me with the skulls and the the later ones I fought in the same zone did basically nothing.
I cleared the full map full of rare eternal knights that also grouped together and I am archmage spark. It was the most painful and extended running back and forth for 20+ minutes or more.
I really don´t like them and think they should have some cooldown on their reflect mechanic. But if you run in to melee range and dodge their attack you can spam away without them reflecting for a couple of seconds.
hell, those damn knights were already a pain in the ass in act 1, and now you’ve given them CHAOS damage?? Which barely any gear provides resistance against. ARE YOU SERIOUS??? Why the hell are you making regular mobs harder than BOSSES??? What kind of balance is this if I easily took down THREE bosses in a row, and now I’m running from REGULAR MOBS!!! Feels like I’m back at level 1 with no armour. What a hell??

UPD: Alright, I figured it out. These knights cast chaos orbs only in response to my spells. Since I have high DPS, they spam those damn orbs quickly (there's barely any cooldown, and they flood narrow corridors where dodging is almost impossible). Four orbs, and you're back to the checkpoint. However, they don't react to all spells. I have a staff with Lightning Bolt, and they don't respond to it at all. You can also use skills that apply statuses. Ball Lightning, Lightning Orbs, and similar skills work pretty well. Hopefully, this helps someone....

Even with 75 chaos resist one knight melt me ... Meanwhile Monk can easily kill them with their melee/range attack without worries and they can even glitch their attack through walls and doors ...
is this even chaos dmg? im CI and they rape my ass
plz nerf asap this is not fun
As someone who mostly uses incinerate, i never even knew these guys existed until i made an alt today. I had no idea what a pain in the butt they are if you hit them. lol

Agree they need a cooldown or something.
