OK, so here's something I've never seen before, and probably will never see again. I was doing some countess runs in NM, and on my way to the tower I saw a clump of five strangely colored blood hawk nests. "Hmm," I thought, "I've never seen blood hawk nests clumped up like that... and the color is odd... could that be... no, no way."
But I had to investigate, and sure enough, when my cursor passed over them, I beheld the horror: beneath the monster name was the threatening word "Minion."
That's right... a blood hawk nest BOSS PACK! :flip:
Anyone ever seen that before? I've played this game since day 1, and that's the first time for me...

I've never seen one, but I've read of it's happenings on this forum before.
That is VERY wierd. I've never seen it happen.
I met this first days in 1.10 - got screen, but dont have a site to post it there.

I saw one in the early days as well, and haven't seen one since.
Makes me wonder if Demon Huts or whatever they're called could spawn in A5.

I have seen a Champ pack ... the ghostly was funny!
They only spawn bloodhawk minions though, I strafed 'em. I think the boss nest might have been stone skined/PI, it took a while for my Witchyzon kill it even after Amp triggered.

Well, glad it wasn't just me ;)
What I'd really like to see now, though, is a boss pack of those Act 2 mummy-spitting sarcophagi. That could actually be dangerous... it can take a while to kill one of those coffins, let alone a boss pack of them... and if they were fe/ce? Yikes... silly, but dangerous.

Well seeing as they can't even be cursed in the first place...
That's what it was. It was funny though, kill a bunch of minions, ah, where is the boss? Did that a couple times before finding the boss nest pack.

imagine a boss pack of the lightning orbs in arcane... two of them can be nasty enough for a char with not enough res with that huge range... just imagine 5 of them, one with conviction... :surprise:
or the poison spitting swamp dwellers in a3, like by the council. a boss pack of them could be nasty with that knockback poison...

I've ran into a couple boss packs of Crow's nest. I think the thing was cursed and the nests were spitting out so many crows.. it was like Attack of the Birds. :lol:

I don't think so. The difference between the Crow's Nest and the Demon Hut is that the Crow's Nest is spawned as though it were a monster while the Demon Hut is spawned as though it were a terrain feature.
Generally said the Crow's Nest is an immobile monster that shoots crows. It dies like one and it drops like one.
The Demon Hut is a destructible terrain feature that spawns imps.
Have seen a Blood hawks nest Boss without Minions though
