My issue was with the one shot kill lightning from off the screen, not the disappearing and reappearing. To be honest, after some consideration I have come to the conclusion that any non-boss mobs that can one shot a character with a decent amount of health is stupid and unfun.
Blizzard will avoid just that, this time around. All of their designers talk about "unfun" gameplay aspects and how they should be avoided almost at all costs.
I think the technology has progressed enough that if they do return, they will make more sense from a gameplay perspective.
I think the Devs realize that it wasn't really a matter of skill killing these mobs, but more random. Also, W/O Maphack players would have no clue where they were(think walking into the throne). Getting gibbed especially in hardcore, by mobs you can't see, isn't really that fulfilling of a way to die.
