agree with most of the posts here.  the fear is not even bad.  you were probably unlucky to get it 5 times in a row, but as far as i can tell youve only encountered one nightmarish monster.  I personally think they are fine as is.  i can barely tell a difference against them except for its "different" than what ive been used to in beta.

If all else fails, im sure someone will post a walkthrough for you post release

I think its random chance. I have encountered a nightmarish enemy and I didnt get frightned even one time.

I disagreed, this group of mob should not be nerf. All of the mobs ability cast their ability on a random timer Therefore, sometime you won't get fear and sometime you do. This is how Diablo's sereis has always been, and that is why a lot people like it. This is especially true for myself. I like the random prevalence of the game.

Another example I can think of is when peeps cannot get the loot they want, and they go on the forum and right up a thread about the loot drop rate should increase. I seen these kind of post many time, and every time a Blizzard's employees would responded with "It is the random nature of Diablo game." Thus, this is my point is that, the random nature of the Diablo's series is what some peeps should assimilate, and embrace it.

I love it...  When a mob doesn't have any random affixes, most think the beta is "way too boring and easy"..  Put Nightmarish on a pack, and a nerf is wanted..  LOL, just wait for when the game actually gets hard.

It is fine. By your logic everything can be annoying. Monster rooted you to the ground for few seconds? Annoying! Monster caster a wall behind you and you can't escape? Annoying!
