Eventually, it was discovered that this huge damage was a bug, and that while Multishot was supposed to increase the number of bolts, it wasn't supposed to increase it by ''that'' nuch. Once the bug was fixed, in D2 v1.10 and later, MSLEs became no more dangerous than regular LE bosses. This change was fair, but did take a lot of the challenge/fear out of the game.
With that history, fans were curious to see how the MSLE combo would play out in Diablo III. Multishot was a Boss Modifier during development, confirmed last in lateAugust 2010.[http://blues.incgamers.com/Posts/1/1/4/10/6548/diablo-iii-health-globes] <blue>It's not really new information. The BC'09 demo had champions and rares and a bunch of affixes. But yes, a rare can roll an Electrified and Multi-2010shot affix already, as well as a third... maybe Teleport! The most annoying of all affixes! At least as a lower level barbarian... </blue> That referred to the earlier version of [[Teleport]], but when it had been removed by releasecaused monsters to randomly bamf to a new location every few seconds. As for MSLE, so there's no telling if it would have modified Electrified not in any meaningful fashionDiablo III. At some point between August 2010 and May 2012, [[Multishot]] was removed from the game. No official explanation has ever been given for its absence.
