Vortex
,no edit summary
[[Vortex]] is a [[Boss Modifier]] in Diablo III that can be found on Champions and Bosses, but not boss minions. It enables the boss or champions to yank your hero right up to them, which can be very dangerous against hard-hitting melee attackers. It's even worse when facing a boss pack with [[Molten]] or [[Plagued]] or other AoE attacks, since the pull will bring a character right into the killing field, sometimes resulting in virtually instant death.

There is no hit % chance on Vortex, and monsters cast it periodically, generally every 15 or 20 seconds, though they may do so more or less often. Vortex can not be dodged or avoided or resisted, and surviving against it requires a player to be ready to react the instant the Vortex is cast, pulling them into danger.
