Its because of the farming nerf. It changed a lot of monster AI. Including trolls, happend about a month ago though. Suprised you hadn't noticed. Hope I helped.

yes, they changed the AI on monsters when nightfall was released making most farming builds with AoE in them pretty much useless because once monsters drop below 10% they flee.

Actually, it wasnt a farming nerf, it was just an AI change.....here's the details of that specific change.

Monsters no longer run from AoE damage when they are very healthy, or when they think they’re very close to killing their opponent.

Melee monsters are more intelligent about keeping themselves spread out, so that they don’t put themselves into a position where they’re highly susceptible to AoE attacks.



The part about melee monsters, that basically means if they are hurt, they will run away to heal then come back to the fight after they recover some life.
