For a historical list, see List of Archnemesis modifiers in Archnemesis league.

Curated list

Mods differ on magic monsters, but generally things like auras are not present on magic monsters and certain effects occur less frequently on magic monsters. Many of the rare mods do not appear on magic monsters at all as they are too complex. There are also three mods that only appear on magic monsters: Voidspawn of Abaxoth, Spirit Walker and Union of Souls. Rarer modifiers (towards the bottom of the list) also grant additional monster life bonuses and even better drops.

Version history

Version	Changes
3.18.0d	The 3.18.0d patch has introduced a few changes to the Archnemesis modifiers. Read Version 3.18.0d § Monster modifier changes for details.
3.18.0c	The Invulnerable monster modifier has been replaced with the Benevolent Guardian modifier previously found as a Nemesis modifier. This causes the monster with this modifier to apply an Immunity buff to nearby allies for a short duration. If the original monster is slain, affected allies lose the Immunity buff. Other monsters that have this modifier cannot be given the Immunity buff. Toxic Volatiles have had their base speed reduced, and now accelerate over time. They also now explode after 10 seconds at their location if they have not exploded already. Reduced the size and improved the visuals of the Ring from the Mana Siphoner monster modifier. The Hasted and Arcane Buffer monster modifiers will now be first encountered on level 6 monsters.
3.18.0b	The hotfix after 3.18.0b patch has introduced a few changes to the Archnemesis modifiers. Read Version 3.18.0b § Monster and Modifier Changes for details.
3.18.0	Archnemesis modifiers have been rebalanced and added to the core game. Existing Magic and Rare monster modifiers have been replaced with Archnemesis modifiers. Rare monsters will be found with two Archnemesis modifiers by default. From Act 6 onwards, there is a chance to find monsters with three modifiers, and in Maps, a chance for finding monsters with four modifiers. Magic monsters will be found with one Archnemesis modifier by default. The life, experience, increased item quantity and rarity of Magic and Rare monsters are no longer primarily determined by the monster's rarity, these are now primarily determined by the type of modifiers on the monster itself. A monster with more, or rarer, modifiers will have more life, increased item quantity and rarity, and grant more experience. Archnemesis modifiers are able to be gained by characters through sources such as Headhunter and Inspired Learning, though you are only able to have one instance of each modifier at any given time.
3.17.0	Added to the game.
