Lightning Totem Enemies instantly delete you with FULL RESISTS and Soul of Garukhan perk

I swear this is the only rare unit modifier who kills me consistently throughout the game no matter what within 2 seconds and I can't even dodge it for the most part. It's slightly unfair considering no warning when they spawn up on you when the rare unit is off the screen. This video is an example without a MASS amount of units. The only other things that kills me a bunch of course what I am expecting to, which is Blood and Chaos damage. There is no reason with MAX resists I should be dying to anything lightning in less than 2 seconds! If I had negative resists then it would be understandable.

Max 75% lighting resists
Soul of Garukhan = 60% Reduced Effect of Shock on you
STILL DEAD IN LESS THAN 2 seconds.

Please fix this.

It seems like you're in Act 10. For that point in the game / campaign your life is too low. Your total life + energy shield here seems just around 2000.

For comfortable play, a guideline is to gain 400 life at the end of each Act. That would make around 3600+ life in the beginning Act 10. You are currently at less than half that.

Your character seems to have Purity of Elements which makes you immune to all elemental ailments, so the shock didn't affect your death here. I'd say it was the normal damage from the lightning totems (they can do a lot of damage, even without shock) and there are 4 or 5 of them surrounding you. Having maximum resistance wouldn't do much if you don't have enough life so survive after the damage mitigation.
