I've experienced several game "freezes" as a result of Untainted Zealots.

Here is what happens:

• An Untainted Zealot charges me while Bleeding Edge projectiles are circling around me.
• The Untainted Zealot's animation to fly up into the air after impaling my character starts.
• The Untainted Zealot is damaged by Bleeding Edge.
• The animation is interrupted by the Untainted Zealot's defenses being broken and entering a vulnerable state.
• From here, everything just stops. The Untainted Zealot does not continue the attack animation. My character cannot move or perform any actions. All other enemies on screen just stand around. Everything on screen just defaults to idle animations.
• The Untainted Zealot eventually recovers from the vulnerable state, and joins in with standing around in an idle animation.

When this happens, all I can do is open the Pause Menu and Exit the game. Thus, I've spent time, gold, and Primordial Essence for nothing.

It's worth noting that when this has happened. returning to Main Menu and then logging back in on that character did not resolve being frozen and stuck in an idle animation. I had to completely close and restart the game .

On another note regarding Untainted Zealots, I would like to suggest that their attack build-up animation when they prepare to charge be made longer / slower. Often times, I am utterly unable to react fast enough to their attack sequence. Their charging attack seems to be impossible to dodge unless I am already moving out of the way when their animation sequence starts.
