While playing the latest version of this pack, I would randomly see a fire effect floating around at high speeds, which turned out to be an invisible super fast zombie burning in the sun. It ran right up to me and did massive damage (Well, massive for Bronze armor) killing me in 1-2 hits. I've now seen a few of them, the last straw being one which was wearing a gold helm, meaning I couldn't simply wait for the burn to kill it like I had been doing with the others I had seen. This can't possibly be an intentional thing, they're not killable under normal circumstances as far as I can tell, and make travelling rather difficult. Has anybody else run into these abominations? Are they a bug or intentional?

They're probably intentional, special mobs like this are a seasonal thing that mod authors sometimes release to celebrate milestones in their mod development, or anniversaries, or whatever.

If you know they're coming, your best bet would be to hole up somewhere quick before you get surrounded and pounded by them, until you can get high damage weapons built. Also, get a water bucket real fast, even the mobs can't resist a water flow pushing them away from you, plus it'll turn off their fire effects, making them somewhat easier to deal with! :D Personally, I like dealing with them using a Portal Gun, therefore I only play modpacks which include that mod. :D

That would be a blight from the difficult life mod. Mostly try to avoid them, as they are incredibly strong.
 
three blocks of dirt... that's all you need.

Pillar straight up, they can't reach you. If you have a bow, you can pick them off.. slowly.
