[[Orbiter]] is an [[Elite Affix]] that spawns on Random Elites and some Uniques in Diablo III [[Reaper of Souls]].<ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/?p=372675 BlizzCon 2013 Monster Affixes Report] - IncGamers.Com, 10/11/13</ref>

The Orbiter effect creates a large ball of lightning in some random spot near the Elite or Unique that spawns it. The initial lightning ball becomes the sun, sitting stationary while a dozen or more smaller lightnign orbs rotate (orbit) around it in a slow circular motion. Players need not fear the central ball, but the orbiting lighting deal considerable damage, and several of them hitting at once can hurt even the best-geared hero.

'''Orbiter'''
* '''Monster Level Minimum: '''30
* '''Available to:''' Random Elites and some [[Uniques]]. (Not Champions or Minions.)
* '''Damage Type:''' Lightning.
* '''Additional Resistances:''' Unknown.
* '''Can Not Spawn With:''' No limits.

==Strategy==

The central Orbiter lightning orb seems to spawn randomly somewhere within about fifty yards of the Elite or Unique with the talent. It's not dangerous, but a moment later a dozen or more lightning balls will appear. These slowly orbit around the central orb, dealing shocking lightning damage to any hero or pet nearby. The orbs all describe a circular path, but they move so slowly and do not persist long enough to complete anything near one full orbit of their "sun."

Orbiter functions as an interesting sort of [[Denial of Area]] effect, forcing players to move away from the greatest concentration of orbiting balls. These seem to be fully random, and several may appear right on top of a character, or they may cluster up far from anyone, dealing no real harm at all.
