I just finished the key quest in the unearhted ruins and was literally 320xp from level, and then I opened the door right by the entrance way. Suddenly, a giant "seeker golem" comes chargin down the hall. I tried to move but got nothing except the sword icon across the entire screen. By the time I tried to change to the top view I was dead, with a whole days work post 8.2 patch down the toilet.
What is the best way to handle trying to run from large creatures inside? If I had the chance I would have ran at the sight of this.

I would say that in that situation, using the WASD keys to get out (because the mouse won't work) would be justified until you can actually click by the monster.

If that doesnt work, just log off and in. That will make the mob disapear.
