The horned reaper tramples over Atlas, the Titan...
Dunno, but that's hard to imagine...

Are uniques not immune to trample?

They are not. Huan is known to trample many low-level uniques. They just show up again on another level though.

But surely mobs with trample should be immune to trampling ?

I don't see it the same way as an elemental immunity. Just because one monster is powerful enough, big enough, strong enough, to trample, there's always a bigger, more powerful monster. (Although Atlas isn't a "mob" with trample, this Titan being trampled by a Horned Reaper does sound strange. Maybe it was a very small percentage chance and the Horned Reaper got insanely lucky.)

IIRC trampling depends solely on the monster's level, i.e. their native depth. If the monster in their way is lower-level, then it gets trampled. Horned Reapers have a very high native depth, so they can trample just about anything in the game.

Huh, interesting. I guess experience is probably a better metric for "how strong is this monster" than native depth.

Well it feels really wrong that Atlas only gives 7k xp when you compare him with everything else at depth 76: master quylthulg 15k, bronze golem 26k, Ungoliant 35k, Great Wyrm of Law 26k...

In fact, looking at all the uniques in monster.txt, Atlas having only 7k xp is clearly a bug. Every unique past 2000ft gives more xp than that. Also one of the most dangerous unique with low xp reward is Kavlax: 3k (7-headed hydra 2k, Uvatha 10k). Should probably been pumped up too.
