In Neutron Decay, where is the Positron?

Looking at standard diagrams for Free Neutron Decay, it expels an Electron and an Electron Antineutrino. Neutrons are supposed to be 2 down-1 up quark though, and in an unstable nucleus a Proton can "eat" an Electron to become a Neutron. (there is also rare Proton Decay, where a Positron and Neutrino are ejected to become a Neutron, but thats radioactive stuff)

So, in theory, isnt the Neutron creating an Electron to let off excess energy? where is the Positron?

or, even stranger, do we potentially have the structure of a Neutron incorrect? Ive tried googling this for weeks and never find any discussion on this part of the topic(or the positron question). Please help me out here

Are there enemies that ignore Energy Shield?

So I'm a rookie. Just trying to level and get through the campaign. No fancy map modifiers. To my understanding, Energy Shields block damage with the exception of some specific modifiers that are outlin on enemies.

But I keep getting these rare mobs, with no mention of anything relating to energy shield, that keeps ONE SHOTTING ME. No damage to shield (in fact if I survive a hit, the shields are untouched it goes right to health), almost always ignores any taunt minions I try to throw at them.

With the Vindigo I could understand, since it's an explicit skill that lets them ignore shields. But this thing just shoots electric projectiles at me and instashots me.

Now, I am running Ghost Shroud, so idk if it's a weird UI thing where I'm regaining shield after I get hit/die. If I gotta grind gold to remix my skill tree again, fair enough. But this is so much more of a wall than any bosses have been. What's going on?
