I'm just friendly to entities anymore, overtly so. I tap into their frequency and the thread of their true being, and match it within myself. And behave very chummy.
among more negative entities:
Some entities have ill intent, but lose interest in it when they feel understood and/or accepted as they are.
Some entities are a little bit driven away by friendliness.
Some entities become very nervous when treated overtly as a non-threat.
Some entities are kinda intimidated by the subtle inference "I know where you live"
Some entities genuinely enjoy a more positive interaction now & then.
Some entities see themselves mirrored in among the myriad threads of self, and aren't into being deliberately self destructive.
Most negative entities lose track of their predator/prey sense of dynamic when their overture of which role they'd like to play is not reciprocated. Or just feel disappointed at a lack of negative effect.
Some entities just want to go elsewhere if they realize you would be kinda intrigued by an interesting challenge, but don't really see them as one.
Some entities need a little extra push in their direction of thinking. A few realize this is the case, and reflect carefully when they realize I've been very minimalist about it.
As for sorts of energy ...every energy has it's place in the multiverse. And I'm pretty closely aligned with the multiverse as a whole. I don't regard any sort of energy as 'bad' exactly. This somewhat undercuts the whole 'conflict' dynamic.
Even just feeling very calm and at ease with an unwelcome overture can considerably re-frame things for an entity.
Also I had a dramatic decrease in negative entity events after one situation where a line was crossed, and I made an example. In hindsight it could have been a 'useful' negative interaction, as it tread into memories of events I don't cherish, so I probably under-examine them. The entity may have been a part of my own psyche even. But the way it played out was just not acceptable, and I pretty dramatically "put a head on a post". In my current state, I would have approached it somewhat more thoughtfully. Literally anything can be a learning experience. But it is what it is.
You meet all kinds of entities. But I haven't had an actual 'conflict' in quite a few years. Diplomacy is a fine art. But I'll grant it would be fairly hollow without the 'capacity' to be less civil. good cop / bad cop i guess. But mostly, just being at one with the 'all' tends to make friends rather than enemies. And being aligned towards a focal point of a grander whole of consciousness, doesn't really come across as an inviting target for ill intent.
Why not just make more of the energy in question, and give some back? it's the neighborly thing to do. You did say it was pleasurable.
I guess I lean more towards "I'm sorry, that can't coexist with my goals and interests, so that's not happening. But it's nice to meet you. Oh that's a delightful intimidation effect there. I like it. Especially that dark ominous fringing aroma at the edges, nice touch. But why so interested in me? Flattery will get you everywhere hehe. What brings you to my neck of the woods? Tell me about yourself." You know, being courteous to their sense of sovereign independent consciousness.
One must ask themselves, why an entity or energy seems alien or disenfranchising. What is it exactly which creates this emotional response? Purity is kind of a one-trick pony. A vast nature, is somewhat incongruent with being easily put off. Usually people are most put off by mirrors which show parts of themselves which they do not want to see. Not always, but it's a pretty common theme.
I agree definitely with a 'cleaned out' energy body though. It's a little bit tricky to define what is "outside influence" exactly, because really there is no absolute defining border between "I" and "other". Not that it's difficult to tell the difference, but literally that the difference depends entirely upon what 'scale' of self you regard it from. So it's kinda... a convoluted thing to approach. Helpful to imagine it as kinda cone-shaped, relative in scale to how much individual being-ness you're beholding it from. But certainly a more streamlined & focused/focus-able self is useful. And you want the energy body to meet the body-body in a way that's equally singular.
I dunno how much sense I'm making with the words I'm choosing. Picking a lot of words which seem not quite exactly right for what I mean. Which probably means "word salad" unfortunately. Or at best painting a somewhat distorted picture of what I'm thinking.
oh such a space hippy..

jk

I know I'm exaggerating.
And actually I agree, mostly, in general. Because in general, it's very unlikely for generic person to go in to certain places, engage in certain activities where/when they would likely to encounter anything really "bad" in more general sense, by definition, far beyond just simply "disturbing", "uncomfortable", "misunderstood" etc.
From my own personal experience, absolute majority of so called "bad" experiences were simple "misunderstandings" of some kind. And often "bad" depends a lot individual at hand, personal conditioning and what not.
If a devoted Christian get a visit from some ubi entity, for whatever reason, that's bad, such tainted soul should jump out their bed and pray to their lord almighty to save their sinful soul from damnation.
On the other hand, if for example I get such guest, it's a ..

..no praying required.
Or just because some guest come wearing giant horns, or whatever else that's considered "not good" in their respective conditioning, I can't say it's not "bad" for them, maybe it is, for them specifically, maybe only for them. It hard to generalize and apply the same logic for everyone.
I have different conditioning, opposite to a lot of people, if I see an entity wearing white fluffy wings (figuratively, or literally), I don't think it's a blessing, I might go in to panic mode and press every big red button I can find, before asking any questions.

Different tastes..

Those bits aside, your list of "more negative entities", I would label "often misunderstood entities".
Sometimes "people" just trying to get attention, and sometimes their attempts manifest in some not very pleasant ways.
There was one time one person in my close circle at the time began having nightly bad dreams, and in general feeling not very well. While I avoid and refuse to go in to other people's "personal space" even if asked, for various reasons, that time my friend asked me enough times to get me finally say "ok I'll try", I didn't expect to get anything, I didn't think there was anything, I already had my diagnosis that's something minor and surely not even metaphysical, but I felt obliged to at least try, even if just so I could say the next day I tried and found nothing, which might help my friend to relax and stop being paranoid.
But to my surprise, on very first try, when I "entered" I actually found someone. I come in and see this girl sitting on a couch, with her arms and legs crossed. Face clearly not human, but dressed like some rebellious teen from 90s. And she was completely and absolutely focused on me, and not single muscle twitching, not a single word from her, just this weird field, or beam of something radiating from her, some "field of extreme annoyance" or something. And I just had this feeling, all she wants is just some attention. So the next day, we gave her "platform to speak", in a way, my small group collectively focused on her, and the moment all our antennas turned to her, she just dumped her story on us and left, and we never heard from her again. And that friend of mine instantly went back to normal, on every aspect.

I haven't done anything, except record some story, which had not much meaning or purpose for us, but seems like it was important for someone it to be heard, seen, recorded. So it seems there are times, by this and some similar stories, when others can annoy us a little in all kinds of ways in an attempt to get our attentions, for whatever reason.
And to the same "misunderstandings" list I put most of vamps (or entities of that and similar nature), while they can cause harm of some sort, unintentionally, they usually are very reasonable. I've had entities with the most (can't find the right and polite terms) "aesthetically unusual appearances"(?) sitting down with me with a cup of tea, taking time and effort to explain to me their intentions, their purpose and everything else, in the most respectful and intelligent ways, even more so than I could ever hope to get from any human being I know. And kindly asking me if I could possibly help them get where they need to be.

Most "people" seem to be quire reasonable and kind out there. Even if very different, in their behaviour, appearances, morals and the way they see them selves, others, and the world.
But then there are other kinds of "people". What I would consider a bit more on the "negative side".
Like entities, which were "born" or "engineered" for sole purpose to torment, to wreck havoc, who's existence for that sole purpose. Chimeras made of gods knows what. Some of those can actually kill, not directly, but are programmed to find the way to remove "their victim" of the surface of this and they are relentless like machines. While some of those no larger than racoon (not necessarily literally), others can have really complex personalities, with deep memories of this that never really happened, but simply a story was written deep in to them by those that brought them in to existence.
There are entities that simply can't be reasoned with, they are just like some giant rolling blob hunger, constantly probing every gap with their army of tentacles, seeking for victims to latch on and suck the life out of them, or at least as much as they can, from as many as they can. Some of those have names, some of those can be invited by simply mentioning their name.
From my experience, while most can be reasoned with and understood, and there usually is some common ground to be found. There still are much "darker" (subjectively) layers of our reality, infested with all kinds of unpleasant things.
