Changes

Like other Corrupt Rogues, The Countess has a walking and a running speed. The Countess' Treasure Classes are modified to greatly increase her chances of dropping runes.

Like other [[Corrupt Rogue]]s, the Countess has two melee attacks (with identical Attack Ratings). She is also credited for casting the firewalls that block the entrances to her chamber.

Like many other [[SuperUniques]], The Countess does not regenerate hit points.

* Resistances over 99% are listed as immunities and monsters will take no damage from that type of attack.

* <font color="#FF0000">Immunities</font> can be "broken" by skills that lower resistance, if the value drops below 99%. See the [[Resistances#Immunities|Resistances]] page for more details.

All SuperUniques (except for [[Uber Diablo]] are found in roughly the same location every game, on all three difficulty levels. (Except for the [[Uber Monsters]] who are only found on Hell Difficulty.)

Starting with the v1.09 patch, The Countess was given the ability to drop one or more runes almost every time she died. This ability was enhanced and modified in v1.10, and in v1.11 she is now almost certain to drop at least one rune every time (1/64 chance of none dropping), and has the capability to drop up to six, though more than 2 or 3 is a very rare sight. The runes she can drop are:

The Countess can drop the Key of Terror on Hell difficulty, a required ingredient for the [[Pandemonium Event]]. This item can not be obtained from any other monster, and can only be used on the Battle.net realms, though it will drop sometimes in Single Player as well. The odds of the Key of Terror dropping depend on how many players are in the game.

According to legend, the Countess committed a great many gruesome and heinous acts in her castle, including bathing in the blood of a hundred virgins, before being buried alive. It is likely the idea for the Countess was inspired by the true story of Elizabeth Báthory.
