Reanimated Horde are Undead.

Reanimated Horde are skeletal warriors who drag massive two-handed swords in their eternal quest for revenge. They move very slowly, but are capable of unleashing a fast, short range charge attack which was greatly increased in damage in v1.10 and is now quite a dangerous tactic. Low hit point characters should be very cautious, especially when Cursed, since it's quite possible to die from a single charge, or two in rapid succession from a pair of monsters in the same pack.

Reanimated Horde can spontaneously reanimate, some of them more than once. The self-resurrected monster is made anew, fully restored in hit points, worth normal experience and capable of dropping items again.

• All values are listed by difficulty level: Normal / Nightmare / Hell.

Statistics

Speed rates a monster's movement speed. 1 is very slow, 10 is fast, with some very fast creatures rated at 10+.

• The TC/Rune drops listed are the highest Treasure Class/Rune Group a normal monster of that type can drop.
  • Champions and Bosses can sometimes drop from the next higher TC.
  • The max TC/Rune possible depends on which level a monster spawns in, and can vary slightly from the listed values (monsters that spawn in later levels can drop higher level items). See the item calculators to ascertain precisely what a monster from a given area can drop.

Offense

Different types of Reanimated Horde can self-reanimate a different number of times. The number does not scale with the difficulty level; just by monster type.

• Reanimation can not take place once a corpse has been used by one of the various corpse skills.
• Reanimation takes place from 5-10 seconds after death, with the time only counting when a character is in the vicinity.
• Reanimated Reanimated Horde are made new by the process, and have their full hit points, are worth full experience, and can drop items just like usual.

Defenses

• Regen Rate tells what % of a monster's hit points are recovered per second. Standard is 1.2/sec.
• Blocking values are assigned to every monster in the game, but the ability is seldom enabled, so most monsters can not block (Hence the blocking % given on most Diablo II monster pages, including Blizzard's, is inaccurate.) When enabled, blocking tells what % of successful, blockable attacks will not damage the monster. Monsters need not carry a shield to block.
• Drain Effectiveness tells what % of a character's mana and life steal apply to that monster. 100 is all, 0 is none.
• Chill Effectiveness tells what % of a character's cold length applies to the monster. 100 is all, 0 is no freeze/chill at all.

Resistances

• Resistances over 99% are listed as immunities and monsters will take no damage from that type of attack.
• Immunities can be "broken" by skills that lower resistance, if the value drops below 99%. See the Resistances page for more details.

Locations

• Monster variety in Act Five on Normal difficulty is static -- the same monsters are always in the same areas. (This was true of NM/Hell also, prior to v1.10.)
• Many Expansion monsters only appear as Guest Monsters in v1.10+.
• Monsters in areas marked "Boss Only" will only appear as random bosses or champions.
• Monsters in areas marked "No Boss" will never appear as random bosses or champions.
