Dark Stalker

Dark Stalkers are Demons. They're a species of Corrupt Rogues.

The corruption of the Sisterhood is perhaps the worst atrocity that the surviving Rogues endure. The sight of their own sisters, marching against them in service of their enemy, drives the Sisterhood into deep despair. The tainted Sisters are seldom caught alone, preferring to attack in groups. Many of the corrupted ones have forgotten their skills with ranged weapons, or are so driven by Hell’s rage, that they blindly melee with whatever weapon is at hand.

Dark Stalkers are humanoid females who generally spawn in packs, armed with sabers and bucklers. They possess excellent footspeed, but are not especially skilled with their weapons, nor do they hit very quickly. More deadly Dark Stalkers include archers and spearwomen.

The weakest Dark Stalkers in Hell difficulty are found on the Tamoe Highland, while the strongest (regular) are found on both levels of The Pit.

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

Statistics

Dark Stalkers have a walking and a running speed. They are one of the few monsters in the game with this variety of movement rate.

• 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.
