Act Four: Diablo
Act Five: Baal

Diablo is a Demon, a SuperUnique, and an Act Boss.

Diablo is the act boss of act four, and must defeated to complete the Terror's End quest. This quest ends the game in Diablo II, and enables access to Act Five in Diablo II: Lord of Destruction. Diablo is found in the Chaos Sanctuary. He appears in the center of the large pentagram after the five seals have been opened and the three seal bosses have been killed or moved out of the Chaos Sanctuary.

Diablo is the Lord of Terror, and the youngest of the three prime evil brothers. The pursuit of him and long battle to destroy his soul stone figures prominently in the game story and the lore in the game manuals for Diablo and Diablo II.

Like many of the monsters in Diablo II, Diablo was a lot harder in earlier versions of the game. Prior to v1.08, his Firestorm (ground fire) attack could insta-kill virtually any character who took it point blank, since there were so many overlapping pixels of flame at melee range. Maximum fire resistance was essential, along with fire absorption, and digging in for a long toe-to-toe slugfest with Diablo was almost sure suicide. Hit and run tactics had to be employed, in those days.

v1.08 made Diablo much less dangerous, and v1.10 nerfed him further. Diablo's Firestorm is much reduced in damage, and his pink lightning hose no longer touches characters battling him at melee range, though it can still be quite dangerous to ranged attackers.

Various forms of Diablo abound in D2X. You may also encounter Uber Diablo, or Pandemonium Diablo, on the Special Quests added in in v1.10 and v1.11.

Diablo deals 7x damage to player minions, making it hard to keep mercs or summons alive.

Stats are displayed by difficult level: Normal / Nightmare / Hell.

Offense

Diablo's stats are all preset. He does not get any random Monster Modifiers.

Diablo is vulnerable when charging, since he will run very slowly if slowed by cold attacks, the Holy Freeze aura, the Decrepify curse, etc. Ranged attackers can land many, many shots while Diablo slow motion bounds towards the location they were standing in when he began the charge.

Name	Melee Attack 1	Attack Rating	Melee Attack 2	Attack Rating 2	Charge

Magical Attacks

Diablo uses a variety of spells to supplement his melee strikes. Several of these hit for physical + elemental damage, making physical resistance useful for characters who wish to survive the battle.

Name	Pink Lightning	Cold Hand	Fire Nova	Firestorm	Firewall
Diablo	Physical+Lightning: 54-72 + 126-216/sec 126-144 + 234-324/sec 216-234 + 378-468/sec	Magic damage: 42-61 (8s chill) 69-97 (8s chill) 105-145 (8s chill)	Fire dmg: 52-82 76-106 108-138	Physical+Fire: 8-17 + 24-38 (3-9 hits) 15-24 + 40-54 (6-18 hits) 24-32 + 62-76 (10-30 hits)	Fire dmg: 18-19/sec 29-30/sec 43-44/sec

Defenses

Like the other act bosses, Diablo does not regenerates hit points.

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.

Name	Defense	Blocking	Regen Rate	Drain Effectiveness	Chill Effectiveness
Diablo	208 / 1176 / 2534	20% / 40% / 50%	--	100 / 0 / 0	25 / 15 / 10

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.

Name	Physical	Fire	Cold	Lightning	Poison	Magic
Diablo	0% / 0% / 45%	33% / 50% / 50%	33% / 50% / 50%	33% / 50% / 50%	50% / 50% / 50%	0% / 0% / 0%

Locations

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.)

Name	Location
Diablo	Act 4: Chaos Sanctuary. Diablo appears in the center of the pentagram once all five seals have been opened and the 3 seal bosses are dead or removed from the Chaos Sanctuary.
