Baal's Minion

Baal's Minions are demonic servants of Baal.

In-game[]

Diablo II[]

"The newest monsters created by Baal to serve in his army of destruction, they are stealthy, quick-footed, and unusually tough for their size. Bony knobs protrude from their thick hides, giving them added protection against melee weapons."

- Monster summary(src)

The Minions appear in Act V of Diablo II. They carry long scimitars, wicked axes or mace-like weapons almost as tall as themselves and swing it in a gigantic downthrust that tears apart their victims. Sometimes they spawn with a shield, but even if they do not spawn with one, they can block incoming melee attacks with their bare hands if need be.

They can be transformed in Suicide Minions by the whips of Overseers.

Greater Ice Spawn (Resurrected)

Trivia[]

WikiLogoSmall
This section contains facts and trivia relevant to this article.
  • According to The Arreat Summit, the minions were created explicitly for the Army of Destruction. However, this is contradicted by their appearance in Diablo Immortal, hundreds of years before the events of Lord of Destruction.
  • Amusingly enough, the minions' penis is visible in both concept art and the in-game sprites. This was unfortunately removed in Diablo 2: Resurrected.

development[]

  • Slayers use a color palette of number 2 while the Ice Boars use number 1, furthermore in the Expansion Beta v1.41 files they used these palettes in opposite order - Slayer (1) and Ice Boar (2). It seems that Developers decided to swap the color palettes of Slayers and Ice Boars for the retail release, though their exploding variants still have the original palette order as an oversight.
