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."

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.

Uniques[]
- Eldritch the Rectifier -- Extra Fast Enslaved found near the Waypoint in Frigid Highlands
Diablo Immortal[]
Baal's Minions appear as monsters in the "Destruction's End" dungeon and Ruins of Sescheron zone in Diablo Immortal.
Trivia[]
- 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.
