"The corruption of the Sisterhood has also turned many who were skilled in the use of spears and javelins to the cause of evil. These warriors now use their talents to eviscerate those who seek to stop the corruption that is slowly spreading across Khanduras. Using a mix of piercingweapons, these Corrupt Rogues can be specially dangerous when they back their prey into a corner and use the length of their weapons to gain a tactical advantage."
Corrupt Rogue Spearwomen are monsters found in Diablo II. These demonic warriors were once serving under the Sisterhood of the Sightless Eye, before they were corrupted and turned into demon warriors by demon queen Andariel. They are well organized, as they attack in groups, along with Corrupt Rogue Archers and Corrupt Rogues. These warriors are often found roaming from the Rogue Monastery to the Cold Plains. Instead of wielding bows or other melee weaponry, these once humans, now demons, choose to jab their opponents with spears. They possess a tactical advantage, as they can attack at a longer range than with other melee weapons. One must move past their deadly spears in order to land a hit on these corrupted Rogues.
