Diablo Clone
- Description: The Diablo Clone fight is a unique event added in Kyanite #11. It is meant to be a very difficult challenge for endgame players. If you can beat him you will be rewarded with the Annihilus unique small charm.
- Requirements: To enter Diablo Clone's realm you can use the Horadric Cube. (NOTE: once entered, you can't leave and return).
- Cube Recipe: To enter Diablo Clone's realm you must collect the organs: brain and eye from Ubers Izual, Duriel and Lilith(Diablo's horn), a Soulstone that drops from Diablo in Uber Tristram and a Key of Chaos that drops in maps. Transmute to enter "The Infernal Trial".
- Fight Mechanics:
- There are two phases of the fight with the Diablo Clone. He spawns from a hooded man ("The Dark Wanderer") standing in the middle of the map. When ready, move towards him to start the fight.
- In the first phase, Diablo Clone is damage and curse immune and spawns a large number of minions to fight you called "Reanimated Warriors" and "Undead Commanders".
- Reanimated Warriors are monster type 'Reanimated Horde' but with extra physical damage and increased % crushing blow.
- Their charge attack has been removed.
- They are immune to curses and are highly resistant to all types of damage.
"Undead Commanders" have the Prime Evil tag meaning the game gives them mechanics that a Prime Evil has. They are ranged undead creatures that have high resistances, Holy Freeze aura, and attack with a magic damage Guided Arrow.
- During phase 1, Diablo is still able to attack and damage you. You can't damage him until you defeat his Undead Commanders. Diablo has a special red aura that reduces all the player's, minion's, and mercenary's maximum resistances by 5%.
- Undead Commanders shoot arrows doing 295-316 damage, of which 60% is converted to magic damage and 40% to physical. They can be blocked.
- The physical damage of the arrow can be reduced by Damage Reduced by x (often referred to as Physical Damage Reduction or PDR. Examples of items with this affix are: Gladiator's Bane + Gerke's Sanctuary. Alternatively you can put Perfect Skulls in shields). A more effective affix is: Damage Reduced by % (often referred to as DR%. Examples of items with this affix are: Shaftstop + Stormshield)
- The magic damage of the arrow can be absorbed by Magic Absorb (Oath, Crescent Moon, Spirit runewords), Magic Damage Reduced by x (Skin of the Vipermagi, String of Ears, Vampire Gaze, Mal rune etc.) and Magic Resist % (Crafted Safety Shield).
- You must defeat all five Undead Commanders to progress into phase 2 of the Diablo Clone fight, where Diablo loses his immunities and becomes vulnerable to damage.
- Increased hp and a part of his ‘Fire/Cold/Lightning Resistances’ have been replaced by ‘Fire/Cold/Lightning Absorb +%’.
- Occasionally casts Decrepify (-50% Physical Resistance, -50% Physical damage and reduced Run/Walk Speed).
Damage types found in the fight:
- Reanimated Horde: physical
- Undead Commanders: physical+magic
- Diablo Clone: fire (armageddon) and magic (hose)
Uber Mephisto
- Drain effectiveness changed from 0% to 10% (it is possible to leech now from Mephisto without using the Life Tap curse)

- Uses Frozen Armor instead of Chilling Armor
Uber Diablo
Lightning Hose:
- now hits in melee range

Uber Izual
- Has ascended and earned the modifier ‘Prime Evil’. This makes him like act bosses and ubers who have special resistances and damage reductions
Super Uniques
- Act 3 Council Members no longer spawn with Fire Enchanted (fixes bug in Vanilla D2 that causes these monsters to deal insane damage in Nightmare)
- The Ancients will always spawn with fixed modifiers: Korlic has increased physical damage, Talic is extra fast and Madawc has multiple projectiles. Talic now uses a lower level Whirlwind.
