===Beetleburst===

===Coldworm the Burrower===

'''Type:''' Sand Maggot Queen<br>

'''Special Attributes:''' Cold Enchanted, Magic Resistant<br>

'''Found in: '''Maggot's Lair Level 3<br>

'''Comments:''' Coldworm is a giant, swollen maggot with a lovely, screeching, poison-spewing death animation. She spawns new full size maggots once characters approach close enough to activate her, and during long battles her reproductive prowess can grow quite wearisome.  She is motionless and has no attacks of any kind, other than the cold and poison she spews upon death. It can be amusing to see her with random modifiers like Extra Fast and Extra Strong when she neither moves nor attacks, but her modifiers are shared with her minions, and that can make a difference in the battle.

===Dark Elder===

'''Type:''' Plague Bearer, Undead<br>

'''Special Attributes: '''Extra Fast, Magic Resistant<br>

'''Found in: '''Lost City<br>

'''Comments:''' Dark Elder is fast... for a zombie. He's also very often physical immune on hell, and can be quite difficult to kill if he spawns with Stone Skin and some other elemental enchantments, giving him multiple immunities.

===Fangskin===

'''Type:''' Salamander<br>

'''Special Attributes: '''Lightning Enchanted, Extra Fast<br>

'''Found in: '''Claw Viper Temple Level 2<br>

'''Quest:''' Fangskin is not necessary to kill to complete the [[Quests_Act_Two#Quest_Three:_The_Tainted_Sun|Tainted Sun quest]], but he's found in the room with the golden chest from which you must recover the Viper Amulet, so killing him while you're there is never a bad idea.<br>

'''Comments:''' Fangskin is another monster who was made much easier in v1.09. Prior to that patch he and his minions were very dangerous in the confined area, thanks to their solid damage and swarming, stun-locking, speedy attacks. Their damage and ability to stun lock were turned well down in v1.09 though, greatly reducing the danger.

===Fire Eye===

'''Type:''' Invader<br>

'''Special Attributes: '''Fire Enchanted, Extra Fast<br>

'''Found in: '''Palace Cellar Level 3<br>

'''Comments:''' Fire Eye and his minions can be dangerous with their fast speed and rapid attack, so do not let them swarm your character. He usually spawns near the portal to the Arcane Sanctuary, often right in the room with it, but not always.

===The Summoner===

'''Found in: '''Arcane Sanctuary<br>

'''Quest:''' The Summoner must be killed to complete [[Quests_Act_Two#Quest_Five:_The_Summoner|his eponymous quest]], and to advance to the Canyon of the Magi, the last waypoint in Act Two. <br>

'''Comments:''' The Summoner packs a number of dangerous spells, especially his Firewall, which he can cast from well off the visible screen. The flames will absolutely cook new characters who are stuck fighting monsters on the narrow walkways of the Arcane Sanctuary. The Summoner is a true mage, deadly from a distance, but cursed with very low hit points, resistances, and defense, which makes him an easy kill, once the distance is closed.

On Hell difficulty, the Summoner will sometimes drop the Key of Hate, an artifact required for the [[Pandemonium Event]]. The key has no other purpose, and can not be used by single player characters.

===Ancient Kaa the Soulless===

'''Type:''' Unraveler, Undead<br>

'''Special Attributes: '''Magic Resistant, Extra Strong, Lightning Enchanted<br>

'''Found in: '''Tal Rasha's Tomb (or one of the False Tombs)<br>

'''Comments:''' Ancient Kaa is one of the very few monsters in the game with 3 pre-set modifiers, which makes him one of the very few capable of having five random modifiers in Hell difficulty. This makes for an interesting name hover, but isn't necessarily all that deadly, especially after v1.10 made MSLE bosses so much less dangerous. Dealing with Kaa and his pack in a dungeon crowded with skeletons, zombies, or specters can be a challenge, as quickly and frequently as they can resurrect their fallen undead servants.

===Duriel===

'''Type:''' Act Boss<br>

'''Special Attributes: '''Resistant to Cold/Fire/Lightning/Poison<br>

'''Found in: '''Duriel's Lair<br>

'''Quest:''' Duriel must be killed to complete [[Quests_Act_Two#Quest_Six:_The_Seven_Tombs|the Seven Tombs quest]], and to move on to Act Three. <br>

'''Comments:''' Duriel is the act boss of act two, and is a formidable, tank-like foe. He boasts a fast, painful charging attack, a rapid-strike jab, and a stunning Smite. He was terrifying prior to v1.09, but in that patch his damage was lowered considerably, and he lost his "kill you before the level finishes loading" ability. Duriel insists that he is big-boned. Not fat.
