Act One, Wilderness. The Amazon here in a hell of a scene from a Fallen encampment. Red and blue fallen galore, and if you look closely, we have the first ever sight of some Goatmen in Diablo II. Strawberry-flavored Goatmen, from the look of them. Fire Clan, perhaps? Goatmen were said to wield large, two-handed weapons, and you can see the two here to the lower middle, right over the health potions, have some sort of small halberd or large axe. Hard to tell about the other one, near the two blue Fallen. The Amazon is in quite a spot here, she'll need more than Fire Arrow to hold off this mob. Notice the Fallen Shaman to the left, he's got some sort of spell-casting effect swirling about his standard. It could be a Firebolt attack, like the Blue one just launched, or possibly it's a resurrect, for one of the dead warriors, possibly the one that is still falling over backwards here. Shamans have been seen to resurrect dead Fallen Warriors almost before they hit the ground. Lastly, note the mystery Firebolt to the lower right, visible behind the mana bulb. What fired it? Where is it going? Unknown. The Amazon has fire arrow, but the graphic is wrong, and the tail is pointing in the wrong direction to be from her anyway. It is closed to lined up with the Blue Shaman, maybe the Amazon has just moved back, and it missed her a moment ago? -- 3D-enhanced shot, 10/99
