Thorned Hulks are Animals.

These massive tree-like brawlers use their huge, club-like fists to pummel soft targets into bloody pulps. They are slow of foot and attack, until successful hits engage their Frenzy attack, greatly increasing their movement speed and attack rate. It's best to engage them one or two at a time; letting a whole mob charge up to Frenzy speed at the same time is very dangerous.

The "Spikefist" is a type of Thorned Hulk listed in the game files and on Blizzard's website, but they are not found in the game as of v1.11.

  • All values are listed by difficulty level: Normal / Nightmare / Hell.


Statistics

  • The TC/Rune drops listed are the highest Treasure Class/Rune Group a normal monster of that type can drop.
    • TC Champions and Bosses can sometimes drop from the next higher group.
    • The max TC/Rune possible may depend on which level a monster spawns in, and can be lower than the maximum. See the item calculators to ascertain precisely what a monster from a given area can drop.

Resistances
