{{Flavour|A hideous humanoid figure with metal skin. While it lacks magical attacks and is slow of foot, it makes up for these failings with brute strength.}}

==Useful Info==
An '''iron devil''' is a [[tier-4 demon]] with decent [[AC]] and multiple resistances. It's as slow as a naga and it can't swim, so escaping isn't difficult. If you do choose to face them head on, they may be a threat to low-level characters, as they tend to wield heavy weapons. They normally appear in [[the Abyss]], [[Pandemonium]], and the [[Hell]]s (especially [[the Iron City of Dis]]), but can also appear in [[vault]]s in the early [[Dungeon]] (safely locked away, of course).

==Tips & Tricks==
If you're in Hell, you can pretty much ignore these. If you worship [[the Shining One]] or [[Makhleb]], kill them for the healing. If you do find one in the early dungeon due to a vault, you're unlikely to be able to kill it due to its [[AC]] and resistances, so just walk away.

==History==
In [[0.16]], iron devils were replaced with [[rust devil]]s.

Prior to [[0.15]], iron devils did not come armed, and were significantly less threatening.
