Useful Info

An iron devil is a tier-3 demon with decent AC and multiple resistances. It's as slow as a naga and it can't swim, so escaping isn't difficult, but you probably won't even need to because they don't do significantly more damage than an ogre. They normally appear in the Abyss, Pandemonium, and the Hells (especially the Iron City of Dis), but they also appear in vaults 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.
