Useful Info

Cacodemons are extremely dangerous tier-2 demons. They wield a wide variety of debilitating ranged attacks, occasionally mutate the player, and have a powerful, irresistible energy attack. They are found in the Abyss, the Hells, and Pandemonium (particularly in Mnoleg's domain), and can be summoned by certain monsters through the Summon Greater Demon spell.

Tips & Tricks

  • A source of mutation resistance and high magic resistance will protect you from most (but not all) of their attacks; kill them quick to avoid an unlucky Malmutate getting through to you.
