Useful Info

Hell sentinels are massive demonic constructs, immune to all elemental damage except for holy and boasting very high AC. On top of that, they are covered in spines that deal 19d4 physical damage (subject to EV and AC) to you each time you attack. Although they lack the ability to torment you, they can still deal heavy damage in melee or at range. They can be found in Pandemonium and the Hells, particularly the Iron City of Dis.

Slot6 none

Tips & Tricks

  • Fast characters can avoid their passive counter-attack by kiting them with ranged attacks. That being said, the constant stream of hellfire is probably worse.
  • They only have 3 EV. Bolt of Inaccuracy is very effective against them.
  • Unlike with fiends, merely being within LOS of one of these is not an extreme emergency. All of their attacks require a clear line of fire, they are unable to inflict torment, and they are normal speed. Simply walking away from one is often the best option.

History

Hell sentinels were added in 0.11, replacing pit fiends as the iron-themed tier-1 demon.
