Useful Info

Shadow demons are demonic summoners which haunt demonic places, summoning waves of dangerous foes at you as soon as they spot you. They're faster than normal, but thankfully aren't very durable by tier-2 standards. They can be found in the Abyss, Pandemonium, and the Hells (particularly in Tartarus).

Spells

Tips & Tricks

  • Without Mass Abjuration, these guys can theoretically put together truly horrific piles of demons to assault you. Fortunately they spend most of their turns trying to move into melee range with you. Make them a high priority to keep them from calling for reinforcements.

History

Prior to 0.10, shadow demons had permanent invisibility and normal speed, but no spells.
