Suicide Minion
Suicide Minions are Baal's soldiers transformed into living bombs that rush a target and detonate in a chilling blast. The newest monsters created by Baal to serve in his army of Destruction, they are stealthy, quick-footed, and unusually tough for their size. Bony knobs protrude from their thick hides, giving them added protection against melee weapons. Suicide Minion are much like Warcraft's Goblin Sappers. They attempt to Charge you and blow up in your face doing significant damage, including a cold-chilling-damage explosion. Characters with low amounts of Life are often killed in one hit of a Suicide Minion. It is somewhat straightforward to fool Suicide Minion by running around in circles until they blow up (like a Jet running from a heat seeking missile), or by "training" or leading the monster to another target including your Hireling or another player in your party (*wink*). Amazons can use Decoys, other classes with Minions can lead Suicide Minion into their Minions. Suicide Minion deal no damage to Hirelings or Minions so you can exploit this to your advantage. You don't get experience if they blow up. They do not drop loot, not even from barbarian's Find Item.

- Keep moving or redirect their charge into a decoy, summoned minion, or hireling; their explosion does not damage those allies.
- Suicide Minions drop no loot, and one that self-detonates grants no experience.
