Will-o'-wisp family
Willowisp
Willowisps are nearly invisible spirits born from jungle vapors that hunt the energy of living creatures. The Willowisp belongs to the group of most feared and reviled foes in Diablo 2, second in notoriety only to the Bone Fetish. Between their enormous Lightning damage, piercing projectiles, mana draining attacks, rapid and erratic movements, and near invisibility while in motion, groups of these Undead can quickly overwhelm an unwary adventurer.

D2Emu Tips
- Stack Lightning Resistance and watch for faint movement before their lightning attack reveals them.
- Area attacks can hit them while hidden, and their attacks can drain mana.
- Wraiths, Willowisps, and Finger Mages have higher rune-drop odds than most normal monsters.
- These already dangerous monsters are immune to freezing and Chill effects in Hell difficulty, making them even harder to pin down and engage.
- Wisp Projector provides 10–20 flat Lightning Absorb against Willowisps.
- A dual-Dragon/Hand of Justice Paladin can kill low-player-count Willowisps quickly with Holy Fire while stacking very high maximum Lightning Resistance.
- Guardian Angel with Thundergod's Vigor provides strong maximum Lightning Resistance and absorption against Willowisps.
- Willowisps have low life despite their extreme burst damage; attack decisively once they reveal themselves.
