The Fetish in Diablo II: Resurrected
Fetish are a type of monster encountered in Diablo II.
In-game[]
Fetish are weak individually, but pose degree of danger when in numbers. Like the Fallen, Fetish are easily dispatched mostly with one or two blows. However, they provide an unbelievably great nuisance as they are extremely fast on foot and attack in large numbers. Due to this reason, cold magic or area-of-effect magic are advised against them.
In Act I, players can encounter only the melee variation of the Fetish known as the Rat Man, the lowest variant of the Fetish, in the first level of the Catacombs of the Rogue Monastery. Other variations are encountered in Act III and known as Flayer, Soul Killer and Stygian Doll. There is a special random Unique Rat Man spawning in the Blade of Old Religion quest.

- Fetishes can be found in:

- Swampy Pit 1-3 (minion-only).
- Flayers can be found in:
- Flayer Jungle,

- Flayer Dungeon 1-3.
