Zakarum Zealot
The Zakarum Zealot is a monster encountered in Act III of Diablo II.
Lore[]
The Zealots are directed by their Priests and will bring their righteous wrath down upon any who they believe to be tainted by the touch of the Three.
Religious fanatics in service of Zakarum, the Zealots existed to bring down the unfaithful.[1] Directed by Zakarum Priests, the Zealots brought down their wrath upon any who they believed to be tainted by the touch of the Prime Evils.[2]
Masters of the polearm, they attacked without question or quarter; these attacks were coordinated, or unimaginative. They often worked together to bring down larger or stronger foes, surrounding the opponent in order to flank them.[1]
In-game[]
Unused base color palette
Zakarum Zealots move fast and attack with large scythes or axes, often delivering sweeping blows. They are deadly in combination with their priests, who can heal them. They also have a common habit of running away when their health hits critical levels.
After the Compelling Orb is shattered , all Zakarum Zealots are freed of the evil trance, and start running away from the player.
Development[]
Zakarum Zealots have their look before corruption in the game files as their unused base color palette shows them with their true skin color.
