- Monster summary(src)
Slingers are a type of lacuni enemy in Diablo II.
In-game[]
Slingers are very much similar to Sabre Cats, except they use spears, javelins or potions to attack their foes. Some of the potion-throwing slingers throw exploding ones that deal Fire damage while others use ones that deal Poison damage. They also quickly flee when they are attacked. Because Slingers travel in packs along with Sabre cats, they pose a serious threat all together.
Slingers are particularly dangerous when they assist other melee monsters. While players are busy fighting off other monsters these Slingers can rain all sorts of ranged weaponry upon the characters.
Stats[]
Slingers (first variety) can be found in the Rocky Waste.
They throw javelins that have a 5/15% chance to deal Cold damage on Nightmare and Hell. On Hell difficulty, Slingers are immune to Cold.
