Diablo 2 Workout (Part 2: Suitable Workout Buddies, Act 2)




By Binkari





Workout Buddies: Act 2
--------
So, you got past Act 1, eh? I guarantee that you won't make it past these denizens of the desert! Mwaha!

Sand Leaper/Cave Leaper/Tomb Lurker: These guys were obviously working on those hurdles. Or maybe they're just pole vaulters...without the poles. They love to get airborne, but poor things don't have wings and gravity is so cruel to them. These little guys make cute sounds when you smack them, too!

Dung Solider/Death Beatle/Scarab/Steel Scarab/Bone Scarab: Oh yes, very annoying workout buddies indeed. Because of their exposed surfaces, they work up a lot of static electricity. Should they run into something (or should a chair accidentally come hurtling towards them), they release a good round of shocks. They're quick on their feet too, which is probably why they work up so much static. They also have an alternate use as a car battery! Use anti-static cling, boys!

Sand Maggot/Rock Worm: Ah yes, the natives of Lut Ghoelin used to eat these little critters you know. But they got tired of being picked on and started on the D2 workout, now look! They're as buff as ever. Sure, they may regurgitate on you if they move around too much, but who can blame them?! They're constantly laying eggs and that can be rough on anyone's abdomen.

Carrion Bird/Undead Scavenger/Hell Buzzard: You traditional Thanksgiving turkeys, with teeth! Vain little birds these are. Constantly wanting to keep their claws sharp and scratching on the walls, ground, or the local hero. They enjoy taking to the air, so trying to get them down will involve patience to get them down. However, fair is fair and they can't scratch you from up there. They can however, drop a little...uh...feces on you.

Itches/Black Locusts: Insane little bugs that enjoy pestering you on the run. They vant to suck your blood!!!

Huntress/Sabre Cat/Night Tiger/Hell Cat: Smarter group of the Act 2 level. These furry ladies hold a special place in my heart. If they didn't have such a belligerent attitude that it. These women work out A LOT and can dish out some pretty damaging wrestling moves if you tick them off.

Dried Corpse/Decayed/Embalmed: A bit faster, and a bit smellier than the standard zombie. Just like any of the living dead (y'know, the ones that refuse to stay down even after they supposedly died?), blunt objects of the mace class work well. Which is why you probably shouldn't play baseball with them, or golf.

Hollow One/Guardian/Unraveler/Horadrim Ancient: Big daddies of the mummy group. They can help their downed members up again and again. Expand your horizons and avoid working out with the same ones just like the Fallen ones. These big ones have one problem: They never brush their teeth! Can we say bad breath?

Sand Raider/Marauder/Invader/Infidel/Assailant: Working out with 4 arms must be confusing! These guys turn red if they think you're better than them. They are quite hostile and will attack if you appear to be...fitter.

Desert Wing/Fiend/Gloom Bat: Honestly, some lockers in the gym get really old. That's where these little guys live. No, we prefer not to bother them, they're not very threatening. Should they try to attack you whilst your working, a good hearty smack should be enough to make them fizzle.

Tomb Viper/Claw Viper/Salamander/Pit Viper/Serpent Magus: So they aren't the best at running, but you won't be if you let them smack you with a cold. Toss them some nail clippers while you're at it. It's not safe to do push-ups with long nails!

Blunderbore/Gorebelly: Big body, tiny head. Slow to catch on, so don't expect them to learn quickly.

Lightning Spire: Lamp lights that have taken a wrong turn, apparently.

Fire Towers: Excellent guardian structures...if they didn't attack the clients, that is.


Duriel: A muscley maggot that always has a smile on his face. You may have gotten rid of Andariel, but this guy is no pushover. BRING IT ON!!
