Recently, Diablo 4 players found a very weird enemy on the preview page of the new lore book, Book of Lorath. Players have speculated that it may have some connection to Diablo 2’s most iconic boss. This new monster may also be another formidable enemy that players will face in Diablo 4.
Book of Lorath is actually a new lore codex. Among them, the world of Sanctuary, which will be released together with Diablo 4 on June 6 this year, is described in detail. Lorath Nahr actually narrated this Book of Lorath.
I believe that many players have encountered this character in the early Diablo 4 beta, and it also left a deep impression on me. Due to the gradual decline of Horadrim scholars, and Lorath Nahr as one of them, Book of Lorath also introduces the legend of Diablo’s universe from the perspective of Lorath Nahr.
And players discovered a new monster, Maggot Queen, on a preview page displayed in Book of Lorath’s Amazon listing. Legend has it that this terrible monster will secrete a liquid that can melt all substances, which are very lethal. The liquid is also said to be used to make potions that can cure sorrow.
This monster usually haunts swamps by undead and snakemen. There is a good chance that all players will meet Maggot Queen in places like Hawezar. And Hawezar is also one of the five playable areas initially announced in Diablo 4 this time.
Speaking of Maggot Queen, many players will think of Lord of Pain, Duriel. This Lesser Evil is also the ultimate boss that players find in Diablo 2’s Act 2, also known as Maggot King.
A lot of keen players have discovered that Duriel will reappear in Diablo 4 when Diablo 4 beta and trailers were first released. But considering the similarities in their character design and naming, Maggot Queen is probably not the last boss that players will encounter. It might even just be one of the mini-bosses a player is fighting against Duriel’s minions.
Duriel isn’t the only returning Diablo 2 character that players will find in Diablo 4. Some players have discovered that in Rogue’s revealing trailer, Maiden of Anguish - Andariel, who appeared in Diablo 2’s Act 1, also appear in it, although the time is very short. Although players don’t know how they will appear in Diablo 4, it is still possible that they will cooperate with Lilith.
Some players speculate whether Prime Evils will return in Diablo 4, and Book of Lorath also has a detailed introduction to Demonic relics made from their corpses. At the same time, some players are still guessing that the most annoying Bloodied Wolf in Diablo 4 is probably Mephisto or Diablo. But what the truth is remains to be seen.
With the countdown to Diablo 4’s release, players have less than two months to guess what’s in store for Sanctuary in this new patch. Although players can only experience Act 1 in Diablo 4 beta, how the battle between Lilith and Inarius will still attract everyone’s attention.
Of course, while waiting for the arrival of Diablo 4, players still must not forget to continue exploring and get more Diablo 4 Gold to upgrade their own construction, so that they can have a better start after they officially released the game. All in all, players have to continue to wait patiently, hoping that players can get a satisfactory result.
