Diablo 2 Acts

Blood Moor

Blood Moor is the first zone in Diablo II outside of town. It's infested by Quills, Fallens and Zombies. It is also the scene for the first quest in the game - The Den of Evil. The Den of Evil is a cave/dungeon within the zone. Enemies are weak and slow and the terrain is mostly wilderness.

Interesting facts:

• The zone in Normal is devoided of monsters and really barren but in Hell is a crowded place with up to 5 Unique/Champion spawns
• The zone is known to have a chance to spawn a super chest even on Normal difficulty. It will either spawn a House with a super chest or a Barn with a Cow inside of it
• The main idea is to navigate well within the zone. The best way is to follow the path which will lead to the Den of Evil cave and then to Cold Plains
• The zone has unusually high number of shrine spawns. In Hell the zone always spawns with 4. High level farmers always scour Blood Moor for Experience shrine while the rest of the group clears the way for Baal Runs
• Fallens appear without a Shaman in this zone

Images

The map is predominantely wilderness with some trees, stones and holes. There sometimes be a river to cross with a bridge. There is a distinct a well-trodden path which players can follow to reach the Den of Evil and Cold Plains even without knowing the map.

Map variation

The map is random in nature but pointers can be made such as from which side of the Rogue Encampment you are exiting. For example, if you are exiting the Rogue Encampment from the south you would generally go left or right and not straight.

NPC

Flavie

Flavie stands on the exit of Blood Moor towards Cold Plains. She is an elite Rogue Scout of the Sisterhood of the Sightless Eye. Before completion of the Den of Evil quest, she advises the player to stay in the Blood Moor. After completion of the quest, she warns them about the dangers ahead. She will assist with killing mobs although she stays static at her position. Her damage helps on Normal but is negligible on Hell.

She will have the following dialogue with you:

Before the hero has taken the Den of Evil quest:

Turn back! I can tell that you need more experience to fight safely in the next wilderness.

While the hero is on the Den of Evil quest but not compelted it:

Halt! You should complete Akara's quest before venturing further. Search for the Den in the wilderness closer to camp.

After Den of Evil quest is completed:

Beware! The evil is strong ahead.

Beware! Beyond lies mortal danger for the likes of you!

Take care! The Corrupted Rogues in the wilderness ahead are not to be trifled with.
