Diablo 3 narrates the story of the Nephalem, a warrior on a never-ending fight against the forces of the Burning Hell. While the demonic hordes coming from hell will present different shapes and forms, some of them are significantly stronger leaders in this hellish army, demanding a harder effort if you want to defeat them in battle. Today we will talk about the boss fight involving Vidian, Lord of Envy.
Who is Vidian in Diablo 3?
The Lord of Envy, Vidian is a demon who resides in the Temple of the Firstborn with his followers of the Blood Cult. Once one of Azmodan's Sin Lieutenants, he hated to obey his former master, and once the new Blood Cult formed within the Temple he became the leader, as they twisted the will of mortals and creatures alike. Posing as a human named Daivin, Vidian hides his own demonic nature from the Nephalem.
