Ads[]
Wish I had the sanity to quickly and succinctly fix the formatting the ads push away. The cure of course should also look good on it's own. Didn't feel right making a bulleted list. EldrickTobin 05:58, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
Lucion[]
Lucion has no pictures, I will add this 
.
- What is it a picture of? If it is a form Lucion took, it will work.

- Is a speculation that I found Tricell
- Oh, I see it is Morlu Caster... I have strong doubts that it is supposed to be depicting Lucion, but since he doesn't have a picture and there is at least some basis to the speculation in that Lucion controlled the Morlu, I suppose you could use it. However, it will need to be noted that the image is only speculation.
◄► Tephra ◄► 18:48, May 24, 2012 (UTC) - Nevermind, looks like you found one...

- Well I put a image from book of cain see Tricell
Aspects of the Prime Evil[]
Do each of the Greater Evil embody an aspect of Tathamet? Via Diablo The Lord of Terror?--CNBA3 (talk) 17:14, August 8, 2013 (UTC)
Inclusion[]
Concerning the "Other Evils" section, I've been thinking...I think it's a good idea actually (at least in terms of the category itself), but I think there needs to be some criteria for what warrants inclusion, as in, there's no reason to include every named demon, who are usually just there to be killed in the games. As such, I'm thinking of the following:
- The creature actually has to be of Hell (so no Izual—he's not in a position of power, and he's not even a demon)
- The Evil should have a title (as in, X, Y of Z, along the lines of Diablo (X), Lord (Y) of Terror (Z))
- The Evil should ideally have some link to one of the Great Evils (e.g. Azmodan's sin lieutenants, or Lilith and Lucion being the children of Mephisto).
- Possibly an image of some kind, but that may not be needed, Zagraal and Kabraxis are relatively major, even if they're without official images.
Just some thoughts. I'll leave the article as is for now, but since there've been a few named demons in lore, ableit not particuarly major ones, probably good to have a system of some kind.--Hawki (talk) 13:45, August 27, 2013 (UTC)
3 primes, 9 names[]
Tathamet and the Lessers have only 1 name each. The three primes have 2 additional names. Could someone add an explanation in this article of where we learn about these alternate names? The second is clearly an extended permutation of the popular name, but the third (Odium/Metos/Excidium) is kinda strange. In both cases knowing the source would be good info for this table. +Yc 18:12, April 6, 2014 (UTC)
Power statement[]
- "The Lesser Evils are second only to the Three Brothers in terms of power"
Should we really be saying this? Lilith#Stats I thought were higher than Hell Andariel's. Not sure about Hell Duriel or Uber Duriel. The Lesser Evils' game stats don't appear to be listed on the wiki, can we include them for comparison?
If the game reflects Lilith being stronger than the Lesser Evils then we should change this statement to read 'said to be second in power'. The world (and demons) may think this, unaware of Lilith's might, but she is stronger, right? +Yc 18:23, April 6, 2014 (UTC)
- If you're using Lilith's stats from the Pandemonium Event (or the "ubers") they're regarded as non-canon, and shouldn't be used as the basis for lore deductions of power.--Hawki (talk) 21:49, April 6, 2014 (UTC)
Images[]
It appears the great evils each have a pair of images which are the same, save a transparent border around one:
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
This scheme continues through the lesser evils as well. Is there a reason to have both variants? And if not, which variant should be kept? I am inclined to toss the ones with transparent borders, but I see that those ones are the image of choice for the top of the corresponding Evils' articles, and perhaps their infoboxes were designed with that border in mind.

Strongest Prime[]
I don't know if it was directly stated in the lore, but in my opinion Baal is the strongest Prime in direct combat. In the Dark Exile, he was the only one that was able to resist being sealed and even shattered his soulstone. Diablo was able to fight Tyrael to a stalemate though both were not at full strength (Diablo was in a host and Tyrael could not fully manifest because of the Worldstone), but Baal, who was in a worse condition (his host was withered to virtually skin on bones) was able to defeat Tyrael. Within the shattered Worldstone (the Cage of Creation) Baal was able to soundly defeat Tyrael who had to be saved by the Shard-seeker. InZodwetrust (talk), 11:37,8 November 2023 (GMT+1)
- Yes, but all of that is speculative. You're comparing out-of-universe speculation with in-universe speculation. I'd actually agree that Baal is the strongest Prime on a martial level, but Cain outright states in his opinion that Diablo is the strongest. In-universe speculation trumps our own.Hawki (talk) 11:10, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
Andariel[]
Is Andariel still part of the Great Evils? To quote Taissa when the Wanderer asked her what she knows about Andariel; "She was once part of something greater, but... Ugh! She doesn't like me talking about it." InZodwetrust (talk). 7:49 (GMT+1), 26 November, 2023.
