Demonic Path: Baal 🔥

HellSlave II: Judgment of the Archon · published 17 Jul 2026, 17:04 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hey everyone, time for the next Demonic Path.

As a reminder: after clearing the first dungeon, you'll get to pledge yourself to one of six demonic powers (Satan, Leviathan, Mammon, Baal, Asmodeus, or Belzebub).

Each Path is a permanent set of spells that stacks on top of your base class and shapes the rest of your run. The choice is locked in once made, so pick wisely! 😈

Baal, the king of darkness.

Baal annihilates his enemies through poison and disease, and his shadow is the last thing you see before you succumb.

The Baal Spell Set

A melee-focused Path built around poison, dodge, and assassination, with a balance between magic and melee:

  • Infectious Sting: doubles the current number of poison points on the target (after applying any melee poison damage from your weapon).

  • Shock of Baal: if this attack kills the target, you deal poison points to all enemies.

  • Shadowy Technique: after this attack, you disappear, giving you a guaranteed dodge on the next attack you'd receive.

  • Assassination: damage increases for each dodge point you have.

  • Eternal Suppuration: adds a poison point to the target for each poison point they've received since the start of the fight.

  • Terrifying Execution: if this attack kills the target, you gain a large chunk of mana and inflict Weakness on all enemies for a short time.

Hope this Path gets you hyped! Let me know in the comments which Demonic Path you're leaning toward. 👀

Don't forget to wishlist! it helps a lot, thanks. :)
