==Lunatic Behavior==
 
 
 
[[File:Fallen-lunatic1.jpg|left|thumb|Stabstabstab.]]
 
The lunatics are a bit like the {{iw|Minion Explosive Minions}} seen in Diablo II. Lunatics are suicidal and explosive, but they hold their daggers up, Psycho-style, as though they're rushing in to stab the hero, rather than stab themselves. They attack initially, and will go suicidal after a short time in proximity to a hero or a follower.
 
 
 
Lunatics do have a low-damage melee attack, but they do not frequently get the chance to display them. They are low on health, but they come in large numbers, which can be troublesome as they sift through an [[elite]] melee group or otherwise sneak up on the player. The lunatics are able to "prime" their suicide attack when the player is on the other side of a door, exploding almost immediately upon opening the door, even though the player had no idea they were there. Overall, if a player is using reticence and taking in their surroundings, the lunatics won't pose a danger, unless they're allowed to get too close.
 
 
 
===Lunatic Elite Packs===
 
 
 
Lunatics are capable of spawning as [[elite]] packs, usually champions, which is odd, when viewed from the perspective that they are basically kamikaze bombers.
 
The elite lunatic will still approach the player and perform their belly-stabbing attack, which does extra damage as an elite, but also immediately kills them, no matter their [[boss modifiers]]. If the player does not do sufficient damage to the elite lunatic, then no loot will be dropped. Below is a video of a follower absorbing the blast of a [[champion]] lunatic pack, with a [[Monk]] doing no damage at all:

==Lunatic Lore==
 
The Blizzard bestiary page offers this brief description of the demons.[http://us.blizzard.com/diablo3/world/bestiary/thefallen.xml]
 
::'''''Lunatic''' - These enraged, oversized fallen creatures are bloated seemingly to the point of bursting, an impression buttressed by the fact that these insane demons rush their intended victims and then stab themselves until they explode. A more fitting name could not be found for these maniacal beings.
 
 
 
From the notes of [[Abd al-Hazir]]:
 
 
 
::The Fallen Lunatics are the most unstable of their kind, causing them to overproduce highly combustible fluids in their abdomens. I believe this imbalance must be inevitably fatal, leading the lunatics to puncture their stomachs and release their explosive bile in terrible display when enemies come near.
