Wirt is a Diablo I NPC, presumed dead.
Contents
Background
Wirt was found to the far left of Tristram, over a bridge and past the entrance to the Caves. It's a long, winding walk in Diablo I, made much more bearable by the fast walk in Hellfire.
Wirt sells items, but only one at a time, and he'll only show it to you after his infamous 50 gold fee.
Wirt's graft engendered extreme hostility in most Diablo I players, and his fate as a gold-popping corpse in Diablo II was a form of fan service. He was killed in Diablo II by the demons who pillaged Tristram. His corpse can still be found in the east part of town (now on the east side of the river). Wirt's Leg can be found if his corpse is searched, together with the afore-mentioned gold-popping.
Wirt in Diablo 3?
During an interview with IGN, Jay Wilson commented on the possibility of a returning Wirt for Diablo III.[1]
- IGN: Does that mean things like Wirt popping back up? Obviously Cain is going to be in there...
- Jay Wilson: He's on like his eighth leg by now, right? [laughs] I don't know what we're gonna do with that little bugger. I mean, he's dead, so there's not much we can do with him...
- IGN: You never know, he could come back as undead...
- Jay Wilson: That's true, undead Wirt, that's not a bad idea.
