Act III

Ghom is a new character to Diablo, and his title is the Lord of Gluttony.

Not much is known about him besides that he is a servant of Azmodan, and is encountered around the middle of Act III in the Larder. He serves alongside Cydaea, the Maiden of Lust, and Rakanoth, the Lord of Anguish. Ghom appears to have been modeled after the original Thousand Pounder monster type.

Ghom spends his time disrupting the food stores of Bastion's Keep from a breach in the walls, in the larder, in an effort to assist his master Azmodan with the siege. There is a lore book entry that can be gotten from his arena from a half-digested corpse after Ghom has been dealt with.

Boss Abilities

Ghom has very few abilities, and a very specific dynamic: Stay out of the green stuff.

• Acid Slimes - Ghom will rear forward, ejecting copious amounts of poisonous slime from his mouth-belly. The acid on the ground does AoE damage, and also produces three small slime monsters which can be killed for health globes. Ghom can cast this a screen's length away and, while if the player is at range they do not take damage from the acid, the slimes will spawn at the hero's position.

• Sneeze - Ghom will thrash back and forth in a sneezing motion. This attack is not accompanied by audio, and while in and of itself it doesn't do damage, it produces the gas cloud attack.

• Gas Cloud - The gas clouds from Ghom's sneeze (which means that the clouds are not due to flatulence) will surround Ghom and linger for quite a while, harming anything in its wake.

• Chomp - Chomp is Ghom's melee attack, where he lunges forward towards the player, attempting to swallow them whole from his gaping belly-mouth. This attack does moderate damage.
