Lunatic Behavior

Stabstabstab.

Though Lunatics have not yet been seen in action, their name, appearance, and the brief description offered by Blizzard makes them sound a bit like the Explosive Minions seen in Diablo II. Lunatics are said to be suicidal and explosive, but in the screenshots they hold their daggers up, Psycho-style, as though they're rushing in to stab the hero, rather than stab themselves. Perhaps they attack initially, and only go suicidal if they're nearing death?

Players will need to see how quickly they explode, how far away they are when they start stabbing themselves, if they have a melee attack first, and other details, to know just how dangerous these monsters really are.

Lunatic Lore

The Blizzard bestiary page offers this brief description of the demons.[1]

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.
