The Pandemonium Fortress a place of great power and mystery, High Heavens' ancient staging ground for incursions into Hell. Standing as the last bastion of the Light before the Gates of the Burning Hells, this place has been hallowed by the blood of thousands of champions, mortal and Angel alike.

The Pandemonium Fortress is an ancient fortress in Pandemonium that once contained The Worldstone. Archangel Tyrael saw its construction, and since then the fortress changed owners many times - some times under Angels, some times under Demons. Each of them added to its fortifications. The fortress is known to change in appearance according to who controls it, but according to Tyrael it has never been in its current state while under any Angelic control before.

In Reaper of Souls, Pandemonium Fortress is a 3-level dungeon. It is the last area before facing Malthael. The player enters it from The Ram after completing Breaching the Fortress quest. The map of the area is separated into various segments that you travel through. Red gateways known as Death Gates sometimes connect paths that are not directly attached,and throughout the area there are archways that at filled with electrical field that stun (and possibly freeze) as well as damage players if passed through.

Description

Comprised of a small antechamber, a sanctified waypoint and a plateau where trades can be made, it is miraculous that the structure could stand against the corrupting powers of Hell.

While it seems strange that Halbu and Jamella - often called the Merchants of Light - would engage in matters as trivial as the buying and selling of armor and weapons, it makes a certain sense in the scope of how the agents of Heaven are allowed to interact with those of the mortal realm. Like Tyrael, they are forbidden to aid brave adventurers directly, but their buying and selling of items is indirect help at best, allowing them to follow the letter of their Holy Law.
