Champions are higher quality versions of monsters, found alone or in small groups scattered throughout the world of Diablo 3. Champions are (generally) less powerful than [[boss]]es, but are much stronger than normal monsters, and spice up the play experience by presenting players with a greater challenge.

There are numerous types of champions, many of them repeating the champion varieties found in later versions of Diablo 2. See the champions information in the Diablo 2 section of this wiki for full details on those.

==Diablo 3 Champions==

Diablo 2 features five types of Champion monsters: Berzerker, Champion, Fanatic, Ghostly, and Possessed.

So far, three of those types (Champion, Fanatic, Possessed) have been seen in Diablo 3, along with one new type; Frenzied. It's not known how precisely the Diablo 3 versions emulate the Diablo 2 versions with the same names, but they seemed fairly similar to players who encountered them in the Blizzcon 2009 demo.

* '''Champions''' were like mini-bosses; much the same as the normal monsters of their type, but harder hitting, faster, and blessed with many more hit points.
* '''Fanatics''' were faster than usual. It's presumed they are similar to the Diablo 2 Berzerkers, who gained 100% more speed and 70% more Attack Rating.
* '''Frenzied''' were very fast but also took a long time to kill, unlike their D2 versions.
* '''Possessed''' took much more damage to finish off, though I don’t think they actually had 12x the hit points of their normal types, as they do in Diablo 2. If they added any more special bonuses I didn’t notice it during the combat.

In addition to their inherent Champion class bonuses, some of the Diablo 3 Champions spawned with boss modifiers as well. More testing will be required to figure out the rules for this; if some always get bonus modifiers, how randomly they are assigned, etc. These modifiers made the Champions considerably more difficult.
