出自【暗黑百科】DiabloWiki_凯恩之角
北方暴雪的开发者们在暗黑2中加入了许多大大小小的游戏彩蛋,本页收录了许多暗黑2的未被官方披露过的彩蛋,其中有些可能不符合最严格的对"彩蛋"的定义,但对于暗黑2的粉丝来说它们都能带来很大的乐趣.
目录 |
大彩蛋
这些彩蛋和未被官方披露过的特色的重要性值得我们使用另外的专页来叙述.玩家可以通过使用这些彩蛋而在游戏中获益.
秘密奶牛关
秘密奶牛关是一个隐藏的关卡,作为流传于暗黑1的一个玩笑,谣言,传说而被加入了暗黑2.它是真的,在暗黑2中我们能看到一整个地图的地狱奶牛手执长戟把你劈了当柴火烧.请参照任务页面来了解如何进入这一关的详细方法.
混乱事件
混乱事件是一个在完成游戏之后加入的多人任务,最早出现在1.11版本.让玩家能够进入混乱崔斯特瑞姆并和这里最难对付的怪物交手以获得地狱火炬.请参照相关页面来了解详细内容.
超级暗黑破坏神
超级暗黑破坏神任务在1.10版中被加入.他是一个大大加强了的暗黑破坏神.当某个服务器上有一定数量的乔丹之石被卖给商人之后,他就有可能会出现.杀死超级暗黑破坏神能获得毁灭小符.请参照相关页面来了解详细内容.
娜塔亚(Natalya)
娜塔亚是一个在第三幕的库拉斯特海港出现的NPC.她的作用是让大家能提前了解到刺客这个角色,这个角色在之后的资料篇中正式加入.请参照关于她的文章来了解详细内容.
小彩蛋
第五幕里雇佣兵名字的变动
这个神秘事件发生在2009年,暗黑2的"v1.13补丁"更新的时候.这个补丁的文本文档里说明两个佣兵的名字"Klar"和"Tryneus"已被加进游戏.然后当粉丝们找到代码时他们发现佣兵的名字只是被掉包了:
- 在v1.13里,佣兵136号(MercX136)的名字是"Klar",v1.12里则是"Weohstan".
- 在v1.13里,佣兵135号(MercX135)的名字是"Tryneus",v1.12里则是"Erfor".
暴雪对这个不明显的变动并未作出任何解释.一些粉丝则推测这些名字其实是为了给暗黑3的剧情铺路,因为在暗黑2发售的8年后暴雪也没有有其他理由再去改动两个佣兵的名字.假设由于剧情原因暗黑3有必要用到暗黑2第五幕里佣兵的名字,暴雪可以随时轻松地取用这两个已经存在的名字.所以说如果有意地去琢磨暴雪的行为意图,他们改名字的手段看起来还是有意义的.
维特的尸体
维特-独脚男孩,在暗黑1中是一个的NPC,他出售魔法物品,其中很多比能从其他任何方式获得的物品都要好,这让他获得了许多访客.但每看一次他出售的物品的属性就必须支付50金币,由于99%的物品并不是玩家想要的,而且维特的位置离镇子很远,50金币的价格对于新玩家来说也是一笔巨款,这个独腿的小混蛋从大多数玩家那里吸收到了巨量的仇恨.维特的尸体在暗黑2的崔斯特瑞姆废墟中可以找到,作为一个可以点击的对象躺在镇子的西侧(靠近暗黑1中通往他的位置的桥).当你点击之后,维特会掉落维特之腿,一个半唯一的物品,可以通过它来进入秘密奶牛关,还能获得一大堆随机金额的金钱.在暗黑2的Beta中,维特的尸体掉落的是一大堆金额为50的金币,这对暗黑1的玩家们来说实在是大快人心.
娱乐一下(SoundChaosDebug)
在游戏里输入/SoundChaosDebug能听到游戏里的所有声音,可以一个叠加另一个.再次输入/SoundChaosDebug可以关闭所有的声音.这实际上不是一个彩蛋,而是一个开发阶段遗留下来的程序测试.
窗口化游戏
想要窗口化暗黑2,在命令行中输入-w即可.这不是一个彩蛋,但它是一个很有用的没被官方披露过的小技巧.
- 浏览游戏命令页面中的关于窗口化及其他命令的指导请见这里.
命名
许多物品,怪物,雇佣兵和其他游戏中的内容都是以暴雪的员工,朋友,专题站站长,新闻等来命名的.这些名字都对游戏的进行没什么影响,也不需要任何特殊的方式来激活它们,它们仅仅只是一些有趣的小故事.
地点
- 瓦特之厅是以Fred Vaught命名的,他是一名背景设计师.
Monsters
- Creeping Feature, a zombie boss in Act 2, was named as an inside joke, in honor of the continually-growing list of game features that were causing delays. The name is a variation of the term Feature Creep, which is described by wikipedia as, "...the rapid expanding of features in a product such as computer software."
- Frozenstein, the Act V Super Unique, is a clear reference to the fictional Frankestein's monster.
- Lord de Seis was named for Rick Seis, Diablo II's Lead Programmer.
- Shenk the Overseer was named for Phil Shenk, a Character Artist.
- Sextons, one subtype of the Act Three Zakarum Priests, share a name with Eric Sexton, another of the game's designers. This is thought simply to be a coincidence though, since the word sexton is a noun describing a church official.
Items
- The Aldur's Watchtower Item Set is named after Aldur, one of the seven gods who created the world in David Eddings' novel, The Belgariad
- The Blade of Ali Baba (Unique Tulwar) and its properties are a reference to the famous hero of Arabic literature.
- Bverrit Keep -- The unique tower shield is thought to be a phonetic play on the last name of David Brevik, Diablo 2's designer and co-founder of Blizzard North.
- Dave's younger brother Peter Brevik joined Blizzard North and worked as a programmer on Diablo 2, so he might be tied into this one as well, somehow.
- Ginther's Rift -- This unique sword got it's name from Gray Ginther, a fan who won a contest to have a D2X unique item named after him.
- Heaven's Brethren All of the items in this D2X set are taken from Korean mythological figures. The images as well, are all copied from historical Korean weapons. See the note on Historical Accuracy for details and pics.
- The Messerschmidt's Reaver Unique Axe (also found in Diablo I) was (apparently) named after a David Gottlieb Messerschmidt, a German physician, naturalist and geographer.
- Schaeffer's Hammer was named for brothers Max and Erich Schaefer, co-creators of Diablo and co-founders of Blizzard North. (This was one of the few returning unique items from Diablo I.)
- Sexton's Trophy is the name of one an exceptional quality Necromancer-only totem. This may be named after Eric Sexton, or may just be a coincidence. (See "Sexton," in the monster listing of this page.)
- Tancred's Battlegear is named after a real person, a knight crusader from the first crusade in the Ninth Century.
- The Diggler -- This unique dirk is a play on words, inspired by the fictional male porn star Dirk Diggler, from the film Boogie Nights.
Other Names
- The Steeg Stone, an object that was to act as a guild treasury in the begun but never-finished Guild Halls was named after Stieg Hedlund, one of the game's designers.
- Reziarfg -- This monster is not found in the game, but is listed on the official Diablo 2 site on Battle.net, complete with a hideous image. The name comes from long-time Blizzard web developer G. Fraizer, spelled backwards.
Mercenaries
Many of the Mercenaries were named after Blizzard North employees or friends/family. A few were also named after prominent members of the Diablo fansite community. Not all the name shout outs are known or can be known, since many had private/personal meaning to individual Blizzard North employee. As such, this should be considered a partial list.
Act One Rogues
Full listing of Act One Rogue names. Many of the rogues were named for girlfriends, wives, or other relatives, but the relations have not been made public, so only a few can be listed here.
- Elly -- One of the four staff members of Diabloii.net with a merc named after her.
- Gaile -- One of the four staff members of Diabloii.net with a merc named after her.
- Isolde -- One of the online nicknames for Peter Hu, a Diablo 2 lead programmer.
- Divo -- Named for Divo Palinkas, a Diablo 2 programmer and one of the few female Blizzard North employees.
Act Two Desert Mercenaries
Full listing of Desert Mercenary names. The origins of most Act 2 merc names are unknown.

Act Three Iron Wolves
Full listing of Iron Wolf names.
- Flux -- The online name of one of the four webmasters of Diabloii.net to be so honored. (Flux also got an NPC named after him in Torchlight, as thanks for his webmastering work on a Hellgate:London and Mythos fansite. [1])
- Jarulf -- The author of Jarulf's Guide, a fan possessed of legendary Diablo I knowledge.
- Scorch -- The webmaster of Darkness, the first Diablo 2 monsters-specialized fansite. Hosted by Diabloii.net.
Act Five Barbarians
The full list of Act Five Barbarian names is massive; by far the longest of any type of merc. Most are inspired by or taken straight from Norse mythology, but a few more shout outs appear here as well, for people who missed the cut to make it into D2C.
- Bill -- Possibly a shout out to Bill Roper, Diablo 2 producer and ex-Blizzard PR guru.
- Lanth -- The online name of a long-time Diablo fan, who used to regularly chat about game features with Peter Hu in the Diabloii.net chat room. Presumably that contact got him into the game.
