Change my view: binding Nihlathak

I'm going to present my case for why I feel

Bind Demon should work on

Nihlathak.

First point: Dark rogues,

Blood Raven, etc are all 'demon' type creatures. They were formerly human, but were corrupted by

Andariel, becoming demons.

Second point:

Mephisto and the council. After being imprisoned beneath

Travincal,

Mephisto corrupted the Zakarum high priests, with the exception of Khalim (you know, the guy whose body parts you chase around Act III). After the other priests killed Khalim, Sankekur became Que-Hegan of the council, and later was so corrupted by

Mephisto that he literally became

Mephisto. This is another example of a human becoming a demon under the influence of one of the Evils, though it's unclear the exact role the soulstone played in this. Likewise, the other council members are demon types, and bear twisted forms to make this even more evident.

Third point: The Wanderer and

Tal Rasha. Both of these former heroes were also corrupted by Prime Evils, this time through the influence of the soulstones. When you finally fight them, they are capital-D Demons.

Fourth point:

Nihlathak was corrupted by

Baal, a Prime Evil. After his Death,

Qual-Kehk describes him as a 'vile demon' that shall find his home 'among the tortured minions of Hell'.

Fifth point: If you consider Diablo III Lore as canon (I'm not sure I do, since the creative team was entirely different), then all humans are half demon, half angel, and should be bindable. Bind

Malah and have her churn out scrolls of resistance, bind

Larzuk for unlimited sockets, and bind

Gheed for unlimited free gambles- but that's just silly, so let's not consider D3 canon.

Sixth point: The Warlock is severely underpowered, and needs a minion that can summon exploding minions and then explode their corpses to kill things within a three-screen radius. Yes, this last point is sarcasm, but it would still be funny to see. I mean, in for a penny, in for a pound, right?

I suppose it should be bindable because even Hephasto is and its a quest creature aswell as

Nihlathak.

But about your fifth point, suppose the bind only works in FULL demons, imagine if we could bind another player and make them lose control and "AI" take over.

To OP, based on ingame story , nith is not a demon. He isnt corrupted by baals like the others you have stated, he is however influenced by

Baal and to his people, he believes his actions are justified - very different than what you mentioned dark rogue etc, those were actual corrupted humans who turned demons, totally different than what Nith is.

Nith, after all a human necromancer.

So no, he shouldnt be bindable. Thr “vile demon”, that is a figure of speech , not really meant to say he IS a demon. Same thig when people say to a murderer “ you are a demon”… you get my point.

If he's an ass then he should be joinable to druid's wandering menagerie.
