But you see I will win this convo cause I'm not biased towards one evil, as your avatar clearly shows. Maybe Diablo cant corrupt people as well as Mephisto, but there is no doubt in my mind that Diablo could kick his skinny skeleton ass. He mobilized the takeover of sanctuary with only a fragment of soulstone to his name. Baal on the other hand is only good at making war. Diablo is equal parts Baal and Mephisto, so he is either equal or better (the sum is greater than the parts).
Mephisto is good at corrupting people with hate.
Baal is good at destroying things.
Diablo is decent at both, which makes him terrifying.
See the contradiction there? Your bias comment is mute
Mephisto devised the takeover of the Sanctuary operation, Mephisto commanded the other two Primes to fufill their roles (Baal pending), Mephisto served as the first defense of the operation.
From the statement above, its easy to tell that Mephisto is the tactician and more defining, cunning. As for your Mephisto + Baal = Diablo, how can you make that remark. Let me define Destruction, Hated, and Terror for you:
When you are scared, what do you do as a human reaction: you turn submissive toward the fear. When you are angry, what do you do as a human reaction: You direct the hate toward yourself and/or others
Now, what would you as a commander of armies have: Submissive warriors, or anger purposeful soldiers? I would say that most commanders would choose the anger side rather than the fear side
Anyways, what does this have to do with Mephisto, Diablo, and Baal? The passages above state that Hatred is stronger that Terror in certain scenarios, Of course Terror beats Hatred is other scenarios too. I have just contradicted myself, but I have also opened up another point: Hatred and Terror cannot be compared, Destruction is pending, BUT I believe that Hatred surpasses Terror in the Diablo Universe plot
I think the problem that Mephisto exploited greatly in the Kurast area is that people of that area have a high for the magical arts. The area is full of Shamans, Sorcerers, Alchemists, etc. Even if the Zakarum priesthood did not employ the demonic magics, I'm sure that they still used magic for healing, if not in defense and in maintaining the once-beauty of Kurast. Mephisto is the more magically-inclined Prime Evil, if I'm not mistaken, and so he probably used the lure of the power of the dark magics to control them ever so slowly, which I think is what the Compelling Orb was- demonic magic. Just a round-about guess.

Perhaps you forgot the title of this thread, who is the most evil, that has nothing to do with who would win in the fight. Diablo is clearly stronger in the game. Thats not bias thats fact. I'd hate to bring this up but Diablo is who the games are named after.
BTW I just had a creepy thought. What if those maggots that popped out of Duriel were infant Duriels?
Jesus, I've taken on five at one time in es mod but there was way more maggots than that. I can hardly imagine trying to take on an army of those things. They would freeze you still and pierce you from all sides with their giant sickles

Ignoring the bias comment, which I have clearly shown
What is the criteria for the most Evil Prime? Since there is no set criteria, so I decided to add another one in this forum

Well noted

Since evil is not the same thing as power, we cannot base it on the abilities of the Prime Evils in-game, since that's power, and also sometimes it's not on par with the actual story. You also can't base it off of Diablo being on the cover, that doesn't mean anything. Baal is on the cover of the LoD box.

I'm guessing that you mean the idea behind the thought was stupid? :confused:
Mephisto, by far, elder, looks more terrfying, now he is by far not the strongest, for that i voted baal, diablo, i meat and cheesed his ass so he, by far is not touching my vote, and perhaps you guys didnt notice that, MEPHISTO IS A FLYING CORPSE!!!!!!!, WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED?!
This is truth, as for your 'who's the strongest comment' have you ever faced UBER Mephisto???????
I'm not sure how, but how the heck can Baal be comapred to Mephisto, Diablo included for that matter. Sure he was the last one to fall, but he couldn't even break free of his soulstone without help
Well Baal WAS trapped in tal rasha who was trapped with magical runes, so its not quite fair to judge him just by that. On a separate note, its a testament of how well Blizzard wrote their demons, that theyre currently all tied as most evil.:)

No actually, the comment inserted 'disturbing' images in my head -shudders-

Lord of hatred. You can't get more evil than that.
