For the specific monster of the same name, see Vaal Construct.

A Vaal construct is a type of construct monster created by the Vaal civilization. They are found in the ruins of the Vaal civilization in Act 2 and Act 6, as well as many Vaal side areas.

There are several types of Vaal constructs:

  • Skeletons in animated Vaal armour that attack with melee two-handed weapons or bows
  • Skeletons in animated Vaal armour that cast spells
  • Ranged constructs that fire projectiles
  • Constructs based on snakes

Although the humanoid Vaal constructs contain skeletons, they are not considered undead, as it is the armour that contains life force, not the skeleton.[1]
