Clean up in Aisle 3! It's a Volatile Zombie

We’ve been working on an explosive addition to the Acolyte’s toolkit! We’re super excited to be showing you Volatile Zombie, a new summoning spell she will acquire in Patch 0.8.2. Below you can find the tooltip, skill art, and a selection of some of the nodes on its specialization tree.

NOTE: This skill is still in development, so we’ve omitted most numbers from the below tooltips.

I really do like “unconventional” minion skills.

This, wraith and abomination might make me play some kind of wonky summoner build

very intriguing skill! looking forward to rolling a new necro to try it out

This looks fun when combined with the Sacrifice skill. Big Boom!

She attempted to projectile vomit at me from above the other day so probably yes. I managed to dodge but the splat on the floor was horrific.

16 mana?!
Seems to me not as leveling/clearing skill at this cost.

Please understand that Patch 0.8.2 is approximately two months away.

We haven’t finished performing balance passes; for much of its content, we haven’t started.

WHOA. Have to brush off my necromancer now.

Ha! I’m working on a build right now that turns skeles and wraiths into this using Drain Life and Dread Shade.

This is for Acolyte though, lol.

Nice one!

Mmmmm, vomiting explosive zombies… Even I’d play a minion skill with something like that!

Yup, the wife has never had one of the kids do that on her! At all!

This new skill sounds stellar. Can’t wait to see it in action.

This sound haunts me during the day as well.

its messed up… but like the vomit they do, well I’d like to see them vomit spiders the jumping kind (because I’m just that evil
now that i think of it a Spider class maybe? like using spiders as dps not the half spider deal ( 40% chance of a killed enemy exploding with spiders
oh and chance any character skin color would be amazing
