There is no plans to charge for it in the future. They removed it because the skeletons from witch doctor are simply terrible, and replaced with zombies in 3.0. Progress through your sorcery path to regain undead
I agree with you it makes it much easier to not have to level them.
However, conversely it will force some players to have continual bases around thrall camps for farming every day or other day. More load on servers.
Now I didn’t fight with skeletons much so can’t speak to their combat prowess or bugs. But as a sorcery update it makes sense you should be able to have skeletons around.
I don’t mind the zombies but skeletons and wights had so much more aesthetic appeal to the game from an Rp perspective then a hunched over thrall.
I disagree with the way this was handled. And certainly unhappy with Funcoms decision on this.
It’s a sorcery thing and removing aspects of undead goes against this whole premise.
But I get it “game changes over time”. But I do think this is a step backwards especially given the theme of this update.
Thanks again though for the reply. I do appreciate the quick response as it was vexing trying to determine if I could still craft it. Cheers
I don’t think any actual content will be paywalled. Sure, undead hyena could be just a skin for a living hyena, but I’d be disappointed if the skeletons were just reskins for zombies (or thralls because they’d still bleed and suffer from poison).
