Metadata ID: Metadata/Items/Gems/SkillGemRaiseZombie

Raise Zombie is a spell that consumes a corpse to summon an allied zombie minion. Zombies attack using melee attacks and an area of effect slam.

Skill functions and interactions

• Support Gems: Any support gem that would work on a melee attack will be used by the player's zombies' attacks when linked to this gem. In addition to their melee attacks, zombies occasionally use an area of effect slam attack which can be scaled with support gems, area of effect passive skills, and the threshold jewel.

• Corpse Targeting: Holding down the corpse targeting toggle (defaults to the "a" button) makes it easier to choose a corpse to raise.

• Zombie Limit: The maximum amount of raised zombies can be increased by passive skills and unique items (see below for more information).

The slam is now slower and has 30% less base damage effectiveness at gem level 1, rising to the previous damage effectiveness around gem level 17. Note that these changes are not visible on the skill gem. Base Zombie damage has been reduced by approximately 25% at all gem levels.
