Risen Skulker
Last wiki revision 2023-01-26
The Risen Skulker is a skeletal guardian pet for Unholy death knights who have the All Will Serve talent. It's summoned along with the death knight's Risen Ally via Raise Dead (death knight ability).
Temporary Risen Skulkers can also be summoned with the Bone Borrower and Bone Harvester anima powers.
- The Risen Skulker remains active until the Risen Ally is dismissed or killed. The skulker can die, but it's automatically resummoned when you leave combat as long as the Risen Ally remains active.
- If the Risen Skulker dies and you can't wait to drop combat, it can be manually resummoned by casting Raise Dead again.
- The Risen Ally dying does not cause the skulker to disappear; it will remain active until it dies, too.
- The Risen Skulker doesn't have a pet bar of its own. Instead, it follows the commands you give to your Risen Ally. If the Risen Ally is dead, the skulker can't be given commands.
- The skulker does not benefit from talents or buffs that affect the Risen Ally, such as Dark Transformation.
- Originally, the skulker also had an ability called "Arrow Spray" that dealt damage in an 8 yard radius. It was merged into Skulker Shot at some point.
