Question about Raise the dead

The skill attached to Raise the dead need to kill the enemy for the skeletons to rise? or if for example, I use Devouring swarm and storm totem kills it, does it work, since the devouring debuff is still applied while the mob died?

Thanks

No.

You need the skill Raise the Dead is bound to to deal the last bit of damage that kills something. Just doing some damage to it doesn’t work.

Yepper, I’ve tested it myself and can confirm that the bound skill has to kill the enemy, even if the bound skill has a debuff element like Devouring Swarm. Therefore, low damage, high-AoE skills are the worst at proccing this devotion skill. Fortunately, at higher levels, you get a much longer duration on the skeletons, so even if you kill a few enemies with the wrong skill, you should be able to keep up 3-5 for the majority of fights no problem.

Thanks guys ! :wink:
