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).

• Zombie Attack: Despite the tooltip claims the zombie attack is a Slam skill (internal id: ZombieSlam), it cannot be supported by Fist of WarFist of War SupportSlam, Attack, Melee, AoE, Support

Mods

Amulets can have an influence mod to have +1 to maximum number of Raised Zombies. Alternatively, similar mod can be found on non-influenced amulets that drop in specific Delve node. Lastly, has the implicit . It is possible to create talisman that have both the implicit and the drop-only Delve explicit, by using Jorgin's crafting bench. But since the game has more than one T1 talisman basetype, it is not guaranteed to do so.

In addition, another Delve drop-only mod can be found on certain body armour. There are other mod () on legacy body armour, but they can only be obtained from trading with other players in the permanent leagues. They are in the same mod group "MaximumMinionCount" thus no such +2 Zombie body armour existed.

Jun, Veiled Master can unveil a crafting mod for Helmets:

Total

Players can have a maximum of 18 (19 if using talisman ) zombies at once:

• 6 from the level 20 skill gem (up to 8 zombies from level 34 gems, but not practical to reach such gem level)
• 2 from passive skills
• 1 from a body armour
• 1 from Jun's veiled mod on helmet
• 1 from amulet (2 from that has the correct implicit , which would be doubled due to Eyes of the Greatwolf's explicit mod; or specially crafted talisman listed above)
• 7 from unique items:
  • 2 from dual wielding
  • 5 from with 2500 Strength (1 zombie for 500 Strength unless using legacy item; 3000 Strength may be reached by some build)
