<span style="color:red;">'''This page archives original versions of Witch Doctor skills that were changed during development. These are archived for future curiosity and reference. This page is not to be updated with current info; see the [[Witch Doctor skills]] article for the latest information about these skills.'''</span> The Witch Doctor's skills were first revealed in October 2008, at Blizzcon, when only about ten were usable. They were shown again, in much-expanded form at Blizzcon 2009, when most were enabled. The biggest changes occurred at Blizzcon 2010, after all the passive skills had been moved to the [[Witch Doctor traits]], this removing all [[passive skills]], while freeing up space for more [[active skills]]. * [[Skill]]s -- General skill design and mechanics of [[passive]] and [[active]] skills.* [[Witch Doctor skills]] -- The current state of the class. All are active skills.* [[Witch Doctor traits]] -- Where Passive skills are housed in Diablo III. See the [[skill|skill article]] for further details on how the tier systems evolved and the skill system in general. ==Blizzcon 2010 Skills to Traits== The biggest change to the skills came in Blizzcon 2010, when the new non-tree skill tree was debuted, with all of the passive skills modified into various traits. While there were no new Witch Doctor skills in the build (unusual, since the Wizard, Barbarian, and Monk had numerous new skills), quite a few were removed. Many of these were turned, more or less directly, into [[Witch Doctor Traits]]. * [[Zombie Skill Tree]]** [[Mind and Body]]** [[Unrelenting Assault]]** [[Leader of the Pack]]** [[Ferocity]]* [[Spirit Skills]]** [[Spirit Vessel]]** [[Rituals]]** [[Spirit Sense]]** [[Ritual of Blood]]** [[Meditation]]** [[Death Pact]]* [[Voodoo Skills]]** [[Jungle Fortitude]]** [[Blood Rites]] Here's how the Witch Doctor skill trees looked prior to Blizzcon 2010. Many of the skills remain, though most are modified in various ways. {{Class skill archive topSkill navbox zombie}}{{Skill navbox spirit}}{{Skill navbox voodoo}}
