The '''Witch Doctor''', abbreviated '''WD''', is a pure [[caster|spellcaster]], dealing with elemental magic, nature magic, necromancy and alchemy. The class has taken some inspiration from the [[Necromancer]] of [[Diablo II]], in its ability to summon pets of various types, as well as cast some mind control spells. The Witch Doctor is a much more active, spell-attacking class than the Necromancer was, though. A Witch Doctor can not succeed just summoning pets and sitting back; the Witch Doctor has to be much closer to the fray, constantly using attack spells to supplement the damage dealt by various short-lived pets.
