This skill summons Fetishes, the little monsters from Act III in [[Diablo II]], to fight for the Witch Doctor.
==Skill Design==
As of Blizzcon 2009, Nothing nothing was known about the skill other than the name and the written description. Some months later a bit more information was added by [[Bashiok]] in a March 2010 forum post. <ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/blue-posts-on-shields-zookeeper-builds-and-healig-spells/Blue Posts On shields, zookeeper builds, and healing spells]-- Incgamers 11th Mar 2010</ref>.
::Fetish army is really the only mass-summon spell the witch doctor has. The fetish army spell effects are coming along too, it's looking pretty amazing. But it's really more of an AoE that happens to do its damage by sending out little dudes to fight.
==Trait Synergies==Several of the known [[Synergiestraits]]==have bonuses that boost the effectiveness of Fetish Army.* [[Fetish Leader]] -- : Increases damage done by Fetish skills. * [[Ferocity]] -- : Increases damage done by your summons.* [[Care of the Master]] -- : Increases the health of your summons. '''Note:''' The current trait list is very out-of-date and will no doubt be overhauled before game release.
==[[Rune|Skill Rune]] Effects==Blizzard's @Diablo twitter account let us know about one effect The known [[rune]] effects for Fetish Army are:* Unknown rune: The army of fetishes appears in January 2010. skeleton form<ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/never-seen-skill-has-improved-graphics/Never-Seen Skill Has Improved Graphics] -- Incgamers 7th Jan 2011<blue/ref>Witch doctor’s Fetish Army now has all rune effects complete. An army of fetishes in skeleton form? Yes please.</blue>
This is clearly an homage to the exploding (and very deadly) Stygian Doll type of fetish, seen in the Durance of Hate in Act III of Diablo II. If this follows the Diablo II style of the monster, this runestone effect will cause the dolls to explode upon impact with enemies, making them very short-lived, but very damaging.
