==Skill Design==
Descriptions of this skill viewable at Blizzcon 2009 and Blizzcon 2010 gave only vague information about its function, but an August 2011 gameplay video ([http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/new-diablo-3-gameplay-trailer]) shows it in use. A Witch Doctor is seen to use the skill several times in rapid succession, summoning a Fetish Shaman with each use. Each Shaman remains stationary and bathes the ground in a broad area around itself with pulsing, green light. As soon as one such Shaman is summoned, a wraith within its field is seen to spontaneously transform into a clucking, white chicken and wander aimlessly for several seconds, before spontaneously reverting to its original form. Several skeletons within the same Shaman's AoE remain unaffected.
