[[File:Gargantuanwd.jpg|thumb|Gargantuan with a Witch Doctor]].'''Gargantuan''' is a Voodoo [[Witch Doctor skill]] unlocked at [[clvl|level]] 19. It summons a large huge, humanoid zombie to fight for the Witch Doctor. This The Gargantuan deals considerably damage and certainly looks imposing, at more than double the height of a human, with skulls and other objects dangling from chains and hooks set into the undead behemoth's body. Post release this skill has not been tested by players, but like all the summoned creature has been seen other pet skills in data mined screenshotsthe game, was basically useless at higher levels, and it is as the Gargantuan did not scale up enough in defense or hit points to remain alive for more than a huge and terrifying creaturefew seconds on Hell or Inferno difficulties.

The Gargantuan is one of the Witch Doctor's pets, and serves as a tank. [[Jay Wilson]] described it in an interview:[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/character-previews-from-jay-wilson]
Skill tiers were removed shortly before the [[beta]] started in September 2011, and Gargantuan became a level 18 skill. The skill system was once again overhauled for the [[Beta Patch 13]] in February 2012, and Gargantuan was classified as a Voodoo skill and moved to level 19.
Prior to release, Gargantuan hashad never been seen or used by players. ===Post-Release=== Immediately after release, throughout developmentthis skill was as useless as the other pet skills, been too high-level since the Gargantuan did not scale up enough in defense or hit points to play, so there are no gameplay reports describing itremain alive for more than a few seconds on Hell or Inferno difficulties.
