''Locust Swarm'' is an active attack spell in the [[Witch Doctor]]'s [[Plague Skill Tree]]. This projectile emits a spray of green insects which swarm over anything in close range, like flying piranha. The locusts deal poison damage, and have the ability to jump from one infested monster to other nearby targets. (They do this with a green swooshing graphic, [http://www.diii.net/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=1520&size=big&cat=&si=locust&what=allfields&mcats=all as seen here].

The information below is based on the playable demo build at [[BlizzCon 2008]]. It is subject to all kinds of reviews, changes, and balancing before release.

==Spell Base Effects/Costs==

The costs and effects of this spell are currently unknown

Locusts that pass over the Witch Doctor's minions, [[Summon Mongrel|Mongrels]] for instance, will turn the minions green while granting poison damage to all attacks, for as long as the minion persists. (Or until a different skill hits the minion, granting it a different sort of bonus damage.)
