Passive and Magic Skills †

Decoy †

Difference from the LoD version: None.
Pros: Effectively attract melee and ranged enemies. Recastable.
Cons: No offensive ability.

Base Life	Caster's Life x 50%
Max Life%	0	+10
Resist all%	4	+4 (capped at 85 at slvl 22) (actually capped at 75)
Duration (seconds)	10	+5
Mana Cost		-0.75 (reaches 0 at slvl 27)

EDIT TOP

Inner Sight †

Difference from the LoD version: Reduces enemy physical resistance and breaks physical immunities. Reduces enemy defense not by value but by percentage. Improved skill radius.
Pros: Stacks together with Necromancer curses, may be used with amplify/decrepify to lower physical resists further, and better break physical immunes, with lifetap for better leeching, with Confuse for better crowd control, or any other curse you may wish to try.

Cons: Quickly diminishing returns make large investments in Inner Sight of little value (though investing in its synergies is quite effective). Overwrites and is overwritten by Slow Missiles.

Critical Strike †

Difference from the LoD version: None.
Pros: Even 1 point grants a good physical damage boost with +skill items.
Cons: Diminishing returns make large investments in this skill of little value. (If you plan to use Innser Sight, it gives a good synergy, though.)

EDIT TOP

Eagle Eye †

A new ES skill: A pseudo aura (like Assassin's Burst of Speed) which grants Enhanced Damage at the cost of IAS.
Pros: The damage bonus is huge. Especially works well with Dance of Death (Whirlwind) which isn't affected by off-weapon IAS.
Cons: The IAS penalty can be problematic with most builds. (Skill IAS is difficult to negate with Item IAS.) Overwrites and is overwritten by BoS, Fade and Shadow Armor.
Notes: Can't be used with BoS and Fade, but it's useful to use oskill BoS/Fade to cancel the remaining duration of Eagle Eye. If you use Dance of Death and Eagle Eye, and like to switch to Shadow Strike to kill PIs, you will want to cancel the effect of Eagle Eye, for example.
Eagle Eye's IAS penalty is Skill IAS, which is difficult to negate with Item IAS. But the Skill IAS from Fanaticism and Annihilation effectively negates the penalty.
Crossbows may be better than bows to use with Eagle Eye. Crossbows can't attain 2 frame Strafe, but attaining 3 frame Strafe is possible with Eagle Eye, and their base damage is very good.

slvl	1	2-8	9-16	17-22	23-28	29+
Damage%	180	+10
Crushing Blow%	5	+1
IAS Penalty%	-80	+0.5 (capped at -50 at slvl 61)
Duration (seconds)	120	+12

Synergies: Innser Sight: +12 Seconds Per Level
Slow Missiles: +12 Seconds Per Level

Valkyrie †

Difference from the LoD version: None.
Pros: The toughest minion in the game. Benefit from the equipment (Aura whien equipped, for example.)
Cons
Notes: Generated with random equipment. The base Defense and Attack Rating are determined by the armor and Dexterity. The base Damage is determined by the weapon and Strength.
Please also see Vaikyrie's Equipment and Life Regeneration.

slvl	1	2-8	9-16	17-22	23-28	29+
Base Life	400-480

Pierce †

Difference from the LoD version: Linear returns instead of diminishing returns.
Pros: Piercing attack is very useful and rarely appears on items.
Cons: Capped at 100%. You may like to attain 100% pierce for ranged builds as soon as possible. But if you can't use PlugY, there is a possibility of overinvestment.

slvl	1	2-8	9-16	17-22	23-28	29+
Chance To Pierce% (ES)	20	+3 (Capped at 100% at slvl 28)
Chance To Pierce% (LoD)	diminishing return (10-100)
