I was yesterday in FH and finally got me my Bone Minion spell. Right away i went to kill something to look at my new undead babys and what i saw was very dissapointing.

Bone Horror and Bone Minion use the same graphic model.

My suggestion ist that Bone Minion's should have another look and not the same as Bone Horrors. I was so happy to get the new spell and then they look alike. From the lil skill image i thought more of an undead thing that was on 4 insect like bone legs or something.

A Bone Horror should be nothing more then bones.

Well the actual look of the Bone Horror is ok. Its a mix out of bones and flesh.
It's the Bone Minions that bug me, they look the same as the Bone Horrors and that is a little bit boring.

Agreed.

I really think the Bone Minions ought to look a little bit more 'zergling-esque.' You know, small fast little things. After all, the idea we are shooting for with the Minions is to get a large group of them going and then swarm over enemies.

Correct, that is what i was thinking, even the Minion icon looks Zerg-y to me.

...woah! I never even noticed that! Which is sad in way, as I've played for quite some time.

Now, if the Minion looked like an undead version of those, that'd be downright shibby!

It would look nice, but bone minions are weaker then bone horrors, and should look/act weaker.

What would be really sweet is if Bone Minions looked like an undead version of whatever you killed. So if you killed a charr for example, it would be a boney, bloody charr running around for you. Or in PvP they would look like Bone horrors but slightly more human.

God do I agree. I personally think the Bone Minions look a little crappy, and to have two of the same versions if it is really weak.

I WANT COOL UNDEAD STUFF!

Ha Ha, I wanted to see a bone dragon, I'm a Dragon Guru I just got my hopes up because I saw something about bone dragons traveling with the undead armies (supposedly of the lost citizens of Orr), and I had hoped they would allow necromancers to have a Summon Bone Dragon skill. But I can't see how they could make a super cool dragon without being overkill, it could be placed, but as soon as you say the word dragon you think, man that's unfair.

I think a Bone Dragon would be too much, ppl would cry about it that they dont got something as cool.
