This does not change anything but Aesthetics.
Jagged Horror
- is now a spikey green and cute little doll with a sewed open smiley face and red eyes…
Summon Bone Fiend
- is now a blue cute little doll with a tiny bow and arrow and a open smiley face with red eyes…
Summon Blood Fiend
- Is now a cute little red doll with a tiny grimoire and a delectable frown, she also has red eyes…
Summon Bone Minions
- Is now a cute green doll with scissors, part of their dress is torn up and they have longer hair then their sister dolls…
Summon Shadow Fiend
- Is now a shadowy doll with red eyes and a pair of red glowing scissors.
Summon Flesh Golem
- Is now a giant teddy bear that is ripped in several places, with a button eye missing and handing down and a giant smiley face ripped and sewn on its mouth.
Summon Flesh Wurm
- Now summons a doll house that its roof opens, revealing a mouth that spits. Inside the mouth you see flesh and bones.
Sounds
- Creepy Gigglings.
- Creepy Laughing.
- Creepy Voices: “Come play wif us…”
- Creepy Voices: “Die and join us…” + giggling.
- Go nuts!

So essentially a skin idea?
I’ve wanted something like this to hit the gem store for a while. Unlikely to happen though as I’m sure it wouldn’t even be considered unless they were able to do something similar with all professions.

Necromancer has the ugliest pets.
NO!
NO |NO NO NO!
NOOOOOOOOOOO!
Terrible idea.
Necromancer’s pets are fine. If this is an idea for a skin-shop item then yeah its fine, everyone wants skins.
If this is base? Hell to the no.
I won’t replace minions with dolls. However they can consider creating a whole new skill line call “Spirit Dolls” or something.

-Warrior Banners
-Engineer Backpacks and turrets
-Ranger spirits/pet skins
-Guardian weapons
They could basically sell skins for all sorts of summons.
But if this would ever come, i want an option to replace other people’s skins with the default skin, just in case they add something awful looking like these dolls. (And they could implement the same for the Super Adventure Box-kitten btw)
I still think that ponies (suffering is magic), puppies and chicken would be way more fun skins, but i guess dolls are ok too.
I think many here have no idea what a haunted doll look like. They are actually pretty scary and a skill line of Spirit Dolls would fit the necro theme perfectly.

Dolls can be horrible little monsters while still looking cute, CHIPS. Remember the toyhouse dungeon?
I kind of like the idea of having what look like mini-pets as skins for the minions but this topic is probably a year old, already.
You can search the forums for similar… Oh, wait, nvm.
Ever seen Puppetmaster? Hell yeah….
(I’m all for reskin packs, not as a permanent thing though!)
That woiuld be pretty creepy, i like it!
Might be a nice new revenue stream for ANet too: custom-skinned versions of existing skills on the gem store. For warriors, how about banners with creepy clowns or cute quaggans on them? For eles, how about a Flaming Rubber Chicken instead of a Fiery Greatsword?
I can also think of lots of rude ones but thery’d probably get me banned from the forums :p
We already have candy cane hammers and princess fairy wands so why not skill effects too?
I think this is neat..I got the game.. seen the Necromancer pets and sighed.. doesn’t look anything like a Necro would use.. maybe something like a Fleshcrafter or butcher but where are the skellies etc?
What? You don’t like this guts-mess creatures?
How about depending on your race, you get ghosts (or zombies) of the same race as your minions?

Well the flesh golem is our Butcher. But the art of Butcher is much better. >_>
The problem with dolls is that it goes against lore.
Necros don’t possess things, and they don’t actually raise the dead. They form minions from leftover bits of dead creatures, and form them into shapes. That’s why minions are do horribly disfigured.

How do the dolls in the Christmas event walk around and talk?

Why cant a necro do the same? Just use the magoc on the dolls?
Thats like saying why can’t a Necromancer use a giant firestorm, because an Elementalist can.
That aside, the whole point of this is just a skin. It doesn’t need to follow lore.

Not really.
Anyone can buy some toys. However only Elementalist can make fire.
Except we aren’t buying toys, we are pulling them out of nowhere and animating them. It is a similar magic, but it isn’t especially Necro (I’m not entirely sure about the lore and magic behind golemancy though).

If you can make ugly globs of flesh/hair.
Why can’t you make dolls of flesh/hair?
You said “cute little doll” for basically every single one. I don’t know many people who would consider the way we create minions as cute. Is it possible to create a doll-shaped sack of flesh and organs like we do now? Yeah, sure. It’d be pretty grotesque though.

That depends on what you think is cute, however plastic surgury suggests what you can and can’t do. It would take a very skilled necromancer but why not?
Undead chickens would be better.
Being able to summon Risen would be cool idea, a smaller version of the Abomination would make a good golem, and the other risen have very similar abilities to the standard necro minions. As a Sylvari necro I would like to see some vegetation themed skins.
As for creepy dolls, inspiration could be taken from the Silent Hill mannequin spider and nurses.

Some people find that cute.
I want this! =D
