can it still be with u when u have the unholy ghoul effet on u

Kommentar von blah17

this is instant cast, 5 min cooldown, It seems like Death knights will be able to bring their partner back as a ghoul to keep fighting after death, pretty cool imo.

Kommentar von Zylvyn

You can tell it to attack, follow or stay, you can put it on aggressive, defensive or passive. It has four abilities. One is an energy sink, claw, for more DPS. One is a 10 second channelled ability to halve all damage taken. The third is a 3 second stun with some damage, and the fourth is leap... which is sort of like a charge, but without an attack at the end, relying on the ghoul's autoattack, instead.

Kommentar von 165360

I saw in video that it requires no body to be used as long as you have corpse dust, but it requires nothing if theres human corpse available, so you can summon it without any materials exept the dust.

Kommentar von nick31896

is this only for unholy specced?
or can blood and frost use it?

Kommentar von flaco

This is a base skill, meaning any spec can use it once you have learned it

Kommentar von 156620

Will you be able to target which corpse you will be able to bring back as a ghoul? Like a rez only giving a ghoul?

Kommentar von 143174

How much hp he has?

more screenshots plz

Kommentar von 151016

Are you sure the ghoul was Feared and not Turned? It makes sense that the ghoul would be undead, since Death Coil's healing component would be pretty much useless if it wasn't (with the exception of Lichborne;) if it was undead, the ghoul would be subject to the same advantages and disadvantages as a DK using Lichborne.

Kommentar von kaze950

I don't know if its because I have the talent that makes the pet stay out forever, but my ghoul had a randomized name. Once it was Skullkeeper, now it is Cryptcaller (name changed when I resummoned)

Kommentar von 38522

Does the Orc racial +dmg for pet work on raised ghouls?

Kommentar von 245464

Just learned something kinda fantastic.

If you /glare at your ghoul when you've made him your pet, he will actually start to cower.

I'm still experimenting with other emotes to see what works and what doesn't. I'll post updates as they come.

Edit: If you /cower at him, he will spread his arms and yell at you all frightening-like.

Edit: If you /soothe him, he will do the same thing, and it will stop him from cowering.

Edit: If you use the "Leap" spell on any friendly target in Stormwind, a guard will appear and start patrolling the area.

Kommentar von Roguewiz

Add "head" to the list of suffixes. I managed to get "Bonehead" last night.

Kommentar von 241623

I want one called HammerCatcher...
throwing hammers at a ghoul = profit

Kommentar von 30827

Interesting note: if you are a death knight who hasn't yet completed the http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13189 (horde) or http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13188 (alliance), which means npcs in Orgrimmar & Durotar / Stormwind & Elwynn appear unfriendly, and someone casts raise dead on your corpse there, you are no longer pacified/silenced and you are able to attack your own faction npcs in ghoul form, like it was during plague of undeath event.

P.S. Works only with raise dead, but not with http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=49157

Kommentar von wutz

Funny thing. As you know the ghoul has jump (sort of charge) ability. And it engages its target in combat even if the target is friendly. Once I ordered my ghoul to jump at some guy who was summoning his mount and interrupted his cast. However gurards of the city (it was Undercity, i presume) aggroed on my poor pet, killed him and tried to own my butt as well, and I couldn't even hit, as they were still friendly for me.

Kommentar von 230662

Is corpse dust required to summon one during the prep period of the arena, or can you summon it without, like warlock pets?

Kommentar von Deldramar

It appears that a Rank 2 may be added in. It makes me wonder what exactly the Rank 2 would do. Stronger Ghoul? Two Ghouls? Different creature maybe?

Kommentar von Laurens

Does not share cooldown with the newly added spell Raise Ally.

Kommentar von heretique

As of patch 3.08, with the addition of Raise ally, casting Raise dead on/near a party/raid member will raise a ghoul.

Kommentar von 308577

Ratstalker FTW!

Kommentar von 58227

and also "Glacier" to the Prefixes. Mine was "Glaciermasher" o.O

Kommentar von 223108

Most of mine are really stupid, like Wormsmasher, Batgobbler, etc. And the one last night was called Pebblestealer. How very evil and intimidating....

"Go forth, minion, and steal me a pebble!", as one of my friends commented.

I tend to raise new ghouls whenever the name is rubbish, since, due to Glyph of Raise Dead, I don't need any reagents to do it anymore ^^

Kommentar von VardPaladin

lol i get batmaw all the time
this is one of the fun thing about DKs
the zombie names u get
some are pretty funny

Kommentar von 49879

I wish you could name your ghoul if you wanted. This would be mine

Skorgiecakes
<Skorge's Pet>

Kommentar von mark8264

This spell will become quite a lot better in patch 3.1 (granted these patch notes don't change)

Raise Dead cooldown reduced from 5 minutes to 3 minutes. The ghoul now only lasts for 1 minute.

This will make the cooldown of this spell 30 seconds for unholy death knights, meaning Death Pact can be used a lot more frequently and with smaller consequences. This will be especially helpful in PVP when getting nuked or when experiencing a lot of burst as a tank. The 30 second cooldown will also mean the penalty of your pet getting killed will be a lot smaller. Hence I think with these changes our pets will be a lot more useful, especially in PVP.

Kommentar von 132266

if u are unholy specc will your the rise dead be like a pet for you,

and the ghoul will you have forever till it dies or you dissmis it.

The ghoul also going to have like a pet a "pet bar" so you can choose his spells if you want to like do charge

Kommentar von BrokenHip

Ratrumbler wins the competition by a longshot.

Kommentar von Hayden

How much HP do they have ?

Kommentar von Derren

when you get a permanent ghoul pet from talents, the ghoul always have the same name or change everytime you use raise dead?

Kommentar von Paramud

Nothing will ever be better than "Beetledrinker."

Kommentar von Fel4

i managed to get "Rootface"...

...

Kommentar von 201822

Eyeface FTW!

PS: These guys look really funny when they swim.

EDIT: Just noticed that you wrote "Slicer" twice. :]

Kommentar von 358692

It's unfortunate that "raider" isn't one of the suffixes... the other day I summoned a ghoul named Tombrobber.

It's close enough, I guess...

Kommentar von 147064

I played my death knight to level 70, then got bored. The one thing I noted though was that I was able to use the stable master's stable in Warsong Hold. So, when I got another free re-spec, I went unholy, which wasn't to entertaining, but I was able to put my ghoul in the stables. It read as a level 99 raptor when saying the level and family, but still showed the ghoul model in the center. I was wondering if this was normal.

Btw: He is still in the stables even though I re-specced frost for entertainment, and yes, it is still a pet with the name he entered with.

with raise dead spell you should be able to use it on beasts and humanoids so when you raise dead on a beast ex:bear it comes out looking like a diseased bear and when you raise dead a humanoid it should look like just one of the normal ghouls.They should make like undead skins for the other beasts too.

Kommentar von MelTorefas

I was particularly fond of my pet "Limbhead."

Kommentar von 120774

I'd love a ghoul named Corpsegrinder, a tribute to George Fisher is sick. I'd also love Spinegrinder, too.

No doubt there's no name on that list I wouldn't love.

Kommentar von 250122

when you spec at 80 go ~~Unholy~~ till Raise Dead becomes a pet then go ~~Blood~~ so you can get Heart Strike

did they take attacks away from the pets?

Marrowchewer...

Nuff' Said.

Kommentar von RubiksCube

I've had a ghoul named "CasketDrinker", now that was kinda weird...

Instantly exploded him to get a new one with a more fitting name.

Kommentar von LeviGratton

I personally think at 80, or possibly 85, DKs should get ghoul upgrades depending on their spec.

Frost DKs get a Skeletal Frost Mage or a Skeletal Construct, that, ontop of Standard Ghoul attacks, can cast frost bolt and maybe Frost Shield/Armor on itself/it's master.

Unholy DKs get a Geist that comes with mild rogue type abilities in the forms of poison and maybe a weak stealth.

Blood DKs get a Ravager that comes with the ability to do Bleeds and maybe a nerfed Sunder Armor type skill.

I think it would help seperate the classes greatly, make having your minion out a regular thing and would add a whole new aspect to the gameplay. Of course, we'd have to control the PvP aspect of it and make sure that the pets aren't too OP'd in PvE.

Kommentar von 351151

Does anyone know if the AI cone disease from the Ghoul pet count as a damage multiplier for DK abilities like Obliterate, Scourge Strike, and the like, which get damage multipliers based on the # of diseases (count) on the DKs target?

Ie. Would Frost Fever, Blood Plague, Crypt Fever, and the Ghoul disease result in +60% or +42.5% damage to Obliterate? Is the disease count for the DK 3 or 4 in this example?

Multiple DKs on a target take benefit from their own diseases only (c.f. tooltip ...for each of your diseases...). Does the pet count as an independant mob wrt this mechanic, or does it count as a disease owned by the DK?

Has anyone tested this?

More then just raw dps, the answer would also mean a lot for DK threat generation if tanking.

Kommentar von 526651

this also works great for a arena team/guild name generator.

Tomb Feeder is the best.

Kommentar von Krusader

Got the infamous "Corpsegrinder" today.
Posted a screenshot.

Kommentar von RyudoTFO

just a question, but is it still possible to let your ghoule use Explode, by targeting him and cast "Corpse explosion" on him ?

Kommentar von 540937

pls, can you post your ghoul stats and char stats?

Kommentar von 422967

To actually comment on the spell itself: what determines the health value from scratch without any glyphs or talents?
Is it a set value or does it scale with your level?

Kommentar von 499453

Has anyone gotten Rotface yet? That could be awkward.

"No, Putricide, I swear I came up with it first."

I got "Cryptkeeper" just earlier. Epic.

And just now: Skullravager. That's just wrong.

There must be some sort of bug on this spell at the moment...
If i use Death Pact or dismiss pet and try resummon it (Raise Dead is of course off cooldown) the game says "spell is not ready yet"

Brainkeeper FTW!

He kept the brains of my enemies with him just in case.
Too bad when he left he forgot to give mine back :(

Kommentar von mercado1234

If you go to Skull Rock outside of Orgrimmar (where the burning blade fanatics are) and you get the demon transformation with your ghoul out you both turn into demons (you get this by killing 5 fanatics, lasts a minute). The demon transformation I'm referring to looks exactly like the Warlock's metamorphosis. BUT... Your ghoul is now a demon almost 2 times larger than a tauren with a growth buff; and you look so teeny tiny next to him. I wondered what would happen if I used Dark Transformation on the ghoul while it's in this huge demon form but sadly, it shrinks into the Dark Transformation form (which looks tiny compared to the demon form).

Kommentar von westomopresto

Here's some insight with Raise Dead and player buffs (Like strength enchants and trinket procs)

The pet will not retain the bonus strength after the buff expires like previously thought.
However, the pet WILL receive future strength buffs just as the player does.

Open up the Pet tab (On the character menu) to see what I mean.
Your pet's Attack Power scales 1:1 with yours. No matter what, including buffs.

So that's a good thing.

Kommentar von 2picnic

This skill has a pretty interesting exploit - If you use a level 90 boost, such as the one included with Warlords of Draenor, while you're currently specced unholy and have a pet ghoul out, you'll keep the permanent pet ghoul no matter which specialization you pick while boosting.

Kommentar von rodalpho

The devs told us exactly how the 7.0 Unholy pet scales with the player's stats at the link below.

http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/20743504316?page=5#100

I'm pasting it here as they typically delete the beta forums after release.

Ghoul: 100% AP->SP, 100% AP, 125% Armor, 40% Health.

Kommentar von zharshoul

Corpserumbler... he likes to rumble corpses... make of that what you will

also HammerRobber(could have sworn I had this one before, maybe it was a hammerthief ) and GraveDrinker

Kommentar von Edoloth

I'd love to see a few changes to this ability, like different summonable undead or something. Maybe each spec has a different undead pet, or a system similar to warlock demons where you have a variety of demons to choose from. Even better, a control undead revamp that would allow you to enslave an undead permanently, similar to hunter pet taming. This would add some cool flavor to the DK class, especially for unholy.

I also completely understand why Blizzard would not implement this: this system would create another pet class. Mages, shamans, warlocks, dks, and obviously hunters all have access to pets, either as "permanent" summons (water elemental for mages) or as cooldowns (greater earth elemental for shammys).

Still, I think having a Reaper wielding, badass pet like Lurid would be awesome.
