Skeleton
ADVERTISEMENT
From Diablo Wiki
Skeletons are Undead.
The risen, animated bones of dead adventurers, skeletons fight tenaciously with a variety of melee weapons. Since they are just bones, they are highly resistant to various elemental attacks. They do not deal a great deal of damage or move very quickly, but take a lot of punishment before dying and can swarm the unwary adventurer.
- All values are listed by difficulty level: Normal / Nightmare / Hell.

Defenses
No life or mana can be drained from skeletons in v1.11.
- Regen Rate tells what % of a monster's hit points are recovered per second. Standard is 1.2/sec.
- Blocking tells what % of successful, blockable attacks will not damage the monster. Monsters need not carry a shield to block.
- Drain Effectiveness tells what % of a character's mana and life steal apply to that monster. 100 is all, 0 is none.
- Chill Effectiveness tells what % of a character's cold length applies to the monster. 100 is all, 0 is no freeze/chill at all.
