}}Bone Warriors are the [[Act II]] version of the [[Skeleton]]s seen throughout Act One. As of March 2010, they are the only type of skeleton seen in Act 2 screenshots or gameplay movies, though it is assumed that other types of skeletons, perhaps more powerful versions of the [[Skeletal Shieldman|shieldmen]] or [[Skeletal Executioner|executioners]] are found later in Act II.
[[File:Mon-bone-warrior4.jpg|left]]In behavior the Bone Warriors act like other basic melee enemies. They move slowly and attack seldom, and are pretty much just cannon fodder of the early Act 2 tombs. Thus far, in screenshots and during the [[Blizzcon 2009]] demo, they have usually spawned with [[Frozen Mage]]s and served as interference for those ranged attacking casters. The basic Act I [[skeleton]]s do much the same thing, but usually they protect [[Skeletal Archer]]s or [[Skeletal Summoner|summoners]]. It may thus be the case that those higher level types of skeletons are not found in Act 2, or if so they only spawn with some bone warrior type of [[Skeletal Shieldman]] for their foot soldier.
Bone Warriors always spawn in packs of at least 5 or 6 individuals. Larger mobs of up to a dozen have been seen, but it's not clear if these are supersized mobs, or are just two packs spawning in the same location.
