Skeleton Veterans are weak minions that make up the group summoned by deathmages to attack you. They'll often die before they can get close, but as long as you stay moving they can never hurt you.

This enemy is particularly valuable to Knights, as it can drop the T4 Golden Shield which significantly helps out with leveling and skips several tiers of shield.
