+[1 - 2] to Skeleton Mage
Your maximum number of Skeleton Mages is increased by 1 and they are upgraded to Arch-Mages. Arch-Mages teleport to safety when attacked and their attacks occasionally shatter on impact, dealing [80 - 90]%[x] increased damage to the enemy and up to 3 additional targets.

Legends say that the Hand of Naz was not made, but cursed into being. Woe to the living who unearth it, for the price is the same regardless of form. The cavity where a gem once lay is empty.

      The Hand of Naz - Unique Gloves

    3. 2.3Source: Blizzard Entertainment

      Fixed an issue where new Skeletal Mages would die while wearing The Hand of Naz if your Skeletal Warriors or Golem were not sacrificed.

    4. 2.3Source: Blizzard Entertainment

      Fixed an issue where the extra mages from The Hand of Naz would sometimes die and Arch Mages would revert to normal mages when entering a town. (Considering the town guards no longer have a bone to pick with them, the Sekeletal Arch Mages can enter as themselves.)
