In some ways, Penetrating Shot looks way scarier without the skulls
Penetrating shot has very clear skulls on the icon, and skeletons are another no-go for Diablo’s China release. These are instead replaced with creepy masks or discolored faces, but the outcome is unsettling in and of itself.
Wandering Death is looking a lot less ethereal these days
Wandering Death is a spiritual being made of damned souls and more bones. The solution to a being made entirely of bones, apparently, is to turn it into… solid stone? This reworked version of Wandering Death is by far the most interesting change Blizzard has made for this regional edit.
