Shadow Mages have fairly weak specializations compared to some of the other minions in Diablo 4. However, if you're not, or if you’re using a Shadow build that incorporates Shadowblight, these minions are absolutely essential.

If you’re using certain effects from the Necromancer Codex of Power or spells that already deal a good amount of Shadow damage, such as Decompose or Corpse Explosion, you’ll probably want to go with Bone or Cold Mages instead. The usefulness of these minions largely depends on your build. Just as their name suggests, Shadow Mages are ranged minions that inflict Shadow damage with all their attacks.

This upgrade is arguably better than the first one, but it’s still pretty bad since it requires the Necromancer to have a lot of Thorns to begin with. The second specialization allows Defenders to make better use of Thorns by increasing the percentage of inherited Thorns from 30% to 40%. That's because unless a minion has a taunting ability, most enemies will focus their attacks on the Necromancer instead. This increases their survivability even more but, once again, it doesn’t do much for the Necromancer. The default specialization allows Defenders to completely shrug off one attack every 6 seconds. The bad news is that they don’t deal a lot of damage and their specializations are some of the worst out there. Instead, they get a shield and 15% increased health, which allows them to stick around for longer than other types of skeletal minions. Despite what their name might suggest, these minions don’t actually defend the Necromancer. While not necessarily terrible overall, Defenders are pretty bad at their job.
