[1.5.9] Necromancer - Eternal Bone Giant doesn't reassemble

[zanth77]

The Assemble talent allows necromancers to summon an Eternal Bone Giant (I had effective talent level of 5.2).

When inspecting the pet, it has reassemble at level 5 which should allow for 1 resurrection. In watching old necro vids on youtube, I can see the giant did indeed resurrect once.

However, it's no longer working. I've tried undead explosion, sacrifice, and simply letting the giant die to the enemy. He never came back to life even once.

My guess is that the ability was removed from enemy mobs after players got frustrated trying to kill them. However, it's still listed as a talent of necro summons, and given the low survivability of many necro pets, seems quite useful. In fact, it was the main reason I decided to skill up in the Assemble talent. Once I noticed it wasn't working as designed, I cried a little, then removed the class points.
