See also: Sacred 2:Combat Art Modifications

Bronze

Silver

Commander - Summons another additional soldier. (+1)
Spectral Shield - Equip summoned soldier with greatly enhanced shields. (???)

Gold

Balm - Increase life regeneration of the spectral soldiers. (50% increase)
Elite Equipment - Upgrades the spectral soldiers' armor. (7.5% + 5.5% per CA level (?))

Astral Lord Focus Reduces "Regeneration Penalty from Buffs" - Grants modification points to Astral Lord Aspect - Increases "Highest Spell level without Penalty"
Stamina Reduces "Regeneration Penalty from Buffs"
Concentration Reduces "Regeneration Penalty from Buffs"

Use Nether Allegiance along with Reflective Emanation and/or Rousing Command (both have mods to affect the whole party), as well as Augmenting Guidon.
Recommended mods: Sharp Blades, Spectral Sheild, Elite Equipment. The more skelletons there are, the more they get in eachothers way and in your way. It may be better to have 2 skelletons that are spending more time hitting their targets with reinforced equipment and better armor than 4 skelletons that are either getting in eachother's way or dead because they don't have much defense.
If you use this buff, it is recommended to keep the level fairly high (without going over CA level without penalty) to ensure the skelletons can kill at a decent speed.

Pros

Cons

Roams around freely, usually not attacking the same unit you do
Too many skelletons can get in eachothers way, especially if you are using rallied souls at the same time.
Requires a high level for decent kill speed from skelletons.
Attracts unnecessary attention from other enemy units
Any enemy AoE or Reflect spell that causes damage to skeletons will also damage you even if invisible (using Shadow Veil)

No modifications, no skills, naked, all stats between 25 and 35 (i.e. a nearly-new character).
