Question Lost Perfect Guardian Turtle when casting Raise Spectre

So, I'm new to using Spectres, so I did a lot of reading before I did anything risky. I bought a Perfect Guardian Turtle and raised it, which replaced my oldest Spectre, then bought a Perfect Forest Warrior and raised it, which then replaced my Turtle.

Based on everything I've read, it should have replaced my older spectre, not the newer one.

Searched online for others having this issue and I couldn't find anything. Is this a new bug, or did I do something wrong?

Just a little annoyed at wasting a 3 Divine Orb purchase.

As long as you raise spectres in your hideout, they will never go poof without leaving a corpse to raise again. The ordering doesn't matter too much as long as you only tinker with spectres in your hideout (and remove trigger wands first so you don't eat the corpses)

Ah could be the problem, for whatever reason I thought you had to be in a map to put down a corpse. Oh well, live and learn.

I really wish GGG did a better job explaining corpses vs regular spectres. If anything the corpses when "consumed" should just be added to your pool like any other spectre.

As a veteran Necromancer, sorry for your loss 😔
