. Monsters converted using Conversion Trap do not count as minions and are not effected by minion passives.

Minions have their own damage and their actions are treated completely separate from the summoner's. Zombies and Skeletons do physical damage, Spectres and Dominated do whatever damage they did before they died. Minion damage is affected by Minion Damage passives, support gems linked to the minion skill gem, Auras and Necromantic Aegis. Of particular note, support gems will support the attacks and spells of the minion if the skill is relevant.

Neither passive skills nor stats from your other equipment affect minions unless they specifically say "Minions _____".

Life Flasks with the "of Animation" suffix will heal minions life by 40-60% of the flasks recovery. This effect works even when you have full life or Chaos Inoculation.

When a minion kills an enemy you are partially rewarded with the kill. This means:

  • You gain Flask Charges
  • Your IIQ and IIR is added to the minion's support gems values to calculate drops.

Totems, Traps and Remote Mines are not counted as minions, they are Remote Skills.

Skill Gems

Spectre choices

As players progress through the game, there are several mobs that present interesting choices to supplement summoner and hybrid-summon builds alike. Even for a non-summoner build, a single curse-casting spectre whose AI helps them stay away can be quite useful. In practice, it's not that easy to keep a sole spectre alive without having other bodies around to shield it - this means parties and hybrid/full-summon builds. NB: Spectres keep their original monster-level, so you can't take a normal mob into Merciless and expect it to survive 1-hit.

The following short-list are spectres that are compatible with parties in general since they are both useful and have a relatively low graphics load for others' sakes:

  • Enduring Cry Bears, various (Act 2)
  • Chaos DoT Bears, Waterfall Caves 1 (Act 2)
  • Frenzy-inducing Gorillas, Old Fields.
  • Curse-specialists

Here is the full-list of potentially useful ones sorted by their abilities + location.
