Minions in 0.2: what a bad experience it is
Hey, i lvl my witch with snipers and wear the unique body armour with +100 spirit so that net me 6 snipers. I spam flame wall and the command skill from snipers. The thing is .. their autohits doint so fricking low dmg, their life is also very, verrry low so they constantly die. Revive dont take too long thanks to passive tree minions wheels etc. I played soooo much minions in poe1 and i call my self a experienced player with minions, arpg, poe .. choose one. I played Arsonists and SRS on early access release and had a blast and hit t16 maps and everything. But this now ? Its bad, its not fun and its very, very weak and SRS are now a pain to spawn and are also weak. I know that storm mages do good dmg in endgame, but i am in Act 3 and Jamanra Boss and overland things are actually not a good exyperience. It also feels bad to just spam poison cloud from my snipers... they are just good enough to spam cloud, die and repeat. I played a Lightning Spear Ama and ED + Contagion Lich this league and it was smooth sailing. But with my sniper/minions build i die to shit because i getting instantly swarmed because my snipers couldnt kill white mobs fast enough (probably because animation of cloud from snipers are so fricking long holy shit) Idk .. i am really disappointed about minions in general and my leveling experience now in 0.2 is really bad to put it mildly.
