It's impossible to hae more than 10 minions.
But skills like Blood of the master will affect all minions, not only yours.

A resizeable box with 10 icon slots and 10 health bars would be enough.

i would like it just to cast death nova on them

howabout little minion heads in boxes with an increasing amount of black kind of like adrenaline.

This would be enormously helpful. Something similar for Rit and even Ranger spirits wouldn't hurt, too.

Or maybe, when you click on that little icon that displays your minion count, it expands into a larger window (thats resize-able in the interface) that looks like Shadow's idea so then people won't have to worroy about resizing that window every time. (Like the party window, I'd probobly get those confused too.)

I wonder if it would be possible to code yourself an applet for guildwars that could read outgoing information related to minions and arrange them in some useful way in a window.

I know Anet frowns on created applets for guildwars, but if it never gets created in game, what other choice is there really?

woudnt it be cool though?

Vandal2k6 · Mar 02, 2007, 03:01 PM // 15:01

Would deffo love this. Be easier to use Death Nova too, instead of just spamming it.

Anything that makes managing minions less awkward and chaotic will make me happy!

Priest Of Sin · Mar 02, 2007, 04:55 PM // 16:55

This is an AWESOMELY AWESOME idea. Hell, it should be stickied... or something like that, so Anet will see it eventually, even though their schedule pretty much restricts what work their programmers can do (expansion every half a year Oo).

PS: the window in Fender's post would be PERFECT. I don't need to see my allies minions, just my own. They're the only ones I care about

Definatly a good idea, u would have to have a different setup for showing minions as 10 can swamp the current party window and an option to turn the minion bar off, and still have the party bar showing.

DeXyre · Mar 26, 2007, 09:03 PM // 21:03

I'd rather see the separate party-like interface than the icons though...
Easier to keep track of health of all your minions at once...

Praetor · Mar 26, 2007, 09:09 PM // 21:09

Target nearest/next minion key bind would be acceptable, if a.net is too lazy to make a new minion party list.

I particularly like the simplicity (re: lack of additional screen clutter) that the OP's proposed feature would add.

Im surprised this thread hasnt got a 5 star rating yet. Its one of the few threads ive read where everyone likes the idea.

MithranArkanere · Mar 28, 2007, 03:02 PM // 15:02

This has a 5 star rank, at least is what I see...

It is one of those 'must'.

/signed aswell. I actualy came here to ask if there was such an option, but I guess there isn't yet. ^_^;

if you can see you pets in your party menu why not a minions in allies or minion section

My necro can never seem to target the right minion in the middle of an AB. "Wait a sec, is that even MY minion?"

Interface please
