Question: Minion Replacement After 10 - Guild Wars Forums

Canadian Bacon · Jun 21, 2006, 02:02 PM // 14:02

I know that your 11th minion will replace a previously existing minion, but does it replace the oldest one, or the one with the lowest health?

I would think it would be your oldest, but when I'm making minions, I make my flesh golem first then fill with others, when I go over the max, it seems my golem is still around so the oldest of that kind of minion or it replaces your oldest bone horror

I've been trying to figure out the same thing. It seems to me that my minion with the lowest health is the one being replaced. But its not always the minion of the same kind.

Its your minion with the lowest health (doesn't matter the KIND - a Fiend can replace a horror, or anything like that).

This is good to know. I was concerned it was either random or the closest one would be replaced. I'm glad to hear you can keep them somewhat fresh without having to kill one off before raising another.

The Jury's still out on this one as a couple of people have said to me that they've noticed it's not always the lowest health one getting replaced all the time, cant say I've really taken a lot of notice of this as generallly I'll create a new minion as soon as the opportunity arises - unless it's going to cause a "problem" of course.

The "jury" can go hang out with the people that still insist Knight's Armor is localized to the peice of armor, and the people that insist that Monk spells make Minions die faster in my book.

Its fairly proven that its the lowest health minion (I've played MM myself).

Its the Minion with the lowest health - and I was testing the monk spells, healing breeze, after its done will make there health go down FASTER than not using it, and When I use Verata's Sacrafice, it seems only a couple minions get the boost. Also can anyone get a me a good MM build (My MM is on my non factions account)

The health drops faster constantly. The minion seems to die faster after being healed with Healing breeze because it's degeneration increases during the duration of Healing breeze, so, when the healing stops the minion actually is dieing faster then he was when he was first cast on, but monk spells have absolutely nothing to do with it *inhale*. Run on sentences are fun

I looked at Vereata's Sac on Wiki a few hours ago, it said that it is bugged so that only your oldest 3 minions will be affected.

Make a Horror than a fiend, than spam minions till you have 10 total and make another fiend and find your answer.

It replaces the one with the lowest health; the order that you make them in, the kind of minion that you make, or the level of the minion doesn't matter.
