Verata's Aura Question - Guild Wars Forums

Does Verata's Aura bind opponents minions or only the masterless ones like Verata's Gaze? It sounds like all but, if someone could verify that would be great.

Verata's Aura [15,1,30] Sacrifice 33% max health. All hostile animated undead in the area become bound to you. Verata's Aura ends after 120-264 seconds. When Verata's Aura ends, you lose your bond with any undead bound to you.

It binds all minions to you, not just masterless ones. It can be an excellent skill in some areas PvE, such as Gates of Kryta or D'Alessio Seaboard(if only it were available at these points in the game), and decent if you know you're going to be running against a minion build in PvP, or playing with a couple minionators, to bind their minions back to you if the people that raised the minions die. Overall, not a great skill, but one that does have some specific uses.

Thank you.
It looks like a one slot cure for "Minionators".

Situational but basicly shuts down a minion build with one skill.

I would have expected it to only effect masterless for balance purposes.
