How to best keep your minions alive.. - Guild Wars Forums

Chicago Sidster · Aug 29, 2005, 05:29 PM // 17:29

I have a Mo/N20 Build and have finally attained the Venta's Sacrifice Skill. I still however notice that my minions are still dying off. What other skills should I use to keep them alive?

I remember seeing a N/MO20 that had over 30 to 40 minions all marching down the hill like a big army. I want that..

Heal area can work pretty good...

I'm pretty sure heal party doesn't work on minions nor pets.

Verata's Sacrifice - pure and simple.

I think its heal area. after fighting they always come back to you, so it works to a point.

use blood of the master tis blood skill but heals like heal area but if ure monk stick with heal area. the necro army u saw was probably a sacrificer build which had monx designated for healing "the army" And is a formidable force in Hoh if performed correctly

ugh *hits head on desk* ok... here is your problem you are a monk! you have to be a necro primary and use a superrior deathmagic rune so your minnions are higher lvl and can be viable.

i worry about all the people who answered before me..

Yeah, I'd go with Draken said.
A N/Mo is clearly better than a Mo/N at making and maintaining minions
Not only can you use a superior death, but soul reaping is actually helpful here.
