I had my necro-remake ran to Droknar's so I could pick up my final armor and Animate Bone Minions skill. I swear, all I get in parties now is "Holy crap that's an amazing army" and "wow, so many of them!!!".

Top it off with the fact that I am an assistant healer and stick Blood Ritual on the monk when needed, and I become a loved member of the party. I dont even know why I bring blood ritual because once the minion machine gets going, it's pretty much a trainwreck the whole way through any given mission lol.

It can be a double edged sword as one group found out. They had 20+ minions raised with death nova. We found and killed the necro at range.

. At the same time, we've had smaller numbers of minions run into our group while we've been taking on the real targets, only to suddenly find ourselves dead because of balthazars and death nova on the minions.

Two words. Dark bond. Of course, that's the main reason I don't care for premade minion masters in my, say, krytan arena party.
