Necro pets - Guild Wars Forums

Does anyone know how long each of the necro pets lasts if you keep them healed? Is there a set number of seconds or minutes that they just die regardless of their health?

Thanks

They'll stay up indefinitely if you can keep them healed.

Minions don't have a set expiration, but they do suffer a natural health degeneration, which seems to increase in degen rate the longer it remains alive.

So while it's possible to keep a minion alive through heals, you'll eventually reach a point were doing so becomes uneconomic.

They definitely started degenerating faster as they aged. I had a monk henchman along that kept healing them between fights in PvE and had no energy for us when we needed some healing in the next fight. I just let them die off after that and created new ones as necessary.

if i remember right, the more minions you have, the faster they degen.
