Default Do minions use skills?

And how do they interact with paragon/warrior shouts? Asked because some shout bonuses trigger when using attack skills. Thx!

AoE says allies on their next attack skill. Do minions use attack skills?

No. Minions simply attack. They have no skills.

Fall back also affects them iirc, makes a nice skill in ab when partying with an MM... gives minions speed boost, and a nice heal.

Yeah, any skill that affects allies is cool. I also use those Vanguard wards.

The Ursan shout/Roar also affects them.

As much i hate that skill it was still fun With ESoH OoU and UR just to see the damage they made.

Also The wolf blessing is pretty nice for minions, IAS
