Q:

It seems I’ve been misunderstanding a part of the game, but I’m not sure. So, I’m asking those who may know more about how this part of the game works.

Basically, does boosting any of my stats in any way change the stats of the pets I summon? Not just ranger pets, but necro minions and engineer turrets, too.

delicate, brick-like subtlety.

A:

It varies.

Ranger pets are 100% separate from your own stats. They do get their own stats (each pet family has different base stats) which can be raised by various traits as well as the Beastmaster trait line, however.

Mesmer illusions and phantasms are 100% based on your own stats.

Engineer turrets are mostly separate from your own stats, except for condition damage, for some reason.

Not completely sure about Necro minions or Spirit weapons, but I believe they’re separate.

Thanks. That’s not the answer I’d hoped to hear, but I guess it explains where I got confused.
