Just pointing out a couple of issues.
1st problem
Sigils with +power, +precision, +healing, +condition damage on kills proccing when killing necro minions. Is this intended? maybe 1 stack per minion might be fine but 5 stacks per minion is a little excessive.
fight one minion master and get 25 stacks of power and the necro is not even down yet.

2nd problem
Warrior rezzing after using vengeance and killing necro pets. Not sure what pet probably golem or wurm. This does not seem like it is intended.

minion ai maybe could use a little tweaking people been saying…but from what I see as long as they move around and attack stuff its fine in pvp.

I find minion masters decently strong 1v1 (not against moa mesmers) but not so much in larger team fights 3v3+.

Don’t use minion master build in tpvp – you harm your team more than you help them…

Bad AI, all utility slots are taken, if enemies attack you from a different hight minions are useless, since you cannot summon them directly on them, like mesmers do, why choose something as bad as mm?

notice how i pointed out minion masters are not so strong in team fights. I was just stating bugs of mm so there will be a slight possibility of it getting fixed.

@Lukin Just because a build is not used by many people does not not mean it is bad. I’ve won lot of free tournies, using the build. It does well against certain people and builds. It may not shine in big team fights as other necro builds (wells, condi epidemic) but there are also 1v1s, 2v2s, 1v2s situations, etc. that happen in a tourny, which minion builds r decent 4. Its not 5v5 everywhere all day in tournaments.

Have not tried the build in paids yet, still going with the standard in paids cuz teammates might rage seeing all those minions.

why choose a build this bad? Its fun to try new builds then just the standard build most necros use.
and also…
Sees a minion master, thinks “haha this should be ez fight, i can take him, that build so bad”, ends up dying with minion master at full health (exaggerated slightly, happened many times though killing some1 with >90% health 1v1, in tournaments and hot join duels).

im always up for duels if you wanna test out 1v1 against the minion masterrrrr

I look at tournaments like team fights – other build necromancers can help a lot from their utilities, remove conditions, aoe blinds, change conditions into buffs, etc. Even if it is a 1×1 situation, a minion master necromancer is not a tank, nor he is a burster, so even if you can kill someone 1×1 (it is possible with almost any build of any charachter) it will not be fast, so he might call for backup, or if he is a tank, he will just stand there.

I rarely duel people, besides I probably couldn’t keep myself from creating a mesmer, moaing you from stealth and watch all your mm dissapear : )
