Spirit Weapon idea
I haven’t played with them much, but whenever I do I notice they are pretty tough on their own. Yes, they have health bars, but they last longer than most mesmer clones and some necro minions. Plus, you can just command them into oblivion anytime, so their health is really just a buffer so you can time your command. They were never meant to be a long-term 2nd auto attack.
I think they are alright as they are. Just stagger them with recharges and you’ll always have one out.
