Guild Wars 2

I’ve finally hit 400 tailoring, which means I’m finally starting to think about my gear.
Seeing as I’m a minion master (sort of; we all know minions rarely do waht they should, but that’s another issue) I was considering gearing up with Runes of the Pack IF minions are affected by the (4) effect.

Does anyone know if they are? Or, better yet, could a dev drop in and give me a definitive answer?

Yes minions are allies as far as the game is concerned.

but…

BUGS (I know, shocking)

“Affects allies” may exclude minions in some cases.

I thought of doing the same, but I won’t be until the minion bugs and the “Affects allies” bug are fixed. Also until the minions get a balance pass because right now the Bone Fiend and Shadow Fiend particularly are underperforming. A single target blind does not a good utility skill make. The Bone Fiend active skill seems like it’s still balanced around having two of them. Except we only get one now. So we need to get two again or the cooldown needs lowered. But yeah, a full minion skillbar is a distant dream for me.
