Guild Wars 2

The critical hit chance as well as the critical hit damage appears to be that of the minion’s, while the damage is linked to the necromancer’s power.

I would suggest making it so the critical hit chance is that of the necromancer and the critical damage also that of the necro.

Minion’s power damage isn’t linked to necro’s stats.

Minions are independent of character stat’s. This allows them to do consistent dps whether the player uses a power build, condi build, or anything else.

If your minions are not doing enough damage, don’t use them. That may sound harsh but minions draw aggro in PvE reducing your incoming damage so they cannot out-dps all other Necromancer builds.

This is actually false. Minions inherit only three stats directly from the Necromancer: Condition Damage, Condition Duration, and Boon Duration. This is why Lich was so good for Condition-based builds in PvE for a while; Jagged Horrors would apply bleeds that were directly influenced by your stats.

Ah, I forgot about that. Aside from Jagged Horrors and Death Nova, I cannot think of much else that uses conditions and I never build for boons anymore.

Minions inheriting player stats would be nice tho

I’ve always thought it would be rad if Anet had test servers where they could test stuff like this

I do not mean to change all minion stats. only the ones linked to the Bone minion’s explosion sub-skill.
