Aura typically specify "allies" - in which case, yes, the Aura would indeed benefit your minions.
I'd rather know the name of the Aura & any supports it might have before speaking too definitively, though. Last edited by Sarno#0493 on Jul 23, 2025, 4:40:01 PM

Oh, sorry - I’d meant to say uniques just because I’d wondered when reading your post if perhaps you were asking because one had spawned with e.g. Ichimonji and you’d not noticed, but their Auras hadn’t appeared to be doing anything. Yeah; both of those should work fine for your minions barring any range issues / anti-synergistic uniques. Mercs aren’t Party members, but they are Allies.
Mercs Auras would also help the minions of any other people you play with, any non-hostile totems, etc. It’s not one of the more restrictive words in Path of Exile; if you’re wondering whether something counts as an Ally, it probably does. Entitles on the same ‘side’ generally do. |
