it work only and only for melees with weapon minions.

whut? Look lol , there are TWO GEMS . One is an active strike and it is called VIGILANT STRIKE, this one needs a weapon. There is also a support gem called FORTIFY , same as the name of the buff.This support gem called FORTIFY , works with minions as it does not need a melee weapon , just a melee HIT which is basically the same thing but it includes more stuff like facebreaker , minions etc etc

until GGG updates it and requires specifically a weapon :)

Yeah because they totally did not consider minions.

*looks at 3 golem minion gems 5 inches above fortify*

Hmmm, yeah, hmmm.

Peace,

-Boem-

my bad, the support gem work diferent xD

stats shows that it works? gonna check it

It works with zombies.


It does not work with golems, atleast the flame golem. (May be because he doesn't have a melee type attack)

It doesnt work on fire golem, everything it does is a cast, no attacks.

edit - misread Vandalain's post

Title says it all. Will my zombies / golems be able to benefit from fortify support gem ? Or is it just a summoner's dream ?

I'm 99% sure that fortfiy works with zombies, but just letting you know for future reference: Sometimes things show up on the tooltip even if they don't work.

For example, if you link flame totem to a curse on hit the tooltip for flame totem has "Applies Linked Curses on Hit" but it doesn't actuallly work.

yes, zombies uses fortify like a charm, now I drop Increased Minion Life so I get melee buff and physical reduction on fortify which compensates lower HP which is really useful. also fortify effect looks amazing good
