Minion Gems With Cast on Crit - Help

I am doing a bit of theory crafting for a build and came upon a question I cannot find the answer too.

If you have 4x minion gems socketed into gloves corrupted with cast on crit; if one of those minion's crits will the rest of the minion gems be cast?

Thanks :)

no u have to use an attack to cast the linked spells on crit.

Besides u can't link 4 gems to coc in a 4l glove anyways since there are only 4 sockets
3.26 when?

You can get cast on crit as a corrupted item modifier, that was my thought.

But your first point answered my question; thank you.

Would be a cool unique item for socketed gems to be cast on minion crit :)
You may want to try that bow that casts minion spells in it on some condition. Someone here will probably remember what it was called.

well cast when dmg taken can summon minions so... cast on crit should to.

It should work with SRS no problem. Not sure if zombie, spectre, skeleton, or golem crits would trigger it though.
Remember when I won a screenshot contest and made everyone butt-hurt? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

The question was whether a critting minion will cast other (minion) skills in a setup like:
Zombie-CoC-SRS-Spectre.
Bird lover of Wraeclast
Las estrellas te iluminan - Hoy te sirven de guía
Te sientes tan fuerte que piensas - que nadie te puede tocar
Based on what we've had explained to us by the developers, each minion will attempt to cast the others and fail.

This is because skill created entities that are not your character will inherit each Support gem they're linked to one by one rather than as a whole; a Zombie for example would inherit the Cast on Critical Strike gem, but then check its own gems for supported Spells and it will find none because Minions don't and can't have gems socketed in them (don't ask me about Animated Guardian, that stuff confuses me).

This is also why Curse on Hit never works with totems, mines, traps, or minions either.

From the wiki:

"
Items containing skill gems cannot be animated, so the Guardian cannot use trigger gems.
