Question about minions + blood and sand / flesh and stone

Greetings

These skill gems are missing information and i would appreciate if someone could replie to me about this.

blood and sand

"Mele skills deal 14% more damage"

I know these 2 gems arnt working with generosity support but is the damage increase from ALL sources ?

Would my skel minions benefit from the increase area dmg? Or is it attacks coming only from my chatacter ?

Same about Flesh and stone are maimed enemies receiving 15% phys dmg from my minion as well or only me.

Am comfused

If they do benefit, the gem description is missing "from all sources" in its info.

Tyvm in advance and merry chrismas to everyone reading this!

In short, the skills does different things.

blood and sand enhances the user (and not minion damage either).

Flesh and Stone on the other hand works more like a Blasphemy supported Curse would, because it causes enemies near you to be debuffed. Note, however, that neither of the skills provide any buff directly to allies, which is why Generosity doesn't help.

TL;DR: Flesh and Stone helps your minions if they hit enemies that are near you. Blood and Sand only helps your damage. Only use Flesh and Stone when you are near both your minion and the enemy it is attacking.
