Socketed Spells have +3% to Critical Strike Chance

For Redemption Sentries the mod must say socketed Spells, right? Even though their main attack is considered an attack?

Nope. Redemption Sentries primarily use attacks:

The mod you're referring to increases the crit chance for damaging spells. Raise Spectre on its own is not a damaging spell, so that portion is discarded.

They only cast one spell, which is the crystal they spawn that explodes into multiple projectiles in a cone.

An example of an effective RS item (from Delirium):



Benefits:
- free +1 chain
- 20% more attack damage for all their attack abilities and basic ranged attacks

I thought minions didn't have a spell/attack damage distinction, which is why minion specific talants/gems don't specify that it increases spells and/or attacks

They do. For example, spell echo won't affect redemption sentries' basic attacks or projectile abilities. For slave drivers, however, spell echo works like a charm.

Gems are one thing, in-depth customization is another.

No the minion boost dont specify spell or attack simply because doing so would make for way too specific modifiers.
