Current Minion Survivability Problems... Video of the Problem
"
There u go, all uber bosses without any minions dying. "Tested on your stream" doesn´t mean anything as you are not as good at minions as u might think. That guy is though.
I really don't are who he is.
https://pobb.in/8iZBAJKHxfkZ - nice build. How much did it cost you ? 500+ divine orbs ?
let's whip up that stream and get to cracking !
ps.. a 500+ divine build is your big show stopper ?

The issue with permanent minions is that now they require a lot of investment to keep them alive. To have a proper permanent minions build is more expensive then having a proper Tornado Shot build. And clear speed will suck anyway, because minions.
The solutions to keep minions alive are there, but they have a very high opportunity cost - many skill points that don't go in your character's survivability or minion damage, gear and support gems. On paper, you can have almost immortal minions (90% pdr / 90% ele resists / high recovery), but to have them deal damage as well, you need very expensive gear.
- You can't make permanent minions with any amount of talent tree points and gear. Its been tested and on my stream and video for Uber fights and 20+ Sim is just a laughable when doing it with minions.
- Zombies are broken
- The talent tree needs to keep minions alive
You tested what exactly? Permanent minions with 90% physical dmg reduction, 90% elemental resists, 75%/75% block, 5%+ life regen per second, supported by Minion Life, Meat Shield and Anomalous Feeding Frenzy? And they were still dying?

-- you can watch the video i made. I used every node in the game for my minions to stay alive. Plus bone rings

Stream it and show us the survivability of Zombies and minions.
- 500+ divine build and this shows us everything i guess !!
Yes, that's what I said: permanent minions are expensive and slow.
Why bother playing them?

This is what I played this league:

I stopped playing permanent minions quite a few leagues ago. They were slow before, but then they became top tier expensive also.

Ps.. What clown are you going to throw at me next ?
That's not me, but I do recommend checking that PoB, because it has good information how to have your zombies survive ubers (Dread March, Renewal, Indomitable Army, Fortress Covenant, Quickening Covenant, auras, etc).
