Minions/Spectres Being STUPID
Why is it that the minions and spectres/skeletons are so STUPID!!!!!STUPID!!!!!STUPID!!!!!STUPID!!!!!
THEY WILL NOT DO SHIT, you have to attack someone first and they only attack that guy and then move on to someone that is right next to them, not you. They do not defend you properly, nor do they attack what you want. They stand around idle most of the time and the AI for them is beyond stupid. FOR THE CREATORS Actually try to make a minion/spectre based class (necromancer d2 version) They are just flat out fucking dumb. CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE THEM "Smarter"? They need to be able to go out of their way and attack, instead if you do not attack anyone, they often do the same and you just get hit while they go attack another monster 10 feet away from you and that does no good when you get your ass beat to death. Raising "helpers" almost does nothing, they barely grab aggro, they barely do any damage, they barely even help, they are almost useless, almost. Like 1% from useless. PLEASE TELL ME IM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT FUCKING HATES THE WAY THEY ARE MADE Last bumped on Jan 30, 2018, 7:18:52 PM

You can give feedback more constructively.
Hold shift and swing in the direction you want them to attack, and they will attack everything in that general direction. Beyond that, yes, their AI is poor. |

Arc is also a good skill for getting them to target stuff without having to think too hard about it.
Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:

skeletons will attack automatically regardless of you attacking or not..they don't follow you however like zombies/specters.

" My highest level character is a dominating blow witch. I also have a ranged character that I level with a summoner - the zombies and skeletons make a great meatshield, and arc is a good way to get zombies into the fray. Crevox's suggestion also works well. What I don't understand is, though, why are you just standing there when your spectres are attacking? Shouldn't you be using a support skill to help out? Can't you use that skill to tell them where to go? Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:

" Minionmancer here... Learn your AI. Then make most efficient use of it. Get spell totem, socket an AE ability. Place it into the middle of the room. Your minions will treat that stuff like its you. Clears a path into the room, place another (first one will be dead) Destroy... Raise any lost zombies... Skeletons are fodder, use them as such. Need one to guard that far door? Summon 2 there. Need a boatload with your zombies? spam summon..then throw your spells around like a mad hatter at a baseball hat store... LEARN.YOUR.AI.AND.HOW.IT.WORKS!!! |

My first character ever in closed and open beta is a full summoner. They are very viable but require some work. They also happen to be one of the best builds for magic finding.
