does "increase cold dmg" affect minions with hatred aura?
I am curious about the "increase cold dmg 12%" effect in the passive tree. When I turn on the hatred aura, will my minions gain bonus dmg? (I have bonechill + hypothermia equipped as well). Thanks for help!

The increased cold damage doesn't enhance hatred, both hatred and the node will enhance your damage.

Yes, any ally(player and/or minion) who is currently being affected by your aura will receive the increase cold dmg bonus. They just need within your aura's radius while attacking the enemies for the effect to take place.

What Sajah says is correct. If you want your aura to grant your minions more damage you would have to go for "increased effect" aura nodes to make the aura itself more potent.

Bonechill and hypothermia will boost minion damage as long as they are linked to appropriate skills. Hypothermia to the minion and bonechill to anything that chills.

That wasn't at all what he asked.
