Minions and their stat sheet

[Johnsen]

So i am trying to understand.. ive taken all the necrotic damage nodes etc in both skills and passives.. yet im trying to figure out when a item is viable to use

According to the statsheet i do 1175% necrotic damage on minions, but exactly how much damage is that? am i missing something ?? like how much is 140% minion crit ?

atm it seems to me the only viable pet builds are pure physical damage and pure minion damage items

Only way i see how to gauge your actual minion dps is to use the base minion damage showed here for example: https://www.lastepochtools.com/minions/skeleton_mage (scroll down to bottom to see base mage damage)

Multiply it will all your minion mods and counter check it with the Arena target dummy to be sure.

Keep in mind. High level enemies have dynamic damage reduction the higher the level so thats one more roadblock in guessing how your actual dps will be.

i'd really like it if the minion page actually told you what the damage total of each minion was atm so we could have an easier time of it

yeah this they can lift some idea from other arpgs. us gamers can't tell the difference between other skills if they obfuscate important information. maybe they're trying to dumb it down for a certain crowd xdd.

like how much is 140% minion crit ?

ok this i can answer, base crit for minions is same as you.
5%
so that means all you calculations start from there. watch out for some differences.
1. increased critical chance means it's 5% x (1 + incr crit chance)
2. +crit chance means it's adding to 5%
number 2 is the good one because you can cap out faster at 100% crit. afaik, its not the same as ignite or frostbite were you can get 200% and apply 2 stacks. it would be kinda too OP though. imagine 300% crit chance, that means that's 3 x 200 crit multi or 600% more damage!

I doubt it can be hard to implement the dps on skill overview like we have on other spells.. minions already have a statsheet..
