Up front, my apologies if this is covered elsewhere. A few searches didn't reveal it so here's the question.
I've noticed that the AI will heal minions out of battle, but I've had a tough time determining through observation whether they are spending their time and energy to heal minions during battle. Since I've got a hero playing minion bomber, I really don't want the other H/H healing the minions during battle.
So how do the AI healers treat those minions during a battle?

The AI does not use skills on minions when theres foes in the aggro cricle unless the skills hidden "use when" discription specifically states to(far as I know only for [skill=text]Death Nova[/skill] and [skill=text]Jagged Bones[/skill])
Not only heals, but also other skills, I think [wiki]Withering Aura[/wiki] is useless for a MM hero, cuz they don't use it on minions during combat.
One of the reasons I want Anet to less us mess with the "Use when" description, instead of only disabling/enabling hero skills.

I think you're wrong, System_Crush.
My minion bomber loves to spam Prot Spirit on minions, and I hate it, cause I want them to die.

Pretty sure AI doesn't use prots/heal minions when they know an enemy is in earshot.
If you aggro some random mob and don't call any targets or attack, their melee can get real close before your H/H's actually notice them.

they loved to spam prot spirit on the minions, even with foes in the radar. A build used that fact to raise lvl 6 minions and spam spoil victor. However it could be that Anet made the AI smarter.

I loved when my dunkoro spammed infuse on minions, but i think they should make better AI for this thing too. (Just took it for fun)

This reminds me of Mhenlo using WoH on my bomber's minions....

OT: I noticed AI healing minions in battle if the party isn't taking any noticable damage. So I'd think they prioritize party members, if they don't require healing, they focus on the minions.

Well I guess this answered it in a round about way.Basically what happens is she heals EVERYTHING and USUALLY costs no energy.She also will pick up the hex/condition stuff and get it off of whatever(be it minion or party member).

If Anet fixes their minion healing then Death Nova, Epic minion bombing and similar stuff will go with it too, and we will also get a bug were healers wont heal, I am ficking sure about it.

It's about energy. When sitting around you'll notice your monks won't spam themselves dry on dying minions, but they typically will for dying party members.

They use Prot Spirit as a divine Heal, the only thing I hate about teh hero Monks, make them stop, NOW! T_T
