Having a blast with my death necro, but I'm in dire need a key command to cycle through my animated minions. Death Nova is an awsome skill but I rarely use it because its too hard to apply effectively.

/agreed, besides the fact that this may actually make them of "some" use vs mursaat could be Nice... Vs mursaat henchman, pets, and summoned monsters all die in 1 second ^.^

I think theyre should be a section in the party window or even a seperate window that lists your minions. It would only appear if you actually have them, and would make watching their health and stuff much easier.

Heightened state of mind.

Pets yes, minions no, you can maintian dozens of minions with the right skills and party, if they were all shown in any window then you could cover the screen with health gauges. Minions are suppose to be cheap pawns and shortlived, they are not ment to be maintained over long periods of time, and if you do maintain them it should be difficult.

I would really really like it if the necro had a window pop up to keep his minions listed there so he could select them. We're not talking about healing them, but I primarily would like it for death nova. It is INSANELY hard to select a minion and try to blow him to bits amongst all the enemies/allies on the field, I know they're supposed to be short lived, which is why I WANT to blow them to bits for the damage. But selecting them is near impossible if you want to do it in-battle or something. A ranger can select his pets in a window, a necro should be able to select his in a window, afterall, he's at a disadvantage having them be so "shortlived" anyway right? Why not give us the window?!

I'd really like this to be added. The best way I find to apply Death Nova is as soon as the minions are raised. If you don't catch them both then it can be quite difficult.

Just for a side note:: I don't think they should show in the party window either... that would suck ^.^

Short lived... who have you been talking to? Vareta's sacrifice (SP) gives +10 health regen for all summoned... and there's another spell where you can get close to them and heal them too... area of effect for just the summons...

I suggest to use either just melee, or just ranged, that way the area of effect heal for them works easily.
