Need Strategy Help: 4 Minion Team (in General)


prewilder December 16 2007 5:17 AM EST

So here's my team:

Minion 1:
Max Hp

Minion 2:
1/2 Hp
1/2 MM
RoBF

Minion 3:
Max Protection

Minion 4:
Max EC

This team needs a lot of refining. I don't know whether I should use FB, MM, or Coc. And, I don't really have a good of how I should set up my other minions. Help would be greatly appreciated.

your first minion shouldn't train just HP. It should be an evasion wall, so you'd train a fair bit of evasion there. You might like to try 1/3 HP and MAX MM on the mage. Minion 3 shouldn't be training just protection. Protection should only be trained to about 20-25 effect. It caps out at 34 and is a real exponential curve. You'd probably want to train AMF or something.

Or an alternative would be to just chuck out minion 3. and use 3 minions and chuck a protection on the EC minion as it doesn't need much attention. Hope that helped a bit.

Here are the changes I would apply if I had your character (Minion position between parentheses) :

Minion 1 (3) - I would train PL on that minion so it is at about 1/4 the level of your HP. Equip an EH and eventually also try to find a MgS.

Minion 2 (2) - I would train 1/5 HP and the rest in CoC on that minion. Find a EH, some NSC, a CoI, a HoC, some DB and an AoI to equip on this minion.

Minion 3 (1) - I would train 9/10 Evasion and 1/10 Protection.

Minion 4 (4) - Switch from EC to AMF. EC on one minion will never be big enough to make a difference against most tanks. Equip the RBF on this minion.

Talion's advice looks pretty good, I'd just use MM instead of CoC because without a ToE, DM, or AS in a 4 minion team you're going to take a lot of backlash and GA damage with CoC.

Thanks for all the advice you guys. I thought talion's advice was particularly helpful.
