storm and fire minions are underpowered. storm doesn't have any attacks and fire just casts fire elves and VERY RARELY a fire cat.


both of them need to be powered up

It takes 2 to 3 rounds for it to really get warmed up. Once it does, the taunts are very effective in pulling attacks off you for several rounds at least. Once the minion gets hit a few times, he may even start throwing ghouls at the enemy, which is useful.
The thing I find irritating is the fact that in boss fights, the taunt will stop working sometimes, and the minion can't make it stick anymore. So he just sits there shielding himself over and over and over while I'm getting creamed. I agree that it is annoying that the storm minion won't share the shields or do more offensively when the taunt won't work.

i know! my friend often casts a storm minion, and all he does is shield himself WAY TOO MUCH. absolutely no help at all.
PS today is my birthday! i'm going to watch that movie, spirited away tonight. awesome movie, don't see it often though. *puts metal detector up to box*

They all do that for te reason of your saftey such as to annoy the enemy or totoaly distract them at certian times. Ice minions on the other hand such as mine fight like true warriors. But in the test that Ambrose has you take to be a wizard of some sort he asks you if you fight alone or in a team and storm and fire always pick alone and so thier minions make that possible to fight alone by being a figure in the background
