PSA - We’re in the process of rolling out a server side hotfix buff to Necro skellies. It will take a while to propagate worldwide so we appreciate your patience while it’s happening. #DiabloIV

The minions don’t need buffs, they just need to be able to survive boss AoEs. Which could be accomplished by simply having them take less damage from boss AoEs while leaving them otherwise unchanged.

Blizzard should extend to Monday thanks to this.

The point is to get some testing done before release.
I applaud them for getting a hotfix out and not just tweak it for release.

I don’t think they mentioned how they are being buffed but my guess would be that it’s their survivability which is being buffed only as that seems to be the main complaint.

I’m actually quite interested in what the buffs ultimately are. Completely transparent, these devs are not.

I’m curious what it will be. I really hope it’s a buff to the priest only.
