Hey question out of curiosity. Most of the time when it comes to the EE part of the build its lightning right? (Ball lightning, later arc). But tested it right now and when applying EE with lightning they get vulnerable to cold. But fire golem, the vanguards and the aura all do fire. Whats that about?

Your minions don't trigger EE, they just take advantage of yours. So you hit them with lightning, they gain resist to that and lose resist to fire and cold. Your minions are doing all fire damage, so they get a damage bonus.

If *you* hit them with fire, your minions would do significantly less damage.

Thats what I thought. But they only get vulnerable to cold when you check the attributes below their name when I hit them with lightning. I get the point of EE and on combination with the fire minions, its just not giving me the fire advantage. So maybe there is some other inside I miss?

Apart from Spectres (due to map levels), do I have to re-summon any of my minions when the gem levels up? e.g. my AG is level 17 in a +2 minion helm with +3 empower. When it hits level 18..19..20, do I need to completely re-summon him or does he scale automatically?

Same with zombies?

2 x Dyadus, Icetomb, Bringer of Rain, Southbound or rare gloves with life and resist, Rainbowstride or victarios charity depending on whether you are running extra resist on the gloves already.

That sounds as if you have some extra fire damage built into your gear perhaps?

I can't check your char, it's marked as private.
