Bind Demon - do your skills affect minions summoned/resurrected by your demon?

Hi

When you bounded a

Vile Mother,

Fetish Shaman or

Fallen Shaman and it summons or resurrects a minion, is the minion affected by your skills passive bonus (

Bind Demon,

Demonic Mastery and

Blood Oath)?

Good question, tbh idk. I wanna say yes but someone smarter and more informed than me should confirm.

I would probably think 'no', though I'd like it if it were 'yes'. I'm not sure there is any way to tell (short of code disassembly or access to the source), since the stats aren't listed.

I made some tests with a bounded

Vile Mother and it seems the answer is no

1 -

Death Mark doesn't teleport the "children minions" (so I assume they don't receive the bonus either...)

2 -

Blood Boil don't create an explosion around the "child minions"

3 - Considering items 1 and 2, I assume

Engorge doesn't affect them either.

4 - I think that if

Bind Demon and

Demonic Mastery did affect the "child minions" their damage would be comparable to my bounded

Vile Mother's, but while

Vile Mother's was dealing something like 70-80% of the normal monsters life bar per hit in my test, the "child minions" were doing something closer to just 5% (visually)....

I believe the only influence you can have on "sub minions" as such, is for them to be from a

Terror zone (or be created in one in the case of vile children).

This way, they'll have whatever property the

Terror zone has.

The "children minions" don't keep the affix from the TZ (in my case was Cursed when I bound the

Vile Mother)

The "children minions" may gain all the "general" buffs (like a Returned from Faith) like:
Aura form players, Merc or other Minions

Enchant (from Act 3 Merc of from a player)

Battle Command

Battle Orders

I was rolling with a bound

River of Flame

Vile Mother from a

Terror zone - the adds definitely inherited the extra fast mod, if nothing else. Immune to physical seems likely too, but given the presumably way smaller total hp they would still die regularly enough in places like TZ worldstone keep.

They also visibly got might aura from act 2 mercenary and I could hit them with

Enchant individually. Too many auras to know if they had cursed like mami, but they were mainly there to get in the way of enemies anyway.
