Making minions useful

Would be awesome if our minions could be more than just vanity (and some SO CUTE) in-game. Not the easy-to-get ones necessarily, but those that are really hard-to-get.

Like if you have this-or-that minion out you get a (small!) bonus to a specific stat. Let's say a fire-based minion gives you a small boost to fire resistance, or e.g. the (hard to craft) iron dwarf increases craftsmanship and/or control by a small factor. Our minions actually helping us doing stuff in the world, expressed in such a bonus :)

And for those who are particular to one specific minion maybe even some kind of "glamour" so I can have my pet turtle out but get the bonus from my iron dwarf...

They found a way of making our Minions get to work: Verminion coming in 3.1.

So now we have incentives to collect them all.

I agree they are useless, paying 4-5 millions for a rare one? pfff lol

If only the Items from boss and chest would get into the ground, and then our minions could fetch them.. but nope, can't bring them into instances lol

Would be nice for the stats boost for crafting and gathering.. (don't give them any more ideas or they might hire you ;) )
