It's really funny to me when people step in to like a room where everyone is complaining just to say "I don't know why you are complaining" when like everyone has done nothing but cite extremely clear reasons why they are complaining over and over and have reached a general consensus.

And also that the fact that there are so many people complaining, probably means they are the majority.

I can understand why they nerf minions though. They want minion players to make more complex builds where they utilise spells to boost their damage meanwhile minions would provide less damage and more utility. Whole Witch skill tree starts with nodes that boost minion damage and spell damage.

But what minion players want is for their minions to do all the damage

It is hard for me to make an educated guess would spell/minion hybrid build work since all streamers are still playing same build from 0.1 where they hide while minions do everything.

Also Javazon and Deadeye should have been nerfed already but they are too afraid to make balance patch after all the quitters when they nerfed meta skills in 0.1.

The problem is not that they nerf minions, its the way they do it that has multiple implications across the board and ends up being 6-8x nerf to the overall performance which i really hope was not their intention.

To be honest and like i said earlier, you cant force people into a specific playstyle, if they dont like it they wont play it and move on to something else.
If the game doesnt provide the builds and playstyle they like they wont be playing that game for long.

I really dont see the problem playing a minion build where u have to hide, dodge and stay out of trouble to not get killed while ur minions do their job when u can just play a lightning spear javazon/deadeye and one tap everything before it can even hit u.

Yes u are absolutely right java and deadeye are way too dominant and based on their nerfs this patch it seems like they very much wanted people to get pigeonholed into playing the new class/ascendancy/spear skills which brings me back to what i already said earlier, you cant force people into playing a build or playstyle they dont like
