A lot of people go out of their way to struggle with something, and then "brag" about how bad they are at said thing.
It is as weird as it sounds.

My first time playing minions on POE2 as well. So I really have no clue how anyone is struggling with these things.

SSF Infernalist. This is fight is completely busted; the healing is way too much.

I struggled here, and my solution was to disable my minions, but I'm in more of a hybrid position, where the minions are more intended to tank while I channel Bone Storm. Though I had to turn them back on for Zolin after killing Zelina as he out healed me by draining her corpse. I wouldn't say it was the most fun I've ever had, and do think these two where the least fun of the added bosses, and by far the hardest of the added bosses (mostly because I think most of the added bosses are a bit on the too easy side and could use a little buff up).

I bug reported this, stealing health from her when she is down doesn't feel intended to me...

Zelina, Blood Priestess no longer heals from her attacks that hit player minions.

Currently my character is a Lich Witch

level 69
spirit 431
skeletal warrior x3
skeletal sniper x1
skeletal arsonist x1
skeletal frost x1
skeletal reaver x2
skeletal storm x1
skeletal brute x2
Ravenous Swarm
Unearth
Flame Wall

And i find it impossible to beat these two bosses no matter how hard i try or how i reconfigure my minions - besides, the fight arena is too small and way to many things happening at the same time.

its not fun
its not engaging
its not challenging 
its just irritating 


[edit: the next day]

After 20+ attempts in total and 15min+ in the last try - i finally managed to beat them in the most dumb way possible..

I just kept running circles around the room and dodging their attacks while my minions would do whatever they wanted, i used all my health flask but stayed alive long enough to see them kill zolina - only after that i could finally engage in combat and kill zelin

However, after i got the mission completed alert, he still keep fighting and doing damage; i had to lure him to one side of the room so i could talk to the hooded one and actually finalize the mission.

Maybe there are still some bugs left in this fight; i hope they address it because up to this point the game provided and amazing experience and all my previous deaths were my fault.

it is bugged, I am stuck in this fight.... so annoying
