Welcome to the Wizard101 Message Boards

I was in a pvp, I went first and the fire wizard summoned a storm minion. I took him out with an immolate, and he fled on his minion's turn. I got my 3 points, but the minion was still there. So I was battling a minion, but no person. I killed the minion, but the last time I remembered, The minion is not supposed to stay there.

While in PvP the minions are like henchmen, they will stay, even though the wizard has been defeated, (defeated meaning fled in the PvP sense.)

Thanks, awesome, I did'nt know that. I'm a Myth student and have tons of minions, so that was useful to know.

Really? When a wizard summons a minion in PvP and i kill the wizard, the minion USUALLY goes away o.O

If you kill a wizard and not their minion, the minion has always stayed around for that current round (and then would poof afterwards). However, just the other day I saw my life minion continue for several rounds healing others in my group after I was defeated. I don't know if that was a one time thing or not, nor if it was a bug. It is different from before though.
