Myth wizards are meant to buff heal and protect their minions while they help you fight off your enemy. can the myth wizard buff heal and protect himself too or is he suppose to only buff heal and protect his minions I am a myth wizard too by the way. myth rule in questing.

It sounds like your having a lot of questions on how to effectively use minions in battle. In general, you will kill enemies quicker than your minions can. Minions have varied uses, some shield, some heal, some draw the attacks of the enemy away from you. It's good to shield your minion a little so it can survive to help you but the priority should always be to heal yourself and buff yourself as you are in general more efficient at defeating enemies than your minions are.

Hope that helps.

Personally, I wouldn't heal or shield them unless there wasn't a more useful move to do.

It depends on your minion. I suggest practice playing with your different minions until you see what spells they like to do. When you are lower in level, the minions tend to help you by hitting and they start shielding and blading later. So just learn how your minions usually act and that will help in know how to use them.

Minions cannot be directly controlled by the player-they are controlled by an AI instead. However, you can sometimes get them to perform a certain action by using the Battle section in Menu Chat.
