Please bear in mind that I am replying while pretty much half-asleep, so don't do anything radical just because I wrote it. Re.1: Make the healing effect non-resistable? Or stuff like that, it's stupid so it might help. Re.2: Player responds to every taxa ever, really. Re.3: It's an issue with monsters summoned as hostile - they keep their "enforced hostile" status even after being charmed, and thus the genocide your charmed troops partake in (because anything currently marked as "hostile" is fair game for minion targeting). Re.4: It's chance-based from what I see, so it is possible for it never to had triggered due to a streak of bad luck.
ninja'd (log-out'd when typing ) Re.1: Problem was they don't take damage. i never'd see they resist heal Edit : i think i made confuse. i mean they summon with half of their max hp. which 100-ish Re.2: fix'd with "i'm not crab" (remove buff right after buff. also self="0" Re.3: yes right. I also notice they only kill one as a team and left other 2 are friendly, sometimes they also kill each other until left only one Re.4: No. i tested with 100% 1) half-fixed, reduce resist doesn't change anything(or i just didn't notice difference) but deal x2 damage cause cannot summon at 1 floor. but well scale at 2 floor (with somewhat more hp, like 10?). but after 3floor have slightly more health(i don't know 4 floor tho) like 30 ~ 50? floor scale may fix this but i have no idea how is it work. any mod using it? 2) Fix'd, used self="0" and i'm not crab, but targethiteffectbuff does not work with monster. but this is work Spoiler: Hint Text <spell name="Crab Attack Scale " type="target" icon="skills/warrior/berserker0_32.png" wand="0"> <anim sprite="sprites/sfx/rage/rage" frames="3" framerate="50" sfx="ping" /> <buff useTimer="1" self="0" time="11" stacksize="1" icon="skills/spells/monstrous_rage64.png" smallicon="skills/spells/monstrous_rage32.png"> <description text="This rage is monstrous!" monsterText="smoulders with RAGE!"/> <targetHitEffectBuff percentage="100" name="Pyrokinesis" /> </buff> <effect type="dot" amount="5" spell="Corpse Removal 2" /> <ai hint="buff"/> </spell> <spell name="Corpse Removal 2" type="template" templateID="20" anchored="0"> <effect type="damage" blasting="1" blastingF="0.2" primaryScale="5" affectscaster="0" /> </spell> maybe make similar attack scale?

I would like to point out that "onhit" uses a "one in x" rather than "x out of 100" system, so setting it to 100 means it only has a 1% chance of triggering; setting it to 1 instead would make it into a 100% chance.
mmmm.. Doesn't work for me.. i don't think it's not work just because it's pet. maybe i wrecked somewhere when paste/tweaking i'll keep try. Gun drone attack entire game(maybe random aoe attack and less damage deal when attack far way?) vs When activate choose near ? target and attack them 3(or more)time. What's better? first one will hard to balance, but still it's more like pet also unique(just keep move will kill everything with just drone, latter one easy to balance but nothing unique and more like just a skill.
