Isnt there the risk that all the smaller summons get oneshotted by a single aoe though?

They are not that frail. But even if: in case of the skeletons you will have 12 instead of 6 then...

Wow, they managed to nerf shield's enchantments by 75%

I would rather the pets each the AoE then my party members.

 

Everytime an enemy is attacking summons I am not sad I am happy because they are doing their job.

 

I am never more then 12 seconds away from 6-18 more hired goons.

Thanks for the hard work to those who went to the effort of screen capping these. Looks like some very interesting items and Obsidian certainly seem to have learnt the lesson of vanilla PoE's rather mundane items.

 

The staff looks interesting, though until we know how much it scales with Mysticism it'll be hard to say whether it's really good (if it's 1% per point then it'd probably cap out at around 25-30%, depending on other sources of bonus Mysticism, which is pretty decent).

 

despite crossbows and arbalests also using arrows;)

 

If I were being pedantic I'd say crossbows fire bolts or quarrels, not arrows
