I played City of Heroes way back in the beta, and on and off over the years until the retail version was shut down.  So, I'm new to the current version, and can't remember half of what I used to know.

My question is about how enhancements put into the Enchant Demon power actually work.  I've heard conflicting reports, and the tooltips are not exactly clear on this point.  I'm only level 11, so some things hare harder to judge than they might be at endgame.

It seems like if I slot Range enhancements, it increases the range at which my demons can attack things.  The range shown when you hover over a slot with such an enhancement selected seem to make sense for this, but it's hard to accurately observe since they're acting on their own, not on my direct orders.  It doesn't really make much sense to be able to enchant my demons at a longer range, since I can only do it ONCE per zone transition.

Recharge is even more difficult to tell, but is a similar thing.. it seems like it should let them attack more often, rather than let ME use the enchant demon power more often, especially since you no longer have to cast this on every single minion.

So, just to make it clear, do these enhancements affect the abilities of the minions?  Or do they only affect MY use of the power?  If they're just my ability to cast the enchant spell, then there's no reason to every put anything or add any slots to it, unless you're in PvP perhaps.  If they do apply to my minions and their abilities, then it's VERY useful and I'll want to add more slots over time too.

The enhancements slotted into Enchant Demon currently will only affect the Enchant Demon power itself. Range IO will increase its distance from the MM to pet, to be able to cast. A recharge enhancement will make the Enchant Demon recharge quicker. End reduction will reduce its end cost.

 

Other MM primaries were updated in late 2022. Mercs, Necro, Ninjas and Bots upgrade powers can affect pets in various ways. Demons, Thugs and Beasts are possibly in the works.
