Description
Check for duplicates
- I've checked for duplicate open and closed issues by using the search function of the issue tracker
Is your feature request related to a problem?
I'd like to be able to see the conversation from life to energy shield:
Minions Convert 2% of their Maximum Life to Maximum Energy
Shield per 1% Chaos Resistance they have
I ran in to the problem,
- that my minions in game had zero life while above 50% chaos resistence - so instantly died
- and zero energy shield in path of building, regardless how many chaos resistance they had (at least 20%)
and so the DPS calculation for ignoring the resistances:
While Minions have Energy Shield, their Hits Ignore Monster Elemental Resistances
is not taken into account.
Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like to be able to see the conversation from life to energy shield, like stated on the item:
Minions Convert 2% of their Maximum Life to Maximum Energy
Shield per 1% Chaos Resistance they have
So if I increase or decrease the chaos resistence for my minions I'd like to see the increases and reductions to life and energy shield.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I don't have a real alternative. You can only see the real DPS if you apply another source of energy shield to your minions. Especially I would like to see if my minions life got zero.
Edit: I found an alternative:
simply put something like this in your custom modifies in the configuration tab:
Minions gain 20% of maximum life as extra maximum energy shield
Minions have 40% reduced maximum life
Additional context
With 20% chaos res no energy shield on raging spirits:
With 73% chaos res and "grave intentions" life is still not zero, but some conversation seems to take place:
allocating "radiant path" to get some energy shield for DPS calculation:

Research direction
Start by tracing how minion life, energy shield, and chaos resistance are represented in the Lua project, then compare the calculations with the issue's 20% and 73% chaos-resistance examples. Done means minion life and energy shield reflect the conversion and the energy-shield-dependent DPS calculation is updated or its unsupported scope is documented.
