Minion

• Summary
  • The Minion is a fast, cheap and relatively weak, ranged flying unit. Its appearance is that of a gargoyle with large horns, stubby wings and large hands with sharp vicious claws that are covered in Dark Elixir.
  • It is made of Dark Elixir and is trained in the Dark Barracks.
  • The Minion's method of attack is spitting Dark Elixir.
  • Because it is a flying troop, it cannot be attacked by Cannons, Mortars, or X-Bows in Ground Mode but is extremely vulnerable to Air Defenses and Air Bombs.
  • Although out of all Dark Elixir Troops the Minion has the lowest health and does the least damage per second, it has the fastest training time and requires the least housing space. On a per housing space basis, the Minion has the highest DPS of all Dark Elixir Troops (and is fifth among all troops to the Wizard, Goblin, Balloon and Barbarian).
  • Seeking Air Mines do not target Minions, but regular Air Bombs do.
