Minion Weapon Swap Bug
I use weapon swap to despawn all my minions (0 minions assigned to weapon slot 2) and then swap back to main weapon to summon them back to me. A lot of players do this and you can see on youtube that it works as intended. This works perfectly when I tried mouse+keyboard setup. But, once I switched to controller setup, 50% of the time the minions trigger the respawn timer when I switch back to main weapon instead of reapearing immediatey. Thus, they are not spawned immediately and I must wait the ~4s timer for them to appear.
This bug only occurs when monsters are around me, and only when playing using the controller. When I spam swap while no monsters are around, they respawn normally 100% of the time when I return to main weapon set. So this is clearly a bug. Last bumped4 февр. 2025 г., 11:36:03

Uploaded a clip showing some cases where this happens. You can easily see which weapon set I am at the moment by looking if the 'blink' icon is present in the bottom left side of the skillbar. My Blink is ONLY assigned to weapon set 2 (the shield set), while minions are ONLY assigned to weapon set 1 (the pickaxe+sceptre set).
https://youtu.be/QUihMhirm4w I start the video at weapon set 2 (no minions assigned to weapon set 2, but blink is assigned for mobility), then at 6s I weapon swap to set 1 and minions spawn normally, as it is supposed to happen. At 27s, I swap back to set 2 in order to blink, and at 32s I swap back to weapon set 1 (by using flame wall, flame wall is assigned to weapon set 1 only), but you can see clearly at the bottom left of my screen that the 'respawn timer' for minions was activated and they were not summoned, only after the respawn timer ends. The same bug is shown again at at 1m06s. At 1m20s I try to show that, when there are no monsters around, the bug NEVER happens. For some reason, the occurence rate reduces A LOT when I am recording (why??), like it only occurs ~20% of the time when I am recording, while occurring ~50% of the time when playing normally. I already spent 3 whole minutes in a map (not in this video) swapping weapons to check if the bug ever occurs when no monsters are around and it did not occur even once. Also, when using mouse+keyboard it also never happens (you can see many youtubers playing minion builds using weapon swap with no problem), only when I am using the controller, so I believe this is some sort of controller-related bug, such as the Pain Offering bug on controller many other players have already reported.

I've experienced the same issue many times. Strangely, switching my setup to have minions on weapon set 2 instead has reduced the rate of this bug occurring significantly. You may want to try that as a workaround until it is fixed

" I will try that, thank you. Edit: tried it, no change for me unfortunately. Still fails about 50% of the time regardless of which weapon set I set my minions to. Последняя редакция: Rydreeck#6554. Время: 4 февр. 2025 г., 13:07:55
