Dark Bond

Description
For the next 30...54 seconds, whenever you receive damage, your closest minion suffers 75% of that damage for you.

Progression

 * Duration is measured in seconds.

Usage

 * Combines well with Aura of the Lich - the aura halves all damage received, so your minion will only take 75% of the halved damage. This means that they will last twice as long.
 * Even if you do not use Blood Magic, this is a useful skill for any minion master to use, because even with 0 Blood Magic, this skill still lasts longer than the recharge time, so it can be used indefinitely.
 * Oddly, the damage reduction persists for the length of enchantment even if your only minion dies prematurely. The damage reduction cannot, however, be renewed if you have no minion left alive.
 * It is unknown whether Dark Bond will ever kill more than one minion. The oddity noted above suggests that it may not.
