We are playing on "Ragefire" which is a TLP server. Old content like this has renewed interest.
Recently we acquired the Orb of Swarming Darkness (OSD) by doing DoN missions. OSD has the focus "Minion of Darkness" (MoD).
TSS was releasing soon (we'd been away for a while) and I wondered if it would work on the new pets. There were mixed reviews but this post has comment about both the high and low ends.
First off, I'd like to greatly thank Adonhiram for a posting on the Magician's Tower discussing a lot of details about how pet foci work. In the article "PET FOCI IN EARLY EXPANSIONS Part I, how they work" he states that it is the level of the spell NOT the level of the pet that matters (opposite of what is stated above).
As a mage, I can easily test this. This is not to say that it works the same for other classes of pets as I've seen much posted by Necs and Bsts that contradict some of what Adonhiram said for mages. For a MAGE pet, Adonhiram is correct.
To test the minimum pet level was easy. I cast a 48 Earth Pet using my level 57 spell. According Whiteowl, the 48 should not focus, according to Adonhiram, it should.
It did focus. Cast w/o the MoD, the pet conned level 48. Cast with the focus, it conned level 50.
For the maximum level, that was more difficult. Adonhiram stated that, if it works on TSS (spell levels 71-74; Pet's all level 70) it is very slight. What is completely obvious is (and stated in the article) that it does not increase the pet level. Both the unfocused and focused pets are 70s. What is less clear is the hidden stats like accuracy and such. It would take some long parse runs to tell. The nuke portion of pet damage doesn't change (we ran focused and unfocused pets side by side).
The melee portion of pet damage is less clear. In a joint fights with both focused and unfocused pets (two of each) you couldn't tell any difference. If there is a difference it is small just as Adonhiram stated. Personally I'm no longer bothering to equip it to cast my TSS pets.
PET POWER: Again according to Adonhiram, Pet Power means NOTHING mathematical. Rather it represents a unique (based on pet focus effect) column in a DataBase from which to pull a pet model. The pet models are prepared by the Devs. Pet Power is nothing more than a number that essentially means "pet models focused by MoD" and nothing else. The models are what the devs decide and they've made a least one mistake in the past that proves it isn't mathematically calculated (a particular focused pet in a series was worse than unfocused).

I know this is old content, but sometimes it can be hard to find information on the effect of Minion of Darkness on certain pets. Maybe someone will find this information useful 10 years from now. :)

The most useful benefit to a focused pet is the enormously increased out of combat hp regen. For mages, I'm sure the benefit is more useful because the pets are beefier and have pretty substantial nukes, but for necros the impact to your pet is almost unnoticed.

For "Minion of Darkness" to effect your pet. The belt must be equipped before the pet is summoned. and the pet has to be the right level. The Min lvl for the effect is 59,
Based on Alla spell data)
It shouldn't work on the 59 necro pet spell. (its a 47)
By Alla's spell data it should start working on:
Spirit of Alladnu (68 bst)
& Legacy of Zek (61 Necromancer)
(These are my Personaly Tested Results, They do contradict above data ;)
I've tested with my bst. It does work on Alladnu. it DOES NOT give any message or indication that it worked on the pet
Alladnu hit for 86 before the belt. (noted in /log) with belt he was hitting for 94. (I don't have any aas for my pet)

Good effort on your test work. However, your premise is incorrect. The level for effect is spell level, not the level of the summoned pet. You only need to equip while summoning. This specific pet focus was developed pre-beastlords. The devs never went back and fixed it. That's why it doesn't work for the 62 & 64 beast pet (not sure on the lvl 60 pet).

Well, those people i have asked and talked to regarding this all agree on that is it acually the lvl of the pet that matters. What do you base your facts on if you dont mind me asking?

This is a VT (Luclin) level foci, when the highest pet in the game was mage epic (lvl 49, focused to 50). If the pet had to be level 59 for this to focus it, it would have been useless at the time as it would be whole'nother expansion before you saw a pet higher than level 50.
Correct. It should read:
1: Pet Power Increase (20)
2: Limit: Max Spell Level(75)
3: Limit: Min Spell Level (59)
1: Pet Power Increase (20)
2: Limit: Max Spell Level(75)
3: Limit: Min Spell Level (59)

Minion of Darkness does NOT work on Beastlords Spirit of Araga and Spirit of Sorsha spell level 62 and 64 pets which is retarded but true. This is true for any item that has Minion of darkness focus including the RSS and DoN Vendor ranged items

when worn and casting necro lvl 59 spell pet (emissary of thule) -
does NOT give effect emote, like "your drowned man's hair flickers"
pet hits for 76 max damage, with and without augmentation buff
pet still cons light blue to level 59 necro.
ps- emissary of thule hits max 69, without the focus effect.

My necro Foci used to report when you casted a pet, now they don't anymore. Minion of Darkness is supposed to affect pets level 59-75 and even the LDoN focus doesn't report anymore. Anyone have any idea whether they removed the "Your Drowned Man's Hair" glows with power or whatever statements?

Do you have to wear this item for pet to be affected or just when you cast it?

It only needs to be equiped while summoning the pet after that you can equip something else.

does it stack with the LDoN version?
They don't stack. Non of these focus items, do, they just check which is better and use that focus.
I don't have the dps parsed but overall the dps of the pet seems to increase by about 10-15% with that sphere
Could someone explain to me as you would a child, what does Pet Power refer to ?
Hit Points ?
STR ?
ATK?
All of the above ?
Thanks for the heads up, if you gotta link to a good splenation of the details I'll take it.

what this and all the other pet power items do, is raise the dammage of the pets them selves as well as the hp and other stats just like rdahl, what it means for a pet caster is a tuffer harder hitting pet. say your a 61 mage, youhave a air pet who has the level of a level 60 "monk" (even though it bashes for 35 and dosent seem to ever freaking kick) if i rember right his stuning spell also does around 180 dd dammage, this effect would do several thigns, 1 it would rais his level by 1-2 levels, make that stun spells dd effect do about 188 dammage make the pet hit for 1-2 more dammage max as well as give it more hp. so its like geting a whole new pet spell.
i think mages get there next air pet at like 67 or so, this would basicly make that level 61 air pet as a 61.5 pet, not as good as the level 67 air pet but a lot better in the long run then the 61 pet with out the focus.

I can not fully explain, but since no one else has replied...
It increases hp, atk, stats, damage table, mitigation table and sometimes level.
Here is a discussion of how pet armor effects a pet, but included are statistics with and without dpoc (ldon pet focus aug) so you can derive the info you are asking about.
