It should say in the summon's tooltip which skills actually affect it.
Like if you look at the sin's familiars, they benefit from her Perfect Being as well as her passive poison/fire/lightning damage

I wish I could tell you specifically about the barb but I don't have one to check.

Alright guys noob question.
So I know how switch items work with certain skills like Bloodlust and some other buffs that affect life total etc

My question is about long duration skills (Vessels in particular)
If I were to have a sword and a shield with huge Phys/Magic spell damage and I cast my vessels, when I switch back to my mainhand gear, will the damage from my pre-cast vessels stay the same as they were while on Switch or would the vessel damage be based on my mainhand stat bonuses?

And finally, with the new item passives like that on Abjugator, would that passive stick to the pre-cast vessels or does it need to be in my hand while I run around to apply?
Idk if passives work the same as standard stats.

Someone mentioned that the +Skill levels would stick but the +Spell damage wouldn't.
Unfortunately I don't have the gear to test this

Thx ... the tooltip only tells me something about synergies with Shamanic Trance ... and Daedalus tells me that in sharpoens YOUR blades and increases YOUR life ... mine or also those of the summons? :roll:

In that case I believe it's only on you.
Most of the time if a skill bonuses you and your pets, it'll specify in the main skill or it'll show in the pet's tooltip

the damage of the vessels is calculated each time a new missile is released , so a few times per second . if you keep the gear with high %phys/magical spell damage and +skills on switch it won't help at all for prebuffing vessels

i believe it also answers your second question . only the main hand counts in the moment the missiles are generated

Yes thank you!
I was trying to avoid being reliant on Abjugator in my main hand haha but still, it's not a bad main hand :)

Thank you again :)

Does damage from multiple lava pits stack? On longer boss fights (single target) i could not see any difference between casting it once and spamcasting, multiple Bloodstorm turrets (also fire damage) yield better results
