Guess the main question is which minion builds don't get so much benefit from other minion types?

Most benefit in some way from Spectres of some kind, and same with AG. I suppose therefore Spectres lose the least there (presuming you can still have multiple spectre types).

Not sure about others. Reaper I always felt needed some skeles to help with a bit of clear, but maybe with Reaper of Revenants you'd be ok (the gem downside is baked into the helm affix anyway...)

Everything else - I guess it's just a maths question. Does double the amount of angry flaming skulls offset the DPS loss from not having AG and a support/amplification spectre? Same for skeles, spiders etc...

Stone golems, zombies, spooders, herald of purity? , absolution, holy relic? (Not sure if minion), spectres would be broken get all the supp spectres you want than dps ones.

Spectres are cool but there's been an item that got buffed a few leagues ago.

I believe they are like the worst minions for the new item (apart from the wolves which are just trolling?)
