Yorick's Pets still have resistances they aren't intended to

There is leftover code from Yorick's old state, causing all of his pets to incorrectly halve all AoE damage dealt to them, even damage that is supposed to be %HP.

As you can clearly see, there is nothing in the spotlight, wiki, game page, or client that says they do this. It is not intended. His old pets did not have a base HP and were not so numerous, so they had AoE reduction. The new ones should not but are bugged to do so, EVEN the Maiden, who has up to 4000 HP.

They always had aoe do half the damage to prevent them from being one shotted by aoe spells. The COUNTERPLAY is that you can oneshot them with any auto attack.

Please look at the provided evidence to see that it is not intended and was not intended for the rework.

They used to have it because they were on longer cooldowns, had lower health, and were only allowed 3 at once.

I can assure you a 4000 HP pet isn’t going to get “one shot” by any AoE ability. This is a bug, unless someone from the design team makes a statement that it was intended.

It is this way for most if not all weaker pets in the game. They all have some sort of aoe damage reduction. Malz used to have it but they took it away. Ever since the rework his minions have always had aoe reduction afaik.
