Tactician = Lifelong friend + Supporting fire interaction on Companion

If you use Supporting fire from Tactician and use 2 companions like i do
Lifelong Friend (minion revive 35% faster if all you minions are companions) won't work.

Why? Cause "Supporting fire" is aparently persistent minion.
It is not so obvious sinve it does not reserve any spirit and the "Balistas" are not visible nor on the field of battle.

I know it is not important for most of the players but maybe someone would try to meatshield yourself with two companions as i do and tried to work around REs time and not getting them more resistant.

Cheers.

Tbh it became quite obvious to me, when l noticed that the skill barely has any gem tags and wouldn't scale with nearly anything.

They only ways to scale it that l have found so far are:
-command nodes/supports
-level of minion skills
-minion damage

I also find it hilarious that they put the best node for the skill into Druid's Unseen path:
Mentorship:
-Minions have reduced attack speed
-Minions have reduced cast speed
-Minions deal 100% increased damage with command skills

So you have to live with just the very impractical
At your Command node:
-Minions deal 10% increased Damage with Command Skills for each different type of Persistent Minion in your Presence
