Strategy
Overview
Cult Minion's "Dark Pillars" Splash Attack is a decent option, for Juggling. It is not to be considered boss slayer material. Identical to Skeleton and Barbarian. Average character.
Castle Crashers
Cult Minion's incredibly easy to pick up and learn. His game plan is similar to Necromancer's except, the "Dark Pillars" Splash Attack has range. Can be used as a tank on elemental levels like lava world, as has near complete immunity to elemental magic.
Arena
Underrated Arena character. Cult Minion's "Dark Pillars" Splash Attack can be lead to a mediumweight juggle.

Trivia
- Cult Minion's official name was announced by The Behemoth when they revealed the Necromantic Pack for the Xbox 360 on August 26, 2009.
- In the code of the game and in the leaderboards, Cult Minion is simply referred to as Cultist.
- NPC Cult Minions are the most resilient playable enemies in the game as they resist all elemental magic attacks such as Ice, Electricity, Poison, and Fire.
- However, NPC Cult Minions take 1 damage per hit rather than 0.
- Since Cult Minion's starting weapon is the Glowstick, he, at Level 1, can switch to a different weapon and switch back to the Glowstick.
