Confused about summoner stats.

[Internoob]

When I raise my summoners tower rate of fire, the number goes up instead of down. And when I use a huntress guardian on an archer, they shoot the same as the unbuffed ones. Is there a limit to how fast minions attack? And is the higher the number the better? Because mine says 14.28 but my minions don't take 14 seconds to attack (or am I reading it wrong)? Also whats the difference between rate of fire and attack speed?

Rate of Fire for Archers caps out at 1 second per shot at around 300 or so rate of fire.

I've spent over 4 million mana on respecs for my level 70 summoner and as near as I can tell the only stats really worth putting points into for minions are minion attack and minion health.

All minions seem to have their attack speed capped and I don't see any change in dps between having 120 points in minion attack speed and having 0 points, I've also checked and it does not appear to have any affect on the frequency of special attacks like the spider's web.

Range is only moderately useful as it seems to only affect archers, and even then only marginally.

Of course your summoner stats are important but point for point minion attack damage and hero attack damage cream everything else.
