Question:

I took the "Phrenic Master" paragon path.  It has an encounter power called "Minion's Shield" that reads:
Trigger: You take damage from an attack while your spirit companion is adjacent to you.
Effect: Your spirit companion takes the damage instead of you.

I was wondering if the shaman will still take the effect of an attack power (e.g. daze)?  Also, is this considered a "miss" attack.

How do the Wilden racial powers work with the SC?  

"Trigger: A bloodied enemy attacks you or your ally adjacent to you" 

Does the word "you" count as my SC or is it litterally the shaman only?

Shaman only. Conjurations are not you and are not an ally.

It seems like there was a thread detailing the issues with the SC's damage thresholds post-MM3. Does anybody remember that thread? Opened with a neat chart showing how the threshold went up over 30 levels pre-MM3, and post, and suggested a few fixes.

I can't for the life of me find it

Okay, I'm having a question about the power Spirit Infusion.  It allows an ally to attack an enemy with bonuses, and as it doesn't really have an action, I was wondering if I could use it on an unconcious ally.

By strick RAW yes since the enabled melee basic attack use no action and an unconscious creature can use powers that use no action.

It probably not intended though. The Power Commander's Strike was also like that before it was updated to let the melee basic attack as a free action, for this very reason. So expect possible DM objections.

If your DM objects to it, describe it as your spirit companion animating the ally's body just long enough to make the attack.  DMs might look more favorably upon using it on stunned allies, though. 

The ally is still attacking from prone, even with the bonus, that's a -2 penalty to the attack roll right there.  But if the DM objects, that's final.

so the rules say that the spirit can be damaged by melee or ranged attacks - so what are the spirit's defenses?
