Can the Templar Heal a Witch Doctor's minions?

Question

If I play a Witch Doctor with a couple of minions, will the Templar use Heal on minions even though the text says you or the Templar?

Answer 1

In my experience, the Templar will only cast his Heal spell on the player or himself, as per the description. I have not had him heal a minion or other ally regardless of them needing it.

I think this makes sense from a code implementation and game play point of view - it would be simpler to implement, while also avoiding frustration for Witch Doctor players if their pets got healed and then they died due to a lack of a Heal.
