This has actually been bugging me for a while, when you use surge of faith to boost minions for 7 seconds, do they have to be around you, does ot have to hit an enemy or demigod, or does just using the skill anywhere at anytime still boost them?

It only affects allies in range of Surge of Faith. Allies being Minions, DGs and Reinforcements.

Surge of faith effects all units in its radius.  If the unit is an enemy, it takes damage.  If it is an ally, it gains move and attack speed. This does not just boost your minions.  If they are not in the radius they will not attack any faster.

However, because the MOVEMENT SPEED of your minions is the same as your OWN movement speed, then they will always get the speed boost, since Surge will always effect you.

Good catch on the Movement Speed affecting Minions regardless or AoE. I may have to rethink using Surge of Faith when chasing after enemy DGs.

That's what I was looking for I needed to know if there was a certain radius I had to be for my minions to be affected.
