 +Minion works fine with ACT but the new injection method built into ACT called "Deucalion Injection Library" can potentially cause issues. If you're using this optional setting, then make sure Minion is properly attached to the game before opening ACT. You can turn off this setting in Plugins > FFXIV ACT Plugin > Inject and use Deucalion for network data.
