The term kill refers to causing death of a creature.
When kills are made by summoned minions, totems, traps or mines, player characters are credited for kills for the purposes of increased item quantity and rarity, flasks, and achievement-related stats, but generally not combat-related stats, where the non-player entity would get the credit for the kill instead.[citation needed] However, there is currently a bug that causes any damage over time kills to always grant credit to the player character even if they are caused by a minion, totem, trap, or mine.[citation needed]
Totems and minions that have despawned, either through their duration expiring, being killed, or spawning more than the maximum amount, all count as having died. For instance, despawning minions will trigger the Caustic Cloud effect from the Necromancer's Beacon of Corruption ascendancy passive. Likewise, players wearing a Soul MantleSoul Mantle

- skill-specific effects (e.g. Infernal Blow's explosion)
