Huh? The 2w succeeds on all rolls but 20 (which is bumped from fumble to failure), and criticals on 1 or 2.
And if there were 2-3 more masteries involved, his opponent would be squashed like a bug under Gonn Orta's foot.
Are you forgetting the special rule about masteries where both roll a failure?

The usual Hero Wars answer: it depends on context.
If the follower is all by himself, the follower is just a person like any other.
If with his hero, his APs are merged into the hero's, and the attacker would have to deal with the hero's skills.
