Announcements - Mercenaries of Trarthus Statistics - Forum

Interesting stats. Looks like the clear takeaway is people either don't do the mechanic or they just peek at the rucksack (guilty myself)	Posted by SemperFiDoOrDie#6531 on Jul 2, 2025, 9:21:08 AM Quote this Post

But That would probably show how small are the odds of hitting something good And the reason why people skip mercenaries ..lame Yeah people skip them entirely which is crazy because it takes 3 seconds to see if they have some chaos or not, or a kalandra, hh, etc. and if you don't feel like doing it and you must already have a good rolled infamous type of your merc. People will find any excuse not to do something and then complain about it. Lol The reason why I don't interact with them is precisely because if they have great loot and I know I can't get it due to one-shots, then I'd just be more frustrated than if I didn't know what was there to begin with. Yeah with the one shots so here's some things you can do for that. After you engage with the merc, leap slam/dash/whatever away until they are far from you and just kite them. That's how I do it. Using VFOS it's not hard for me to LOS them using terrain. ★ Forum Threads ★ ★ Unlock Sandwraith Kill Tracker #3461595 ★ ★ Deli Music Off #3450767 ★ ★ Bestiary QOL #3380585 ★	Posted by KingExodusGG#1474 on Jul 2, 2025, 9:39:36 AM Quote this Post
Can we now get these stats with Pre-nerf and Post-nerf numbers. Also can we factor in the chance of being able to beat said mercenary with the build they had. At this point you might as well say that 100% of people who drink water end up dead and while being 100% factually correct it isn't the leading cause of the deaths.

More slots would be nice. The system as a whole should go core.... this is just the way it is now lol.	Posted by Blech71#2875 on Jul 2, 2025, 9:52:00 AM Quote this Post

Using VFOS it's not hard for me to LOS them using terrain. You are using a specific build, not all builds are VFOS. Some need time to build up (EA Balista) or are melee close range focused (Flicker strike). Others can't deal with maybe some gems that the Mercs are carrying. Think of it like this, it's like asking a Cold Sorc in OG Diablo 2 to take on a Cold Immune enemy.	Posted by iJul#4895 on Jul 2, 2025, 9:52:47 AM Quote this Post
" Infamous Warpriest of the Ruckus has spawned a single time, but was not interacted with. Sad! Hopefully another one will be found, the number of maps required to find him is approximately equivalent to the number of years since the dinosaurs became extinct, so no guarantees. Dude... I was the one who spawned Infamous Ruckus and I left him alone cause he didnt have any good shit. It was on the beach map yesterday afternoon. I just did I quick google infamous mercs and had no idea how rare he actually was. I had an open merc but left him alone =( Last edited by Vaildez#6753 on Jul 2, 2025, 10:51:12 AM	Posted by Vaildez#6753 on Jul 2, 2025, 10:39:20 AM Quote this Post

I am kicking myself now cause I looked at his abilities and was like wow this looks cool especially touch of god but I wasn't looking for a merc to carry me and he wasn't of the archetypes i wanted.	Posted by Vaildez#6753 on Jul 2, 2025, 11:13:29 AM Quote this Post
It wouldn't be a bad idea if our mercenaries had some inventory slots to benefit us... =)	Posted by M4RKJ0K3R#6212 on Jul 2, 2025, 11:45:39 AM Quote this Post
