Who loves mercs?

FROM THE PIT TO THE GRAVEEEEEEEEEEE.

Really like having mercs. Its like multiplayer but :D I dont need to share loot.

Also really liking the voice lines.

Can we get MTX voiceliines for our characters in the future?

And I want to slap my cosmetics onto my merc please!

I'm enjoying it even though the game client's performance is really bad. The whole thing pulled me out of Standard league. I haven't seriously played a challenge league since Ultimatum.

I love the mercs and will be sad when they are gone.
Yesss! 😁
I like that you can estimate very fast with what category you're dealing with when hearing their voice lines.
Some are more general but the bow mercs (snipers,manyshots) and the stupid ones (dimwits, simples) are more distinctive and make me laugh every time i walk past them. Maybe i'm missing somethiong but it's kinda hilarious they used the trap mercs for the idiot archetype.

Boro Boro, Meelo Makalaaaaaaaaa.

I do. I put a ring on mine.

I love mercs and hope they go core and join us in PoE2 as well!!
nice to have a 2nd AG ...... but once u got the one you need,the mechanic is boring af .
learning is a painful process ... knowledge is the most deadly weapon.
I'm liking them quite a bit. Not just for the boost in power either. They encourage me to finally learn stuff about other builds and what gear is good for bow/melee.

They're voice lines/personalities are well done and I like how they dont turn into 'yes-men' when hired. My favorites so far are a flickerstrike maniac that spoke gibberish and an old Scottish Templar that obliterates everything with divine ire while chatting casually.

Mercs also add a lot of value back to uniques that arent viable for players to wear. Like that amulet from black star/shrek that can give 15% cull.

Kinda agree. I accidentally dismissed my main guy and am now having more fun playing with random ones.
