No one is asking for that. If you want to troll with such exaggerations kindly consider making your own thread

Why? Seems many people in this topic like power without efforts. I just want give them more fun :)

Good mercs don't come without efforts though. Ideally you find a very good one and then still have to gear them. Some of my mercs are upwards of 90 divines - every bit of power I get out of them is justified.

Some players also end up getting farmed by mercs 24/7, so yes it's a bit more than just "free" player power.

Fomo Mercs need to go core :)

Pls tell me how much time needed to find a merc that able to wear Doryani, Perquil toe, 500+ rarity gravebinder? Or lots of other less powerful, but still strong uniques.

I.e. for 1 min play you get a thing, that doubles amount of equippable items. Really "every bit of power I get out of them is justified." :D

"Justified?" I dun feel particularly motivated to "justify" anything I do in the game which the system allows me to do, and certainly not to forum gadflies eager for a sparring partner. If the Devs (in their infinite wisdom) deem it right and proper to make Mercs a core element of Path of Exile (as they did with Settlers), then I and some others will be grateful. If not, well, not much to be done about it, though it will take some getting used to after this league not to have the backup to which we've become accustomed. ='[.]'=

For starters none of my 3 mercs use Doryanis, nor do they use Perquil. Mine are high level (T17) with the correct skillset, aura and min-maxed supports. Getting them took a good few weeks of actively playing. So yes, every bit of power I get out of them is very well justified. However, I don't expect a new player like yourself to understand - all you see is Doryani and whatever else tickles your fomo brain.

Obviously, as stated and suggested numerous times, GGG would have to make adjustments. That doesn't change the fact that Mercs would be a very good and long overdue addition to the core game.

On that note, push for mercs to go core!
