What Will Happen When The Mercenaries League Ends

Them removing mercs while saying mercs will come back at a later date almost seems like the worse of both worlds, with people who love mercs having them deleted and people who hate mercs still having to dread the future.

How vexing.

(they could have at least refrigerated them and maybe even let them sit around in the hideout during that time. Sucks to be those with the super rare collector edition mercs, I guess)

I'm looking forward to them being back in the future with a little less impact on endgame.

I mean, you've left out a load of other scenarios, specifically so you can be annoyed at GGG.

People who enjoyed mercs at the time who can now look forward to seeing them return in the future.

People who didn't enjoy mercs and won't need to interact with them when they return in the future.

People who aren't bothered either way.

Cool.

If the mercenaries come back, I'd like them to die less though. Or at least more predictably. I was using Doppelganger on them, capped res, capped armour, plenty of life... And they would still just die, out of nowhere, even in t16s.

I couldn't be bothered spending 9k gold every time it happened, so I stopped using them after I completed the seasonal tasks.

I have no idea what you are talking about. I don't remember the last time I had to revive the merc. And I played every content. T17s, Uber bosses, T16.5 Alva strat.

I guess that you are playing maps with reflect, but your merc has no defense against that.

Noo not to heist i really really really HATE heist

Keeping the new gems is nice, hopefully they get a little balance pass also ;)

Nice, mercs have been fun, but sensible to rebalance.

I really enjoyed for the mercenaries bolstering my characters weaknesses. I mostly used them as aura bots but it felt like a great addition/additional power-progression.

I could imagine they "dumb down" the mechanic a lot more so that they are mostly a bit of a power-boost but not as game breaking as in the league.

like they could have 1 aura, and maybe 2-3 items, instead of a full kit.

Or maybe they remove the companion mode altogether, which i would be sad about.

So maybe reducing complexity and power could be a good way.

Mercs are neat, keep them.
