Sadly no buff to merc. I loved playing with my merc, but last season it was just wet parchment.
last season i tried to make the merc work, but then just stopped summoning him after he died.
mercs are in a weird place. to me they feel like aura bots with nominal impact on dps/defense. that is unless i'm doing mercs wrong (which i could be) and they are much more valuable to people's builds. i'd say make them invincible honestly. like is anyone's merc even killing anything in high level zones or breaking their build if they die?
A well twinked merc can run Dfauzt However, it's very slow. But the main benefit was that the merc would not die, and just kill off stragglers. For certain type of builds it was beneficial. I think it would be nice if a merc could be included in a build to help with the weaknesses. It doesn't have to be ultra OP, just make it so it doesn't die all the time. Especially now that the game has actual goldsinks in the new patch.
