Ohhh i didnt saw that ! I just commented .. sry lol

Yea i got it.
Sry fella .. was my mistake
All good 😁✌

no

I like your idea about act5 mercs having warcrys and act3 having enchant

thanks. i spent much time thinking on how i would want the mercs and this is what i feel fits best into d2. would people be okay with changes like this if they don't change the meta? guess some do and some don't.
i don't think there will be any changes to gameplay in d2r though. but when ideas get stuck in my head it just helps to write about them. even if they are not always that great.



no worries 😁

to the guys telling people to go play pd2. there are bros over at pd2 just like you guys who doesn't like changes to pd2 either 😁. telling people to go play d3.

another idea i was thinking about. what if merc could only have one aura active. and equipping it with item aura would get forced priority over other auras.
that would mean base aura from a2 merc would be less crucial. and it would make a1 merc more notable since it's Inner sight skill would not be affected. any other pros and cons coming to mind?

No. Essentially eliminates the need for CTA, barbs or enchant sorcs, and is a powercreep.

Disagree.

If the bo/chant is lower level than you can get from the other sources it wouldn't eliminate their need.

It wouldn't be very gamebreaking if they used shout, not battle orders, and it would be only a slight bonus for non-cta builds if they used battle command.
But even that is largely redundant because act 2 defiance mercs already give +% defense. And it might even be an inconvenience if you're trying to use an act 5 merc in pvp and now you have to prebuff him at monsters each time he's revived, otherwise he'll use shout instead of bashing someone's face in when you teleport on top of them. Also, they don't have a cast animation, do they?

Anyway its all silly because act 5 mercs are perfectly fine as is right now. Its act 3 mercs that are complete dogshit compared to the other three.

not really. since you don't get synergies for your merc Enchant and CTA gives you stronger battle orders. you could also say that a2 merc auras/item auras eliminates the need for those auras from paladin.

oops. wrong quote.
