Hi everyone, I'm considering buying my toons more merc slots from the Marketplace. FUNCTIONALLY speaking, is there any reason to have more than 4 total? Don't the J5 healer, tank, cast DPS, and melee DPS all function the similarly or do some of the legendary mercs have bonus abilities? Just trying to figure out if/why I would need more than 4 if I don't care about switching the skin as much as the role. Thank you again!
My main and alts have 3-4 slots per toon, I run 3-4x healer Merc Slots on each. Why? When merc healer dies, instead of waiting 5 mins, just dismiss that merc and pop another (I believe there’s a 30s or so window) When I’m done xping I just run to pok and refill the healers I dismissed. Also no extra abilities for legendary mercs, just a skin
Mind blown, I never realized the timer was for that specific merc., I always assumed it was for the mercs in general! Thanks!
Until recently, I didn't either. But someone left my group the other night and we found ourselves without a healer. It seems convient to be able to switch the roles quickly when people have to drop. I hate having to go back to PoK just for a merc.
If you have multiple say healer mercs you can also flip through them when 1 gets OOM instead of having to wait on it to regen
Thanks, that's really useful to know too! So if I got the 5 slot pack on the Marketplace I could dedicate one or two to tank, one to DPS, and the rest to healer probably...
