Mercs will be useless and insignificant. Link Skills ?

^weak attempt at bait.

The amount of times I've said I actually play on a different account, including in threads with you, is quite high

I'm not engaging any further because you are awful to have a discussion with

Nah, that's your distorted memory talking. I remember calling you out on it a few times, not you admitting to it. And I know for a fact that others have as well, and you always deflected. I am aware that you have multiple accounts. Some dormant ones going back a couple years, though not banned, just abandoned. I know who you are, but who cares. That's just off-topic banter.

Anyway, that's not the point. Fact is, you were absolutely convinced that Mercs were going to be "complete trash" and "dead on arrival". Arguing with people over mechanics, basically calling them all stupid and unknowledgeable (not just me, by the way). Even now, you cannot bring yourself to say "Yes, I was mistaken and you were right."

It's just funny to me, really, that you were trashing Mercs beforehand and yet secretly play from a different account, with everything hidden away because you actually think it can't be traced back to you. I'm just left wondering what your motivation is. And which is it? Are Mercs good or trash now?

Edit:

Stuff like this is what I'm referring to:

"
Like....it took me over 200 maps to even come across ONE cruel mistress. Now add randomness of skills and randomness of skill supports to that, and we are looking at probably less than 1 in 100 cruel mistresses (or 20000 maps at that rate) to even get a chance at decent support layout on the correct skills.

I am absolutely positive that merc AI is going to off-the-charts stupid. As in....walking straight into sirus storms or shaper beam stupid.

These things are going to be total and absolute trash for probably a good 50% or more of the endgame.

I know its unproductive to be debbie downer before the launch, but I am anticipating and looking forward to the feedback frenzy that GGG gets on stupid Mercenary behaviors.

^personal attacks abound, nice. I'm betting that post is not going to stick around long...

Do I really need to repeat the very first line of the post you originally quoted....which openly said I was exactly 100% wrong? I said that they turned out exactly the opposite of what I initially thought.

I ate the bait too much already.
