Yea, good thing the title says it, because your post, even though it is short, is barely readable.

Well, the AI would need to be improved before this could even work half-way right..the monk henchies don't do enough work as it is, add in an MM henchie saccing his/her health every now and then to heal the minions would result in death, henchies are just not smart enough for this.

/notsigned until AI is vastly improved.

There is no area in guild wars where a minion master is required. There are quite a few where a minion master is eaither dead weight (not enough bodies) and when the ele boss in Raisu Palace has his sliver armor hit a party member when its triggered by the minions, the party member is going to die. So MMs actually make that part harder, and I quite often have one of the NPCs die to sliver armor.

Now if your style of play requires you to be in a party with an MM for success, maybe you should get better at playing guild wars.

Illusion henchie = worthless, but he's still in the game...

This has been suggested before, last time was just a couple of days ago, that thread got locked just because it had been suggested before.

I'd like to point something out to you guys. The games AI is actually VERY good, coordinated spikes by the zaishan, etc. The henchmen are just a little dumbed down so that people will generally look for other people to play with. I don't have the quote or even nkow with 100% certain that it was actually said, but a friend once told me that Jeff Strain has stated in the past that they could make an absolutely great healer bot, but then everyone would take it and not a normal human monk, thus the healers etc are SUPPOSED to be a bit inferior to people. Stated or not, I firmly believe it.

I don't even think henchmen are smart enough as it is! With an MM henchy, you'd be taking AIs to another decade, a monk couldnt heal everyone+mm whod either be constantly spamming BotM or not use it at all and let all his minions die in one crappy heap. He'd probobly be so stupid to not use BotM until his minions are dead, as most henchmen do stupid things like that. No, with an MM henchie we'd all die. Maybe in 5 years .
