Which Hench Do You Use?
Texas Flood
I know a lot of people hench in Elona so I was just wondering which hench you normally use?
Implied that you bring 3 heroes with you so that leaves room for four hench.

Generally, I bring the Motivation, Khim/Mhenlo (I like to leave my heroes for damage), Cynn, and Devona. I'd prefer to have the brawler over Cynn, but unfortunately the brawler doesn't show up anymore.
Henchie selection is kind of lame though, but I guess since you have heroes, you don't need that many different henchies to select from.

My ideal setup, in general, is
Sousuke - Interrupt/Fire
Zhed - Interrupt/Fire
Olias - MM

Mhenlo
Khim
Sogolon
Devona
I work Norgu and Zenmai in sometimes. Koss rarely. Morgahn and Rangers sometimes. Wish I could use them all.

I always try to bring Khim, Odurra, and Herta along whenever possible. They have the best lines of any henchmen (even beating out Cynn and Lukas, which I never would have thought).
As for others, I usually take Sologon, since most of my characters don't have a Paragon hero, and his buffs can be handy, and of course Mhenlo when I need a second monk. Whenever I'm on Istan I try to take the warrior hench (name?), her lines are great as well. "Well, if I screw up it's not like you'll be able to yell at me."

Hmm, Henchmen are usually Cynn, Eve and Mhenlo (or as I call him, Mhenlo the Noob). The 4th usually changes depending on which heroes I'm required to bring on the quest / mission.
As for Heroes I usually take Koss, and Dunkoro also. The third depends on the situation. If I want interrupts I'll take Margrid or Norgu, the tubby little bundle of fun that he is, often I will take Sousuke and sometimes Olias (to use as MM)
Talking about lines...I just love Sousuke's "That blew up good. That blew up REAL good!"

-Mhenlo if it's a tough area, otherwise probably Devona
Heroes I bring vary a lot. I started to like the paragon one.

Well i normally take Jin, Talhkora and Olias Heros and then Khim, The Holy Hench (cant think of her name), Cynn, and Eve. Sniff, i miss Lina she was the ultimate henchie
Some Guru Named Kai
As long as I have my buddies, Mhenlo and Cynn, it's all good. I also bring Kihm and the Illusion hench when I'm playing a melee character.

Unless i'm levelling their pets and unless a quest/mission needs a specific hero it's
Koss... chopping duties n pet stuff
Jin... barrage, interupts, pet stuff
Melonni... apply poison, bleeding and deep wound.. and pet stuff.
Khim
Mhenlo
Sogolon
Herta
4 level 20 pets even at only 4-5 beast mastery adds a lot of damage. with call of haste and call of protection added as well.

Me (Monk) - depends on situation, usually prot
Heroes:
Olias (MM) - when im lazy
Zenmai (Temple Strike) - when i know ill face an evil caster boss
Jin and/or Margrid (Magebane interrupt) - same reason as Zenmai (two if its total emergency and i dunno how to kill it, one goes Broad head, the other Magebane if so)
Zhed + Sosouke (Searing Flames) - pure damage
Rest: no use
Hench:
Holy Hench (dont like Devona; she healsigs too much while under pressure)
Fire Hench
Healer Hench - depends on the situation, if i go active prot or smite
Prot Hench - depends on the situation, if i go active prot or smite
Illusion Hench - must must
Rest: no use
(sometimes i actually kick both Monk henchies and go with my solo healing and just take the Earth Hench along with Eve, but that only works in easy areas [anything before desolation usually], and if im not lazy/in a horrible mood)

My heros only play their primaries. Don't like Dunkoro (we just never hit it off
) but Tahlkora is fun. Zhed tends to get in my way a lot, but he tries, you know? The assassin hero - omg, what was Anet thinking! She is as useless as tits on a boar! Jin -- now Jin I really like. Arid sense of humor I can relate with and damned fine ranger, especially armed with Barrage from the outset.
Henches (the usual line-up, subject to constant change as the situation or mood warrants):
Devona for her knockdowns (which is funny since I had little use for her in either of the first chapters).
Been trying Odurra but am not sure if she's really all that good (yes, I know mesmer-craft is a silent but deadly one).
Kihm is a good healer -- superbly better than her Tyrian or Canthan 'sisters'. At least she passed her classes at Monk University!
Sogolon - well, I just like to watch angel-boy's wings unfurl.

So far I ran mesmer, warrior dervish, monk, monk hench combination most of the time.
I tend to take the Earth hench sometimes.
Heroes depend on quest / mission (or just leveling).

For henchies, I usually go with Devona, Gehraz, the Mesmer, and the Earth henchlady. I don't like Cynn since I have bad memories of her messing with aggro. :P

For heroes it depends on my class...
1 Warder
1 Nuker
1 MM
...when I play with my ele.
2 rangers
1 MM
... when I play with my ranger or my para (no other char in Elona yet... not far at least).
But that's a general build: I may change it when the mission/area requires a specific build.
And for the henchies:
Devona
Khim
Menhlo
Sologon (motivation dude)
or the Earth ele instead of Devona when I gotta take Koss with me for the mission (or when I have to take one hero monk, then I kick Mehnlo).
And Cynn, alias Lady Firestorm is a big no-no for me: I'd rather go with 7 people in the team.

This is what I use when I'm alone:
Olias - MM
Dunkoro - Heal spec, minor interrupting
Jin - Barrage/Interrupt
Kihm
Herta
Gehraz*
Devona*
*I'll sub these two for Sogolon and Aidan/Cynn if I need a ranged group. Cynn really is a last resort though because her scattering is annoying.

bamm bamm bamm
It completely depends what I'll be facing and/or what the mission requires. For a long time I would take Zhed and Sousuke as dual searing flames/interrupt, but in Torment I found that only served to multiply groups with AoE damage via CthT. At the moment I don't have a particularly good selection of ele skills anyway. I'm rubbish with ele's
. Mind Blast worked pretty good I suppose. Zhed has been known to blind dervish bosses (Blinding Surge ftw). Margrid as Broadhead/interrupt for evil, evil ruby djinns/ele bosses (she's gotten me out of more scrapes than I can remember). I <3 Margrid. Tahlkora is pretty much permanently in the team as prot. Norgu has been known to come as Psychic Distraction + other interrupts. Olias likes to mm, and has recently taken a liking to Jagged Bones. I don't really use Dunkoro either, but if I have to he comes as Healing Light healer/interrupt. I usually do his job for him. The henchies I take depend on the heroes I choose/have to bring.
Kit Engel
Depends on who I'm on, really... I generally take Tahlkora, Koss, and Jin for a decently well rounded combo, then take Khim, Devona, Sogolon, and Gehraz as the henchies.
On my elementalist, I take Zhed, Sousuke... and everyone gets Searing Flames/Glowing Gaze! Yay! Morgahn is thrown in for good measure.
On my necro... everyone's lineup goes something like AOE hex, FoC, Desecrate, Defile...
On my ritualist, I bring Olias (OoP), Master of Whispers (OoA), and Tahlkora (E-drain boonprot), and then grab Devona, Sogolon, Gehraz, and Aidan.
...I seem to have a rather bad trend with the builds I use. XD

Most of the time I use Searing Flames/Glowing Gaze on Zhed and Soldier's Fury/"They're on Fire!" on sir general Morgahn, sir. Third hero is whatever fits, plus 2 healer henches (Mhenlo is must to have!) of course trusty Sogolon and I usually take ol'good Devona just because I like her quotes about idiots

when I am by myself I bring ducko (mo/rt) and zhed (water--ice, slows em down)...and madgrid (poison and crippling)....henchies---monk, paragon, devona, and the illusionist (conjure phantasm!)....I am playing a mes/r right now----mostly dom.
When I start playing my smiting monk I will rethink who I will bring.
My ele is playing with my husband so we each bring heros depending on what is necessary for the quest/mission (though we like to leave koss behind).
