He is as useful as any dervish hero (aka, not much), but more cool.

He goes around following you like a pet or a henchman.

You can use him anytime, yes.

Do the other forms make him another profession, or is it just a new look?

He's useful to a low-level character going for Survivor who wants protection but doesn't want to bother guildies about it.

I personaly don't use mox. To big and can block vision at the worst times. Use Meloni if you want a derv

Good hunting

edit..if Mox is the only hero available the answer changes to yes! Way better than a henchie

The most useful thing about MOX is how easy he is to get.

I think like most heroes, it depends on the build you give the big knucklehead

I always wondered why is that better than a N/whatever that frees their elite and secondary to, say, take off hexes, which are particularly dangerous for physicals.

1. more armor (also take the +10 or +5+5+5 while enchanted insignia)
2. barely require selfheals due to mystisism and pious renewal.
3. spams party heals

necro's overall just die faster, while i never had a d/n die on me.

MOX is a Dervish Hero.
http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Hero - for info on Heroes, in general.

You can use it anytime, instead of a henchman. If you do want to use it, equip it with a good Scythe and a proper set of Runes & Insignias.

MOX is more useful if you want to have a body blocker i guess... But it could also be bad since he might just block your view... Ovreall I would say he is the most unique hero there is.

Hes a dervish, he has no special ablilities. Would you normally have a dervish hero? If so take him.
