Henchies for TA

I don't think it's fair lately you need a 4 full man group for TA. In a RA group we won 10 in a row and 2 guys left, leaving me and the other behind with no future of TA'ing in that group. That's ridiculous...

At least they should add the option to recruit henchies. I'm not gonna get into specifics of how they should do it but they should on their own impliment that into the game to make it fair for low number parties. Henchies are obviously weaker than normal players usually but it fills a spot on your team, and they're smarter when it comes to targeting, too.

omfg, this happened to me again!!!

Does anyone else think the henchie idea would be nice?! It's only fair for some parties that can't get full group parties.

It's almost an unwritten law that once you win your 10 in RA the group disbands. Sometimes your random group of 4 is good enough to go the distance against elaborate TA groups, but that doesn't happen a whole lot.

If people leave and you really want to do TA, then go to TA and find some more people. Honestly, what are the odds of you winning a single TA match with 2 or 3 henchies?

Henchies at least go for called targets...

Henchies also see reckless haste and SS on them and will run next to you and furiously attack.

If they let henchies there would be more people just grabbing henchies and trying them out.... in result people who makes a henchie TA would easily get steam rolled over an OK team

I cant possibly imagine how you're gonna win with ever 1 henchie in TA. Yes i did manage it in HA with 4 henchies.... but in TA? Uh, what every single player does is very important. Im not saying you wouldnt be able to beat a team with mending warrior... but other than that, how? Henchie monk is gonna get owned horribly. Henchie warrior will get owned by one SS as mentioned. Ele henchie.. oh man he's gonna firestorm everyone *shudders*.. just horrible.

I know how it is when u win 10 in RA n cant get to TA cause someone quits. But does it matter? Just start in TA, pick 1-2 more n go. TA is competitive, and henchway would make no sense. The only, only time henchie makes sense if you're inside TA, and someone quits.. and u cant get random. But even then people would abuse it by entering in 4, winning 1 game, 3 leave so u can play the rest w henchies. So, uh, no.

On the one hand I've stopped taking PUGs for any form of PvP, so I don't have that problem anymore. On the other hand if you do implement henchs in TA, I would win there more often.

Henchies would just offer a spot since Anet stupidly made it so TA needs a full party of 4, or else I would never suggest this.

If you don't think henchies help why do you complain?! GREAT for you! Don't take henchies and win against people who have henchies according to your philosiphy... It's just for small parties or parties who were full but have quitters. Give me a break people if you care so deeply you don't have to get henchies. Go use SS and own them I don't care. If monks get owned I don't care. At least they're there to do something. I've seen worse monks in RA and TA than Healer Henchies so don't even go there. Lately the arenas have been taken over by such horrid noobs who don't even know how to select called targets its sad.

I want to run TA henchway ^_^

IIRC when someone leaves in the middle of the match and you win, then the next match the spot gets filled does it not? I coulda swore that happened to me a couple of times..

in TA you need to wait till some random idiot tries to enter a fight solo, and he can be put with a 3 man team waiting for an additional player..
Not sure if thats still how it works, but it used to be like that.

PS
I play random arenas a lot and have got teams which could easily reach 5 consecutives in TA, also beating guild teams and such.
