Gatling:
Considering the forced real-time combat of most important areas, NPC followers need to be removed. I said it before, I am saying it again.  Having swarms of NPCs to do your lazy work in a multiiplayer game needs to be taken out so bad. Just like stealing needs to be reworked or removed, it doesn't really belong in a multiplayer game (while I think Gambling could be useful ingame, just not sure what we could do with it or really think we should devote such work to such a possibly 'minor' skill compared to the litany of other unbalanced crap to deal with).

I think NPC followers are fine in theory, but right now they can just be switched onto auto pilot - you don't need to watch your back because your mercs will sense anyone entering the map with their magic powers. I don't think followers should be able to attack NPCs or players without explicit instructions - players should have to attack them first.

I also dislike forced realtime, but with the current TC that's never going to change. You can't have turn based in an area where any idiot can just wander in mid town and get trapped in a fight they have no interest in - I am still utterly baffled as to why the biggest element of PvP is in towns of all places.

DocAN.:
Ill say it Again - 1 Merc for 1 Alt no more !!! 
This one who love to have own PET will have it, and it wont ruin the pvp.

I dont want to see it again:

Badger:
Is anyone else seeing a problem there that doesn't involve mercs?

Slaver Snipe:
Let's just wait for wipe and see what changes have been made, and if it isn't enough making them start out weak as fuck and actually require weeks of leveling to get good is a simple solution. Especially if you can resurrect them but for the base price multiplied by the level, I would still be a merc leader if that came to be but i doubt gangs would have many merc leader alts.
