And I agree with Numa Pompilius. PvE skills make a LOT of difference. I always carry Pain Inverter and "Finish Him!", which leaves me a third optional PvE slot that I choose depending on the area/mission I'm going to do. Ever tried killing a mob of Jotuns in HM? A true pain in the ***, but bring some minions, swarm the Jotun, cast Pain Inverter: one Giant Stomp and he's dead instantly. Do not tell me you can do that faster without PvE skills, because then you're simply lying.

But now seriously, there are NO reasons, not a single 1 good reason for increasing the number of heroes per player. "I want my game eaaazierrr" is not a good reason.
And at the same time there are many strong reasons Against it.

Anet should better concentrate at making GW a better multiplayer game.

Thankfully the devs are better at game design than the "I want moar easy" masses, and are doing it right with setting balance and power level of henchmen (builds far from optimal) and heroes (all custom builds except imba pve skills). And thankfully they go the right direction with GW2 reducing the number of npc companions to just 1.

The same game designers that keep creating childish gimmiks in hope to keep some players in there game, M.o.X

The are not the gods of game design you think they are or they think they are, in the grand scale of things there pretty poor.

either way your living in a dream world once the US economy crashes you can wave goodbye to ArenaNet and there game.
