It's like they took all the things that they know annoy us and made them henchies. The tengu, the split second interrupt timing--it wouldn't surprise me if they had a wind rider hench in the works.

Tengu good... Wallow thingie bad.

fgarvin · Mar 27, 2006, 03:33 PM // 15:33

Anything with Giant Stomp + Serpent's Quickness would make the best henchie ever....

Tengu henchman was awesome. I love watching them throw their wings out as they run into battle. Rawk!

Didn't really like the big fat necro dinosaur henchman though.

Everyone seems to have gone Kurzhick...

I went for the Underdog and said, why not Luxom?

Now I'm glad I did. I fought those Rot Wallow thingies and I'd REALLY HATE to have those bloated rats as my henchies.

Now Silverwing, I think he was a boss from Prophesies. Nice to see him on the team vs. going toe to toe with him...

Not in my reality.

Lol, Pidgeon henchaman...

Yeah, he creeped me out too. I liked the rot wallow things as well and took one of them along just for kicks, even though I realize they suck, but the avicara is awesome.

IMO the best henches are protector and guardian. The new healer is terrible, especially considering she spams purge signet :/

I agree, but the interrupter should also be added to the list. My Guild has a few very good interrupters, but if I'm stuck with a all Henchie party, the interrupter is gonna be in there somewhere.

If only I could take him to meet Willa.

boxterduke · Mar 27, 2006, 07:14 PM // 19:14

Everytime he makes the sound I think there is a Tengu attacking me.
It is kinda freaky.

As for henches I was impressed from, the ranger interupter on the luxon side and the domination mesmer on the kurz side.

Winterclaw · Mar 27, 2006, 07:36 PM // 19:36

I thought it was neat that there was going to be a tenchu henchman.

I haven't played the luxon side... I'm assuming that's where the interrupter comes from. The Dom hench is ok... he packs cry of frustration and power spike (I think) but it's hard to see how much he contributes exactly.

Gun Pierson · Mar 27, 2006, 10:34 PM // 22:34

Though the bird and I don't understand eachother that well and he gives me the creeps from time to time, I really enjoy his companionship. Better have him as a friend I should say. Wonder what he likes to eat.

Kurzick had henchies that were nonhuman as well.

I think anyone who'se tread through Mineral Springs will have bad memories of these terrifying winged nightmares. The first time I equipped Talon Silverwings, I wasn't aware that he made any grunts. I think the first time I heard it, was during combat. With my health running low, I freaked out and mapped back to the marketplace.... after a second or two, I slapped myself in the chest and said "Dhuurrrrrrrrr, omg I'm an IDIOT!"

After I got my black moa, I went back for talon silverwing. My two birds of prey protect me from dangers afar. When combat gets too hot, they can drop their weapons and fly me back home.... ok maybe not, but that would be funny. lol

Thanks.....

Numa Pompilius · Mar 28, 2006, 01:49 AM // 01:49

Like everyone else (it seems) I hated the Avicara in Prophecies. Damn annoying.

Talon Silverwing, however, was the best fighter henchman of the bunch. He was almost always the last man standing at wipes, and did serious damage to the enemy.

So I love the bastard. Despite his creepy sounds, which, yes, freaked me out the first time I heard them too.

Diablo™ · Mar 28, 2006, 02:02 AM // 02:02

omg its talon silverwing!

Here, you need an avatar ^^

Talon Silverwing · Mar 28, 2006, 02:11 AM // 02:11

Done.

I like the new creature henchies. Makes a nice, but yes, unusual change to the whole henchie outlook.
