1. Mhenlo for teaching us to love Alesia!
2. Lina for doing such a wonderful job of protecting me, except during a battle.
3. Stephan for just being steady and reliable.
4. Orion, since the patch, world champion party pooper!
5. Claude and Dunham, er ... I think Dunham ... er
6. Little Thorn for giving 'em the axe!
7. Reyna and Aidan, steady damage, and usually survive!

I wish she was a henchmen

My favourite is the protector

Night says best henchie is Prince Rurik.

Reyna - because she always manages to stay alive and often solos enemies better than little thom.

master koa · Dec 22, 2005, 05:47 AM // 05:47

Hmm best hench ever. Dangit why cant Glint be a hench in Ring Of Fire because those towers own my poor warriors butt. >Mehnlo=sucksauce<

Sereng Amaranth · Dec 22, 2005, 06:28 AM // 06:28

Cynn, because of her thong.

Amadei · Dec 22, 2005, 08:56 AM // 08:56

Devona is pretty good and when I'm not playing an Elementalist, I usually grab Cynn as well (but then, I'm very fond of NPC Cynn character-wise :P). Reyna has an amazing ability to survive; she's often the last one standing. Healing-wise, Mhenlo and Lina together usually do the job fairly well.

Poor Alesia. She gets no love.

Xion · Dec 22, 2005, 09:04 AM // 09:04

<3 Lina, for she has the same name as my <3

Guillaume De Sonoma · Dec 22, 2005, 09:14 AM // 09:14

Lina by far the best henchie and a healer to boot.

Caged Fury · Dec 22, 2005, 09:35 AM // 09:35

Alesia - sometimes she will heal, sometimes tank, sometimes hang back and try wand enemies to death, and sometimes do nothing. I've lost count of the number times Alesia has :

1. aggro a new mob while we're already engaged in a fight;
2. not heal me when fighting is over, and I have no energy left to heal myself and suffering from a degen (she seems to enjoy watching me die);
3. constantly run back & forth between a dead ally and the rest of the team, not knowing whether to rez dead ally or not (poor, poor confused monk);
4. if she has the courage, she will charge into a mob to rez a dead ally and get killed herself;
5. after being rez, she enjoys standing in a poison pool if there is one nearby;

/sigh

Despite these, Alesia is always my first choice henchie for my party. I like Alesia, because she is so unpredictable...a loose cannon. I find that she provides additional stress and excitement to quests/missions.

Alesia FTW

Yakumo · Dec 22, 2005, 01:07 PM // 13:07

Orion... He makes me look good when I play my Fire Elementalist!

Although, I think I'm starting to pick up some bad habits from him, as I've noticed lately that my fireballs are arriving late and firestorms are raining down on nothing... Who knows, maybe in time I'll get to be as 'good' as him...

lyra_song · Dec 22, 2005, 01:10 PM // 13:10

Little Thom.

true story:

When i first played Ice Caves of Sorrow, i henched it. And knowing nothing about infusion, i tried to do the bonus with just henchies and not being infused.

My run-ins with the mursaat and jades ended up with a lot of the henchmen dead except Little Thom.

He saved my life several times in that mission, so he's always been my fave.

Zephyr Jackson · Dec 22, 2005, 02:15 PM // 14:15

Alesia has no hair, i think she is a lesbo

Whispering Siren · Dec 22, 2005, 02:55 PM // 14:55

Candy Corn Henchmen... you all forgot the candy corn golems!!!

At first, I hated Little Thom because he and Cynn aggroed like crazy in Sorrow's Furnace on one trip. Seriously... if we targeted something that was on the other side of the map (just to announce a boss in close proximity) - off they went!

But then, Little Thom earned some brownie points back... I was in Dragon's Lair (different character) and decided to try all hench (it was late, the place was dead). We zone into the 2nd facet's lair... and all of my hench just run away, except Little Thom. They ran up one of the hills (that you really can't run up) and just kept going - some sort of glitch due to the portal, I don't know. I died, Thom survived and stood by my dead body. Alesia never came back. Thom didn't rez me.

Eh, stupid hench.

fallot · Dec 22, 2005, 03:19 PM // 15:19

Eve, because she gives me energy regen. Dunham is a close second because he casts Empathy on everything he sees

jibikao · Dec 22, 2005, 03:44 PM // 15:44

I think Archer is great. She/he usually stays alive well and does good damage. I always bring the archer.
