I never know what skills they have. I don't want to keep checking wiki every time I want to find out. When you drag your mouse over the hero or when you open party search, it should show each henchman's set of skills.

I would love this. Admittedly it's because I'm too lazy to wiki every henchman's build to find the best companions for my hero setup whenever I change character and/or campaign, but it would be soooo nice to be able to mouse over them in an outpost (or even talk to them like you do the new hench in the GH) and see their skills right there in game. /signed

The talk-to option like in GH/HA would be the better suggestion I think, but yeah, good idea. I have to admit though that I use the same henchies all the time anyway.

I often use the same henchies for ages simply for habit but forgetting what skills they use and ignoring the others, than I sometimes stop being lazy and check, making me discover I'm not choosing for the best. So, directly seeing their skills would solve situations like this.

I hate checking wiki all the time too. Specially when you have like....a BUNCH of henchies to choose from (factions)

see....I've always been to lazy to check wiki for the henchman builds...I just kinda go out and see what they use xD


However...this would be useful as I might actually check if it was implemented and not go against destroyers with fire ele henchman...

What's wrong with that? Cynn's Meteor Shower knockdowns are useful in any event, and, if you're concerned about their resistance to fire damage, Winter says "hi".

I love the touch to /msg or announce their skeelz in the party

I would assume the skills/attribs pinged would depend on if HM/NM was selected?

Well if the Dev's ever troll on through here id say this is what they call a landslide decision. Unanimous in every sense of the word.

Guru Nation has spoken. Now make it so.

I would prefer talking to them then some kind of mouse over function. It'll be quicker and easier to implement that way. /signed (it's not like there's a reason not to).
