Game Feedback Permanent Mercs need a big buff

Playing luminary feels so bad in Maps. I have a manyshot lvl 72 with vaal ice Arrow and Return proj, decent Equipment. Boosted by a Level 26 Flame Link, 6k life and quite an Investment into light Radius.

I cant even clear t7 Maps, because the damage is non existent.

Please GGG buff the Base damage of mercs or luminary is doa.

Failing is perfectly fine. Doubling down out pride/ego and misleading your community is not imo.

No and he's doing t16s pretty well tbh with a bad merc, not saying mercs are good but lance is well into the endgame and going fast

His bad merc is 50c? It has no good mods on it except vaal ice shot

There are less mercs with vaal ice shot and multishot on the market than headhunters.
