and IMO will remain just a concept. If we were to introduse the sidekick option that would be infringing on the sort of CH niche. Plus if anyone should get something like that it should be the SL.

why SL?

a squad leader is not a two person job...

yes but if anyone is gonna have controll over a decent level NPC(s) it would be the SL. If their specials worked on the NPCs........It would make SL rather usefull actually

I don't care about a high level npc, I just want a npc with a high ham and decent resists.

My sidekick would be a tank.

And how it would screw CH's... I dont see how. Non CH's can hold 1 creature where CH's can hold 3...

Hate to break it to you, but we have this ability already. They are just faction pets is all. They certainly haven't hindered CH or SL in any way either. All these "my buddy" pets would be are nonfaction NPC versions of what we already have. Still wont make or break SL or CH.



And if "it would make SL rather useful", it would have already done so.

I'm not saying that faction pets in their current incarnation would be usefull to SL but mebbe a beefed up version. And I have to thank you for the ever so slight pandering tone of your post. Are you just having a bad day or are you usually like that?
