Bug Description:
Just tamed a T4 Bearer since I read some time ago that their nerf was reversed.
Well, turns out it wasn’t, or at least Rethrous the Burdened didn’t get the changes. Here’s a screenshot:
As you can see, this Bearer has approximately the same HP stats as a Cimmerian Berserker, but we all know how low his damage multiplier is. The Cimmerian Berserker has a 100% spawn rate, but T4 Bearers are kinda difficult to find. This nerf is too much!
It is true that Bearers shouldn’t be overpowered - they’re intended to be nothing more than item transport helpers - so, of course, their damage modifier must be low. However, this huge HP nerf makes them almost useless. We won’t give our precious resources to someone who will lose them on the go. And, as I’ve already mentioned, T4 Bearers are less common than the best T4 fighters in the game. In my view, the HP (and all the other stats in general) should be proportional to the exclusivity of the thrall and their type. So, to sum up, I think this nerf is needed but not as hard as it is now.
My advice: try to make it really hard for us to choose between a T4 Bearer and a T4 Fighter. This should apply to Dancers and Archers as well.
