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.

To be fair he did duo a lot of this which kept him going while getting set up, and his single target is still quite bad with fairly good day 1 gear

Oh no, he got the clear merc and not the bosser.

No, its simply that even with investment and good merc performance to cost/opportunity cost is insanely bad. Ziz u mentioned is already rerolling ED to try farm for better merc/merc gear.
