ArenaNet talk:Guild Wars 2 suggestions/Companions and Henchies in the Continuous World

OK, this isn't as difficult to program as you might think. It probably wouldn't use the character's name, at any rate, but would be determined by a pseudo-random sequence generator seeded by the character's unique ID (if there is one, but this sort of thing is pretty common practice in databases). That would pretty much remove any possibility of exploiting it, as well. I don't have any opinion on the merits of the suggestion itself, though. -- Sirius (talk) 06:34, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

This suggestion is simply neat. "Randomized" henchmen = awesome. Ratys 21:49, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

How would this effect the skill bars of the henchmen? Would they have all the same skills per profession? How would that be dealt with? Just curious.--Will Greyhawk 15:09, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Skill bar would be determined by build. For instance, brawler henchies and guardian henchies are both warriors but wield different weapons and have different skill sets. Level could also affect the skill bar by, perhaps upgrading it every 10 levels, for instance.--Shai Halud 15:39, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
