MM Henchmen upgrade

[Vanex]

Hello,

 in beta patch:

• Henchmen upgrade end costs have been reduced from 22.75 to 11.375

 

I'd suggest:

• Henchmen upgrade -> auto:   once acquired, every summoned pet has upgrade installed

I am with you but there is a very vocal segment of the player base that feels this is tactical in some fashion. It was covered ad nauseam on the masterminds board in last two weeks.

I could see an argument for, if you have pets of a particular rank already upgraded when you summon more (i.e., replacing a single Battle Drone) the pets already summoned 'spread' their upgrades to the new pet(s). So you could summon two tier-1 pets, or one tier-2 pet, and have them inherit their upgrades from existing pets, but the tier-3 pet, or resummoning all three tier-1 or both tier-2 pets would need to be upgraded manually.

Maybe fix the issues why people wouldn't want their pets upgraded?

 

Then you could make it auto.

Doesn't this already happen if you have differently upgraded pets and zone with them?  I recall having to respawn minion tier pets inside a mission and then zoning out (with exit mission button) to have all three get the most upgraded ones' upgrades as well.

I like the upgrades being manual because you don't have to reapply. This alone makes it infinitely better than your secondary set anyway - it'd be much more fun if I didn't have to spam AM over and over for example. Just once per map/death defeat would be awesome kthx.
