Following Henchmen

Hello, I assume people have wrote about this but I wanted to write about it myself, just by the name you probably know what I'm writing about. Following Henchmen. I'm sick and tired of paying 400 crowns for a 110 hard hitting henchmen, I think once you buy them they follow you around like a Pirate101 companion until either you or the henchmen die. So this is what I mean, you're questing and uh oh, you have to fight a boss. Well you went out to Walmart last night and picked up a 20 dollar card for crowns, you buy a level 110 storm henchmen for 400 crowns and he kills the boss. Lets say the henchmen made it out of the fight with 2K health. You're walking to the turn in and you see your henchman walking next to you like a P101 companion, lets say the next fight a guy kills him. When you get out of the fight your henchman is no longer there. I think it's a great idea since it won't make us waste crowns. Let me know what you think :)

That's a great idea! I agree with this, but many possible issues could arise for the KingsIsle Corperation from this. If you bought a level 110 henchman, and lets say you were questing through marleybone, obviously the level 110 henchman will completely obliterate the bosses and carry you through the questline very quickly. Wizard101 exists as a game to challenge you and to make you think of your next move. If we allowed minions to follow you, that would remove the challenge all the way through the worlds! Not to mention, if there was a self-following minion, it would be hard to limit their use in PVP!
Just a few thoughs!

How about restrictions to what level of henchmen you can buy at a certain level? I think that would work out best.

I think this is a great idea! Because if you spend alot of crowns on a powerful henchman, you will finish the battle faster.I personally think it costs too many crowns for a one~use thing.So,this really is a great idea!I really hope KI will add this to the game!
