I hope they add some more summons thoe.

Yep. More summon skills will be added in the coming months. I'm pretty sure GGG realizes how many people enjoy this style of play.

I really hope so since summon necro on d2 was my favourite thing to play, so fun having minions owning it up ^^

Does anyone know if they plan to have mercenaries in PoE?

Mercenaries were not mentioned anywhere in sheldue , manifesto or anywhere, so probably not in release.

Hmm yea I shoulda mentions they changed that in the patch.. but i got in after the patch so didn't know about.

No mercaneries as far as I know iether.

Looking at casts they need to change summons behaviour before sumoner would be valid way of playing.
These zombies and spectres are lost as soon as you move 1 screen,which makes summoning them pointless since you have to get copses FIST before getting summons in action.

And they dont seem to be very active / are too slow in engaging combat.
