Oh, also PTH. (They are kinda tied together on the HF.)
weee my dream might come true :) too bad Junction doesn't x-fer the Elbs too.

Now all they need is permanent seekers attacked to their bow.

1) the damage seems about half that of an equal level SF
2) it doesn't seem to ever double hit
3) it can still miss vs evasion
So I'm thinking it still needs more lovin'.. The kind only Jon can give.

"it doesn't seem to ever double hit"
it's possible there's a bug; this isn't a special-cased limitation I added for the HF. what's your test case?

Fighting deifeln's character Oy with my character's Karn and Storage Vault IV. Both my characters are just 20 dex mage/enchanter teams.
I'm getting double hit when I attack a low HF, but the minion also has Helm of Clearsight and junction.

Cancel that, finally got a double hit.. I suppose I had a string of bad luck.

So it looks that if you junction with BGs, and assuming double hits, the damage can at least match the mage familiars. It also has more hp, no weakness to amf, and isn't targetted by seekers. Its downside is its P2H seems low so decent evasion/dbs just kills it. Decent balance.

Wow...I got a citation :o)
The HF on Oy is there only as a one-round meat shield (it is low level). I sold my large tat.
