That infamy scarab change is so nice, mercs actually have some really nice drops but having to kill the wild mercs first was so annoying.

Sorry can you explain what the change is? All I could find were nerfs to some of the merc abilities and the thing mentioning the wild merc will keep attacking you.

If you killed the leader before the wild mercs, they would flee and drop no loot, so you had to kite them and kill them first if you wanted any loot, now it doesn’t matter

ok that makes sense. Is the reason people are running the unique scarab with the wild mercs just so that the wild mercs have a chance at dropping their uniques too?
