Re:Can someone explain why merc clerics refuse to heal the puller?

I'm actually working on a new "assist" mechanic for mercs right now. Maybe you guys have some ideas. It will be optional (a toggle on the merc manage window) with an "assist" button. Basically for tank mercs, it will open up all non-mezzed NPCs currently on the group enemy list as targets, and the merc will consider them valid targets until they are dead.

For healer mercs, I'm thinking the "assist" call would open up all friendly targets as heal targets until they're all over some % of health or a timer (say 30 seconds) expires? What do you guys think?

I'm also considering making a slash command that allows the group leader or main assist to call for assist on all mercs in the group.
