Anyone hear about this?  Apparently in their 15th x-pac (  ACK! ) they're adding player-hiriable NPCs so you can take-on encounters with a little help.  Anyone still follow this game enough to know if this to counter the lack of ability to find groups, or just a "nifty feature" that'll be largely meaningless?

The past cannot be changed. The future is yet within your power.

I have a friend who plays rather actively with his wife still.  I know they don't have much trouble finding groups but they have been on the same server and max level for 6+ years now.

Hirelings may be useful for filling in gaps for the shit ton of single-group instances in the game now, but I doubt anyone will be raiding with them?  What ever the case I'm guessing these things ain't got shit on the eqmacro bot armies a lot of people are using now a days.
