Why?
Only mesmers and warriors use it – warrior doesn’t seem too strong with it at all and with reference to mesmer it’s not the amulet which is the root of the problem.

Only Mesmers and Warriors? Lol….

More like every class uses it.

This kind of mentality some people have is just amazing.

It’s amusing how people support anet destroying build diversity and yelling give me more build diversity at the same time. And yes the mercenary amulet needed to go, but this is probably the worst moment to send it away and incredible lazy fix to mesmer (just like moa of course) while killing quite a number of builds that nobody was complaining about.

Future looks bright

What mentality?

I support build diversity but just like the Celestial Amulet, Merc Amulet offers way too much. The MOA nerf was needed too.

Before you say something like “just cuz mes countered you” or something stupid like that, I have 4 Mesmers and have played class since beta.

Warrior uses merc, rev does too, guards, some Eles with arcane traits, seen a few evasion thiefs running it too and the trap ranger has been a pain in the kitten especially with a longbow and that vine crap.

The amulet itself is so strong there is no point in using other Amulets which doesn’t promote diversity at all.

Ok but if merchenary had to go , also paladin have to go, and i am a paladin user . It has the same issues of Mercenary …. damage and no risk ….

What?

To be honest I thought the issue was because it offers both high power pressure and high condition pressure while maintaining decent defensive capabilities, not because it had toughness and vitality.

A Sage Amulet….. I’m on the wire about that one as it’s heals are only somewhat selective depending on class and don’t provide an advantage against both forms of damage sources.

Toughness negates power, vitality provides more ticks against conditions while heals are somewhat limited to class/build.
