In Diablo 3, becoming a maverick is a good choice, but not secure. Have a brave teammates can reduce your possibility to shreds by the monster, but also will not hinder your game trip. Fortunately, in the shelter world, there are many people willing to take risks, in order to destroy the sanctuary of the world to fight the devil."Hordes of demons raging in the shelter of the world, some brave alone a man to fight the forces of the devil, although their courage is unquestioned, but they are also isolated in the dark looking for a ray of hope, because the lone solitary wolves are often obtained only last an inevitable outcome: corpses, rotting, crow's dinner.

Each follower has their own plans and battle the grounds, you will fight side by side with them on the road getting to know their stories. You must complete the rescue of their task, because during the game, you need them to help you get through some of the roads. Even the new game, you need to repeat these tasks, although you can’t always get a new or additional follower.
Followers of them are battle-hardened veteran, and as the battle gradually upgrade their skills. And together they fought, they would also like you'll gain experience and to provide you with new equipment and change the appearance, you can also choose when they want to upgrade them to learn new skills.

Overall, followers can develop and customize the content more, you can give them equipment, and select a different mix of skills to match your play. Followers is your companion in this world, not just pets. Followers is not the central figure in the story line, they are rich storyline elements. They gave us more about the world of the story, as well as their personalities and backgrounds. Followers are not a major part of the game balance. Them in order to make the single player mode, normal difficulty experience more cooperative and the presence of secondary storyline. So they in multiplayer games and the importance of under difficult will be greatly reduced.
They can be equipped with a variety of props and weapons, including specific types of weapons, shields, rings, necklaces. You can always use better equipment to replace the existing items, so they will be more powerful. When they tore the monster because of you, Kenshi or after killing, please bear in mind them.
