Mechanist

You must be joking! If you'll run far enought, arak will apear at the hex (is there hexes too?) where is your character.

 

This applies for all followers, though I think Richard Vorak was thinking more about their usefulness in a combat situation given how slow they are.

 

Slow and weak. Really pitiful damage compared to mechanical ones. I've been dragging a medical arachnid along with me for quite some time, but the stupid thing didn't heal me even once.

 

True, Med. Arak. is absolutely useless in combat.

Interesting. But as I have said, when Arak apeared in my hex, he always healed me. Btw. My Mechanist is now really like a Arcanum god. Unfortunately he is VERY poor fighter. But now he has more than 10 companions. Including 6 Automatons and Med Arak. I just love looking to my little army.
