I'd love to see changes to followers, but with the current item types they can equip, i don't see much room for sets.
What i would like to see:
* remove "Str, Int, Dex" replace it by "Power". Having three stats lost its value long time ago. These days, its only annoying, especially gearing followers
* allow all three followers when playing solo
* give them more equipment slots
* increase their power and give them some more abilities with different elements, so gearing them with the right combination of legendarys makens sense.
I'd love to see gearing my team as a part of progression.
I love the idea of "Power"!!!! I also love the idea of all three followers being used as mentioned, maybe the Azshara set bonus's(sorry for the butcher, if it is lol) can become a follower trinket instead? And rather than occasionally having them fight, they ALWAYS are present?
Best part about your comment is the last part though, which everyone seems to lose lately. This game is about progression, not just a mindless GR grind with groups.
Follower Class specific sets would be cool. So a spear & shield, staff & amulet and crossbow & ring I guess? Tbh they could even make 3pc sets of just weapon + amulet + ring or 4pc sets that give an extra bonus for not using unity. Don't ask me what the effects would be though, extra cdr? Kormac summons templar followers? Hex becomes pigs (20% damage)? Arrows can pierce/bounce?
Or an even crazier idea, set upgrades class with a new set of skills, Templars = Paladin, Enchantress = Sorcerer, Rogue = Assassin (c'mon the d2 fans would go spastic for it)
Folloers should have most of the gear slots, so we can use more gems on them, and even augment there gear too. Plus sets would allow for things to mix up combos with the class ur playing and the follow u pick.
BUT! I would like to add Followers need to be account wide so we only have to gear the 3 once, rather then gear them for ever new char we play, just is a pain in the ass and boring and un-fun play style.

While I can see the logic here, some classes will use a follower differently than others, for example some classes may not use unity and one may prefer a thunder fury over an azurewrath

Link me proof of people who have cleared higher than GR65 Solo W/O using unity please. Thanks
LOL, GR65+ you usually have to fish for without Unity rings, usually F+R and CoE in cube:

Dam now I have to make a design
So the set will replace the 8 skills and as usual the follower item can unlock them all
Kormac : paladin shield + ring
Smite (stun bash) or upgraded charge
Offense aura or defense aura
Zeal or vengeance (slap a COE on him)
Conversion or Life tap (extra loh for team)
Enchantress : necromancer wand + ring
Summon skeleton warrior or archer
Revive or golem
Iron maiden or resist debuff
Poison nova or teeth (stun?)
Rogue : assassin claw (:p) + ring
Slow trap or damage trap
Summon shadow or shuriken armor
Damage hit or debuff hit
Upgraded smoke screen or throwing darts (or an insane aps increase for the assassin only)
Blizzard should hire me I'm just saying
