NPCs & Enemies NPC Party Members

With the addition of NPC attacks, I thought it'd be interesting if you could actually take an NPC around with you to help you fight. However, NPCs on their own can't really take hits, so it'd also be cool if you could give them armor to protect them and make their attacks more effective. The limit would be that they could still only use their standard weapon.

You know, I was thinking of making a summoner sub class type thing that relies on the strategic use of people who can die. That way you will need to think about what you're doing rather than focusing on dodging while your invincible minions do the work.

Perhaps instead of adding the items directly to them you could add the armor/weapon upgrade type things to a furniture item in their house.

Something like this would make for interesting gameplay in my opinion but I'm not sure if it would be a viable addition to terraria.

Eh, just a few thoughts I had.
