I have a Merc/ Traps and to be honest with you its not bad, but it is really slow, with usually little damage. I like Mercs, but the trap set is a bit complicated for me. Almost all the attacks have slow to moderate recharge and things like triage beacon (Not really healing, but a slightly faster recharge of health and endurance) and seeker drones and a few other seems pretty useless. Also with no support for the hanchmen it gets kinda annoying trying to keep them alive. Traps are good if you want to attack a lot your self, but if you want to maily support henchmen go for something like force fields or dark miasma. Personally i like Poison for the great debuffs and support. But i mean its all personal prefrence. I did hear that Trip Mine in Traps is supposed to be pretty cool. :)
BTW: Sorry i don't have any pics of them :\

I gotta say having made a traps MM I would not reccomend it to anyone, just a weak set (IMO), my main objections to it are that you have to get to close to the enemy to use most of the attacks or attack them and then run away, both strategies are very anti-mastermind as MMs don't have much health and are made to hide behind their troops and let them do the work but with traps you have to get close which means you could get into real danger if you get hit by an immobalize or hold. Hit and runs don't really work with masterminds because your pets will just attack them any way unless you keep telling them to go into passive mode.
And pets do not change their looks dramatically when upgraded, I havent had a mercs MM but I would guess they may get a bigger gun? for example of how little the changes are; when upgraded all that happens to robot pets is that they get a red light on each shoulder.
