Rage of the Mercenaries!

The Rage of the Mercenaries Game Update brings DPS mercenaries and 13 new Hot Zones! Here's a sneak peek at what's coming on June 9th!

DPS Mercenaries!

Healers and tanks not enough? DPS Mercenaries are here!

Now you can add DPS Mercenaries to your arsenal! Mercenaries are NPCs for hire that will aid adventurers in their heroic adventures. They bring extra damage dealing ability to any party they are in and will make a powerful weapon against any enemy. Mercenaries' levels and abilities scale appropriately to your level and they will think and act for themselves with limited player guidance. They're designed for extra support or added damage in PvE encounters.


Small Version | Large Version

See your favorite mercenary liaison and pick up a "Damage" type DPS mercenary which uses physical attacks or a "Hedge Wizard" type DPS mercenary which will cast spells from range.

Did you hear about Bayle Marks? - Antonius Bayle IV, the Ruler of Qeynos, decreed not long ago that mercenaries should receive fair compensation for their time. The Bayle Mark was minted as a standard measure of payment for mercenaries of all levels.
