=Mercenaries=
[[File:Mercholdersmall.png|right]]


Mercenaries are individuals you can hire at various locations throughout Raana.<br><br>
'''OLD PAGE. IGNORE!'''
Hiring a mercenary results in them joining your party and fighting alongside you in combat encounters. As such, mercenaries are only useful when engaging in combat.


If you wish to hire a mercenary, you must pay two costs. An '''upfront, one-time''' payment for the contract - and '''upkeep''' for each day you
let them be your follower.


'''They stay with you until'''
* You can no longer afford to pay their daily upkeep
* You actively dismiss them
* They die in combat


Whatever you do, if your Merc leaves your party - all money paid is non-refundable.
The world of Raana is a dangerous one, and as such, rough individuals who can put a weapon to good use are in high demand. Such individuals are mercenaries, professionals who make a living renting their skill and bravery to the highest bidder. Every character you find in the game is capable of picking up a weapon and using it, but mercenaries are the ones who are proficient at it.  


Normal Mercs have no unique name and are usually available for rehire, if you let them go - or lose them in combat.<br>
Hiring a mercenary results in them joining your household, where they will be available for assignment. They can be added to your combat party at you discretion or assigned to other duties if you prefer, though they're generally more useful in a combat role (either in your party or in guard duty).
Some Mercs have a number on the left side of their "Hire-Screen" which tells you how many of them
that are still available in game.


Unique "hero mercenaries" '''will not''' appear again if they perish in combat.
Besides their combat proficiency, mercenaries otherwise behave exactly like any other hireling:


You can hire up to two mercenaries at the same time. If you have the cash, you can upgrade their armor - but not their weapons!
*  To hire one, you must pay an '''upfront, one-time''' payment for the contract. Additionally, a daily fee ('''upkeep''') is required for each day you keep them under your employment. Failure to pay the fee will not cause the mercenary to abandon you, but will damage your influence.


==Available mercenaries==
* They may be dismissed from your household. If you do so they will be available for hire again where you originally found them, but all money paid is non-refundable.

OLD PAGE. IGNORE!


The world of Raana is a dangerous one, and as such, rough individuals who can put a weapon to good use are in high demand. Such individuals are mercenaries, professionals who make a living renting their skill and bravery to the highest bidder. Every character you find in the game is capable of picking up a weapon and using it, but mercenaries are the ones who are proficient at it.

Hiring a mercenary results in them joining your household, where they will be available for assignment. They can be added to your combat party at you discretion or assigned to other duties if you prefer, though they're generally more useful in a combat role (either in your party or in guard duty).

Besides their combat proficiency, mercenaries otherwise behave exactly like any other hireling:

  • To hire one, you must pay an upfront, one-time payment for the contract. Additionally, a daily fee (upkeep) is required for each day you keep them under your employment. Failure to pay the fee will not cause the mercenary to abandon you, but will damage your influence.
  • They may be dismissed from your household. If you do so they will be available for hire again where you originally found them, but all money paid is non-refundable.
  • They can be interacted with, which may lead to a quest and some reward.
  • Both their gear and skill can be upgraded, but keep in mind that some might ask a better salary if you do.
  • They cannot die. Depleting their health will only put them out of combat.
