Mercenaries
Mercenaries are individuals you can hire at various locations throughout Raana.
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.
Normal Mercs have no unique name and are usually available for rehire, if you let them go - or lose them in combat.
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.
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!
Generic Mercenaries
There is a large yet finite number of each of these mercenaries. Should one die you can hire another identical one so long as copies of them remain. Those are good for the early game when you might be losing mercenaries due to inexperience. It is worth noting that you can not hire multiple copies of the same generic mercenary, so you can't have two peasants at the same time. Instead one of them must die first before you can hire their identical replacement.
