Ok, i have always thought the price of mercs were way too high, what do you all think?

(For those of you who dont know, mercs cost 100k gold and 5k GP)

Personally, i think that they should cost 50k and 500gp after lvl 3 and at lvl 4 (when you can use more than one) 100k gold and 1k gp

I think mercs should cost 30k gp... only because i dont think they should be abused and only used when needed not in every guild war

I u


yeah I agree(eventhough I'm not my guilds leader...)

If I was guild leader, and my guild could afford those. I would keep 2 fire mercs in my inventory just to smite someone who is popping.

Is it just me or do mercs seem really really weak?

If I'm gonna pay for backup like that, I'd want something that can hit as hard as I do.

I have seen my leader use mercs while hunting...imagine errr...4 light nukes + your light nukes on 3 thieves...

Hehe no, mercs are your lvl. Don't expect to if you like lvl 40 with 8 mercs to randomly kill a lvl 60 just cause you have mercs.


All tho lvl 80 mercs own. Only need 2 to kill any Pure str >.>

i am against mercs on principle. i have only used them twice since they came out, and i'd have used them less if i hadn't needed backpu faster than it could have arrived.

I think i only ever used 2 mercs during the time my guild was lvl 3.

Now at lvl 4 i think i can use 5 at one time (Or more - correct me if im wrong)

It was funny.. me, in zerk + 1 fire merc at lvl 56 took down a lvl 62 3* trader and his bull.

time to take out the job suits and horses

I did that.. And he went murder ( 2 lvls ) i reversed returned killed m he dropped his shoes armor lvl 74 +4 str 5 and int 5 i laughed so hard at him xD

merc are gay

you cant go out with them >_> someone will make you into murder status

gai mercenarys


when they would fix that you cant attack when someone trying to put off any suit it owuld be better and should cost more


and same as pink status they shouldnt atttack -.-

When i first seen them i thought.... WTF CLONES?!?!

It gets me angry when 8x go hunting with them...

So they are telling me they cant kill 6x - 7x without them?

Grats2Them, I think they are a good idea when used in the correctly.

If he wasnt STR, that would have been good. Still i thought it deserved a post!

lol thier hardly used on red sea when i was there, only occasionaly in wars. im not against them but they are annoying.

I gave my friend some mercs because he reached lvl 64.. Transferred leadership, he had fun killing a few lvl 69+.
He became a "pussy" and a "weak a$$hole" that same minute, while he was just enjoying a present.. Mercs are the good price right now and people shouldnt be that jealous

It pretty lame and pathetic to summon mercs unless you are serriously outnumbered. like 5-1 or more. But when the guys that outnumber you summon mercs it feels like your day was just ruined. And you constantly get murder status with them from people who like to interfer, and i think they should cost more to make people think before buying a merc, except at level 5guild it doesnt matter how much GP they cost since at5 they wont take any GP away.

Your friends mercs did 80 dmg to me, and I killed your friend with a kd. So i guess he is a weak a$$hole.

his friend is 64, your 70. and unless you upgrade mercs in the guild agent menu, they dont do a lot of dmg.

I just dont like them because they had 2 of their guildmates and mercs vs me, the second guildmate being 72+ fully farmed I will make fun of his weak mercs if I want to!

Mercs = lame.

my 74 glaiver gets hit for like 11k by 1 fuggin first book fire nuke... and dont get me started on the 80 ice mercs... if you arent immune ffs ><!

[b] I think the price of the merc should be expensive ...better make the price to 200k..why?????so it wouldnt be abuse by those noob build chars who desperately use merc on job war and guildwar just to try to win..
its kinda noob thing to do.....especially on 1v1...merc are ok to use when the GM is being gangbang...

100k ~ 200k same ...should be 1 mil or so imo

and guild wars both of the GM's can summon merc so it's not a cheat or something you can both use it =|

mercs are too cheap

Step 1 put on thief suit.

Step 2 get on ox

Step 3 saunter down the dead ravine

Step 4 laugh at hunters' bodies that tried to attack you.

Bring your friends who are doing the same for even more of a laugh

Picking up goods spawns theives and makes you vulnerable. Best to have a low level thief do it, he's protected by your mercs anyways.

Well, I was bored, and 3 hunters were really annoying me so i opened a can of whoop as and poured it on their heads. Me +zerk + 3 mercs = 3 57+ hunters dead.

Then i thought i would take some ss









Fun fun fun (I still dont agree with the price though)

I would say make it more expensive, but botter guilds wll still buy them
