Mercenaries Lite (v.34)

Description
This mod allows you to hire mercenaries to fight for you. You can hire them through the merchant Khazad (that's him in the mod splash picture) who is present in the 4 Act towns. Choose from a sword-and-shield merc, a pikeman merc, a pistolero merc, a heavy melee merc and an assassin merc. You can have only one active at a time and I made them a little pricey.

It's probably not balanced. The mercenaries were designed to be able to last through most of a zone even if you're a zerg-rush kind of player. So they're pretty tough and they hit hard, but they are not invincible and will die if they are overwhelmed by the enemy. Then again, I've only tested this on Veteran level so I don't know how they'll do on Elite.

This mod is nowhere near the Gold Standard mods for fighting companions like Kelintor's Mercenaries or Doudley's Warbounds. I just thought it would be good to have a way to easily hire some fighting help and not have to worry about managing them too much. I may or may not add more mercs, we'll see. So anyway, here it is. Hope you like it ;)

Yeah soon as I put it up top it worked lickity split. I completely forgot about the significance of load order.

yeah that's a safe bet. I'll also say it shouldn't interfere with other mods even if you put it up top, bcos I did my best to make it "standalone" :steamhappy:

Ohhhhh maybe that's my issue. I imagine it should be first in load order?

Hi @Turbo. What order do you have your mods in?

Playing a Paladin using the synergies mod and I tried summoning 3 so far with no luck. Mercs don't appear and im out 12k gold. Any ideas as to why im having trouble?

hey @lo0mid! This version of the mod is stand-alone. But I have tested it wth other merchant mods and so far I have not seen any conflicts ;)

Hi @lemzkie666 thanks for trying it out! So is that Synergies youre playing with? Ye i didnt test with that mod active but not surprised its killing the mercs quick since it really ratchets up the difficulty.
Beefing them up will make them OP for non-Synergy play, so what u suggest is retreat more often - they all have some hp regen, so retreating will build their hp back up before u go in again.

Bro Love this mod, sad thing is I have a mod where everything is like Hardcore Elite and mercenaries just die with several hits, also it's just me can you include like NPC's like the Arrow Guards or Female Mercenaries. If not thanks anyways really appreciate your work.
