Zarhold card MMORPG: Free Blades — hire live players and their shadows for Mythic runs, prices by rank and the Blades’ Party

The Mercenary Camp has a Free Blades tab. Sign the camp Charter, and other parties can call you into a Mythic dungeon or Mythic raid — in person, or as your shadow, a copy of your hero that fights even when you are not in the game. With this update the rules are more flexible: you set your own price, and a party of a tank and a healer can take three mercenaries. — How to become a Blade — You need level 60, 5 completed Mythic runs and gear item level 240 or higher. Mercenary Camp → Free Blades → My Charter: tick “I go myself”, “I leave a shadow”, or both. Signing is free. You can leave the Charter at any time except while you are hired. — Prices by rank — A Blade sets his own price within his rank’s range: Newcomer 200–500, Free Blade 300–800, Sword for Hire 400–1,200, Mercenary Captain 500–1,800, Legend of the Camp 600–2,500 gold. Until you have 10 completed runs you are a Newcomer. For a completed run the Blade gets half of the price, the rest leaves the world. A shadow uses the same table, within its owner’s rank range. The owner gets 10% of the price for every completed run, up to 5 hires a day. — A place in the list — To keep your card in the list, you pay a weekly fee: 4 shares of one run at your price. For example, a Newcomer at 500 gets 250 per run, so the fee is 1,000 gold a week. The first week is free. No fee — your card is hidden until you renew, and your Charter stays signed. — The Blades’ Party — If exactly two of your own players are the tank and the healer, the party can take up to 3 mercenaries, all damage dealers. The third can only be a live Blade: residents and shadows — no more than two, as before. Other parties keep up to 2 mercenaries, with only one tank or healer among them. — How to call — • Call now — players who are online: the Blade accepts, the gold is frozen and he joins your party. • By appointment — an invitation with a place and a time; the Blade gets a reminder 15 minutes before the start. • Hire shadow — at any hour, even when its owner is offline. A Blade’s card shows the price, the Newcomer tag, bosses killed while hired, average damage or healing per boss fight and reliability — runs finished out of runs agreed to. Damage and healing are counted from this update. — Loot — The party’s loot goes to the party. A Blade has only personal loot by the usual rules, and only if he has not cleared this Mythic this week. A Blade does not take part in the party’s item roll. — Rewards — For a completed run a live Blade gets his share of the price, Blade Seals (5 for a dungeon, 10 for a raid, up to 60 a week), a Helper’s Chest once a day, titles from Free Blade to Legend of the Camp, “thanks” from the party and 8 achievements. The best Blades are on the board of honor in the camp and on the site. Seals, the chest and rating are given for helping someone who has not cleared that Mythic this week; if no Seals came, the game tells you why. — Blade Shop — For Blade Seals: a badge next to your name, the Camp Blade portrait frame, a tabard, the Camp Horse with flights ×3, a living Camp Hound, food and flasks for the run, honing scrolls up to +14 and gems. Purchases are personal. — No-shows — Did not come when invited — a mark for 14 days and a day without hire, and the payment returns to the party. You can always decline an invitation: there is no penalty for that. — Everyone sees appearance effects — Aura, frame glow, entry runes, hit flash and trail are visible to allies, opponents and tournament spectators, and everyone in the battle sees the victory salute, the losing side too. If the battle on your device runs more than 5% slower with other players’ effects, they become still; you can change this in Settings → Graphics → Look effects. All the Free Blades rules are in the Mercenary Camp (How mercenaries work and the All the rules tab) and in the Knowledge Base. The big PvE update has its own news. See you at the camp!
