Diablo 4 Mercenaries List and Unlocking Requirements Explained

Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred marks the addition of Mercenaries to the game. Mercenaries are hirable NPCs that will assist you while playing alone, dealing damage and giving you passive boosts, depending on which Mercenary you have rolling with you.

How the Mercenaries work

Early into the Vessel of Hatred campaign, you will unlock the Mercenaries’ headquarters, The Den. This is where you can start the three priority quests to recruit the other Mercenaries. As you complete activities and kill monsters with a Mercenary at your side, you earn Rapport, which will increase your Rapport Rank. Each Mercenary has two branching paths, which specialize in different abilities and damage types.

Mercenaries List and Unlocking Requirements

There are four total Mercenaries in the expansion, each with unique specialties and skills for you to utilize. Here is the list of Mercenaries:

Raheir

Raheir is the first mercenary you unlock, and it happens as part of the main campaign mission in Vessel of Hatred. Raheir’s skills either focus on buffing you defensively and taunting enemies.

Varyana

Varyana can be unlocked via the quest “Slayer’s Retribution” after completing the Temple of Rot stronghold in the Dry Steppes. Varyana’s main ability increases your movement speed based on massacre kills.

Aldkin

Aldkin can be found in a passage in Nahantu after picking up the quest “A Nameless Mystery.” Aldkin’s skill tree is split into the fire damage side and the shadow damage side.

Subo

Subo can be found in Hawezar as part of the quest “A Feather on the Scale.” Subo’s wide variety of options means he likely has something you can use, but you might not get as much of a boost compared to the other Mercenaries.

Each Mercenary has unique abilities and skills that can be used to enhance your gameplay experience. By unlocking and utilizing these Mercenaries, you can gain an edge in the game and overcome challenges with ease.
