Charged Bolt: Casts forward lightning sparks on the ground, shocking and dealing damage to nearby enemies.

Inferno: Expells a stream of fire, incinerating all enemies in its path.

Glacial Spike: Casts forward a shard of ice, exploding and freezing multiple nearby enemies.

Iron Wolves are unable to equip Paladin-specific shields. Classes like Barbarians and Druids who like to fight up close tend to prefer the Ice-based mercenary due to their ability to provide the extra defense with Frozen Armor. There are three distinct types of Iron Wolves specializing in different elements: Ice, Fire, and Lightning.

Ironically, though you can give your Iron Wolf hireling a shield, he won't be able to block enemy damage. Their combat mechanics are similar to the Rogue Scouts from Act I-they mostly attack from a distance.

Though boasting a sword and shield, they rely primarily on their magical abilities.Ĭompleting the Blade of the Old Religion quest in Act III will reward you with an Iron Wolf hireling free of charge. Highly effective spellcasters, the Iron Wolves work under Asheara and protect the people within the Kurast Docks.

But on both Normal and Hell, the aura buffs will be the same. The Desert Mercenaries will have different auras depending on which difficulty you are currently playing. The Desert Mercenaries are considered the best hireling for any class builds you're running due to their Paladin auras like Defiance, Blessed Aim, and Prayer. Being a melee attacker also allows them to lure enemies away from you. They are the first melee-based hireling you encounter, using spears to attack enemies and applying buffs to you and themselves. Desert Mercenaries are available for hire through Greiz in Lut Gholein-you can find him north of the town's Waypoint, near the entrance to Sewers Level 1. The second type of hirelings you can hire is the Desert Mercenary. They can also shoot Fire Arrows or Cold Arrows. They can't equip crossbows or Amazon-specific bows. You'll notice this buff is active when an enemy is highlighted with a white light on top of their head.

They can also cast Inner Sight-an Amazon debuff skill that lowers the defense of all enemies within range.

Fire arrows travel twice the distance of Ice Arrows.

You can pick and choose which type of Rogue Scouts you'd like to hire from the mercenary window. Rogue Scouts can imbue their arrows with either fire or cold damage. They are arguably the weakest hirelings out of the four-they primarily stand in the back and function as artillery support, shooting arrows and debuffing enemies. You'll obtain a Rogue Scout for no cost from Kashya as a reward for that quest as well. To unlock them, you must complete the Sisters' Burial Grounds quest given by Kashya in Rogue Encampment. They highly resemble the Amazon hero-class in appearance. Rogue Scouts are the first hirelings that will be available to you in Diablo II: Resurrected. There are four types of Mercenaries you can hire in the game Rogue Scouts ( Act I), Desert Mercenaries (Act II), Iron Wolves (Act III), and Barbarians (Act IV).

The different mercs across the Acts have skills unique to their class as well.

Mercenaries, however, cannot wear class-specific equipment (except for the Barbarians), and they can only wield weapons specific to their type.

Press O (PC) on your keyboard to open the Mercenary sheet, then drag and drop the pieces of equipment you'd like them to use. Your mercs can also use armor and weapons that you've gathered.

However, in the Lord of Destruction expansion, Mercenaries are significantly more helpful and are available throughout the game-this is also the case for Diablo II: Resurrected. For example, Rogue Scouts would only be available while you're exploring areas and completing quests in Act I and would not follow you to Lut Gholein in Act II. In the vanilla version of Diablo II, you can only hire mercs as a temporary companion throughout one Act.
