Game introduced Fantasy Life

The Mercenary is a Life you can choose in the game Fantasy Life. It is one of 12 Lives that can be chosen at any time during the game by visiting the Guild Master (except during a story mission).

The Mercenary uses greatswords to inflict great damage to enemies in close combat. As it is two-handed the player can not use a shield while wielding a greatsword. Greatswords are the weapons with the highest damage in the game but with a slower attack speed.

The Mercenary's Life Shop is in Al Maajik Spelltown.
