The Mercenary is one of the new classes inPath of Exile 2but it’s already become a fan-favorite.
Mercenaries are another ranged class, but they have the ability to hit much harder than the standard Ranger.
With the right gear, skills, and gameplay loop, enemies and bosses become trivial to the Mercenary.
Mercenaries use the crossbow to wield a plentiful amount of ammunition types.
With your crossbow, you could primarily deal two kinds of elemental damage, fire and frost.
Your main attribute as a Mercenary will be Dexterity, as this improves the accuracy of your shots.
Most of your elemental ammo must be reloaded after a single shot.
However, if you want a more defensive-minded Mercenary, boosting armor and evasion rating are also viable options.
There are two options available for the Mercenary in early access: Witch Hunter and Gemling Legionnaire.
That does it for our Mercenary build in Path of Exile 2.
