Re: Glitches
I've come across the Twin Mercenary glitch, where it spawns a clone of a mercenary you already have hired. There are two ways I know how to do this.
First off, it is easiest to do this with the mercenary at twinblades camp. Hire him, leave the area, then dismiss him. Once he's teleporting, use your seal or walk into a cullis gate, BEFORE he can finish teleporting. Then when you come back, you will see he is still standing there. But unless the mercenary is in the same area (Twinblades camp) you will not be able to talk to him. He will show up as a green dot on the map but he will not talk or say anything (Though he will say his "Need someone to watch your back" line if you zoom in and point your bow at him) If you are able to do this right, or in the bandit camp, there will appear two of the same mercenarys. You hire the original one first, while the clone sits in the same spot, and cannot be spoken to, nor say anything to you. But walk out of the area with the original, and come back, and you can hire the clone. Hense you now have two identicle mercenary twins fighting at your side.
This trick works with all mercenarys but is easiest done with the one in twinblades camp, or the one in bowerstone tavern. For some reason it is rather difficult to get two of the good guy mercenarys to clone, it does not always work for some reason.
Another way to do this is to keep your mercenarys alive through the prison quest. Upon getting locked up, your mercenarys will "Dissapear". Go back to where you would normally find them and there will be a clone already standing there. Hire the original and come back later for the clone.
Last but not least, if a clone dies, it does not always return to where you would find it. Sometimes you gotta do the trick over again to get it to come back.
