[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 8164169, member: 5889"] If you think that a merc who is getting paid more than he could ever dream on, would just turn on a boss that can point at someone and kill them, can alter reality, and can detect his very thoughts, oh and will come back from the dead if you do kill him (clone, which lets be honest the merc will have no understanding of how the wizard does it, just that the wizard is basically unkillable).
