At level 20 you should eithier get the viking or the monk. I prefer the monk because he heals your hero at the beginning of every turn if he has enough AP. But his combat ability is sorely lacking. The viking is a better choice if you prefer a front/mid row high HP fighter.

a monk is pretty handy
i think he can revive, so if one of your mercenary dies in battle you can revive him(not sure about reviving)
check your game info ingame and go to monk and see what skills he has

kay i guess im getting a monk

[Saaaaaad]

Monk's dont revive, the reason you get them is Holy Guard and Awakening. Awakening removes stun caused by weapons (the pink circle you might get when attacked) and heals a small amount. Holy Guard removes bad status effects (such as curse/poison/freeze) and makes the characters you cast it on immune to magic for a few turns. It's a must have for PvP.

Last time I played this, I did the firing squad formation.

in beta i did 8 gunners (including me) and 1 inventor

it was fun for awhile

meh i didnt get the monk i went with

sword-sword-empty
me(axe)-spear-empty
shaman-gunner-empty >.> it works fine i can clear the mobs fast enuf and my mercs hardly die now that they have a better defence

I will prefer you to get a monk, it is quite more effective rather than a viking. Don't worry you can reuse your mercenary whenever you want, just don't forget to bring them to the mercenary room. Let us all enjoy atlantica online

I think so too. I might replace my viking for a beast master soon. A Viking has extremely low magic defense which just sucks and the usual primary target for PVP is th Viking coz he stuns. And if everyone hits him with skills then he's pretty much dead.
