mercenary modeWith MMORPGs like World of Warcraft, players can choose to do pretty much whatever they want. They can choose to do PvE content like tackle raids and instances, they can role play, they can make gold via the auction houses, or they can engage in PvP across battlegrounds, arenas, or even open world.

Now if you’re a PvP player in World of Warcraft, you might be interested to learn that in an upcoming patch Blizzard has planned, a new PvP feature will be added to the game called Mercenary Mode. PvP for the most part usually involves players fighter players of the opposing faction.
