In Endgame, they had a level threshold where their Damage Reduction doubled, this caused an issue where Mercenaries within that threshold felt immortal (up to a point) whereas Mercenaries one below that threshold were dying constantly. We've smoothened this progression so that each level of Mercenary matters more, this has resulted in a few levels where they are taking more damage but not a significant amount.
This is all on top of the change to make them even more resilient to Damage over Time.
