I added in the field "special_abilities" to merc_stats. I didn't bother populating it with anything because every entry in the specialattks field was empty. After adding special_abilties, I modified vwMercNpcTypes to also include special_abilities from the merc_stats table. After doing that, I was able to spawn a mercenary without being given any errors. I don't know how stable of a fix that is, but it appears to be working.
