If i RELOG, when i come back into the game the merc is there and responsive. If i then dismiss it it in fact dismisses properly, and is erased from the database.

I haven't looked at the mercenaries code (and don't have a dev environment set up to check), but I'm going to assume that gating back to bind (or porting) doesn't break mercenaries in the same way.

It sounds like you're losing a pointer to your mercenary. When you die, does your character object get recreated? If so, perhaps the code responsible isn't transferring over the pointer to the mercenary.

One thing with cleric mercs my server has noticed is that if you suspend them and then unsuspend them their mana will regen to full. Is this intended by default? I can't remember how that works on Live
