How cast Amplify Cursed Bind Demon?

1. He curses only those mobs whom he himself has wounded
or
2. He curses any wounded monsters

Along with this, there is advice to take a demon with an attacking aura (holy fire, holy freezy, holy shock) so that he curses faster.
And if this aura is on a mercenary, the effect will remain the same, so that the demon curses faster or not?

i think the (cursed) bind demon just casts curse on the first monster he hits and the area of effect corresponds to the curse level.

does not matter at all if the minions are wounded or not - spreads to full HP minions too.

so it does not matter at all if he has holy fire, etc. - best to get one with conviction + cursed

.... No comments

Having an aura such has holy fire/shock/freeze is best you can have since every often the whole screen will get amped
Which is much much better than having to wait for your demon to actually hit a target (which is often slow due to ar check and block)

Aura is the best way to spray curse on the whole screen

If you're playing a fire warlock or blood boil then conviction is also importent ofc since you're doing mostly elemental damage (blood boil being both a conviction/curse is prob the best)

I'm trying to choose fanaticism or elemental aura for the echoing strike
I care only about DPS

Then use a holy fire/shock/freeze aura without a second thought

Whatever the other are saying I can tell you its suboptimal
One of the three holy aura + curse is bis for echoing strike

Nope.. elemental aura best. Unless you are only concerned with your damage number on screen going higher. You don't need the AR, attack speed, or damage that Fanat provides
