I mean you can put whatever you want on merc. You can see how fast the portal barbs clears so just throw whatever you want on merc. Dream is stylish

ya you can see full clear here p8 where i have no merc:

I was laughing at people paying 6k fg to make all runewords and get the red portal chronicle reward.

I'm not laughing anymore...

nah dream merc... noticed all light damg when they died

notice how the little soul that popped up DIDNT DIE by the portal or the dream b/c light immune

Just say you don’t understand

I was really loving the community commitment to this bit. Very entertaining.

Why did you have to out it with this attempt at evidence?

rewatched it and i see what youre talking about but bro its not a bit. goom doesnt understand how to bportal glitch.

6k sounds cheap for this amazingness

i blinked and missed it...

You can't hit 200 fcr with self-dream or dragon. It has to be a merc aura triggering the portal deathbox from invalid collision-state, because every other damage source or knockback or other effect that triggers enemies to update would be too slow for clearing. I know you can trigger it with 'attacker takes damage' or like in that party game having allies deal the damage (notice how fast everything dies in his clip, because its taking damage instantly), but you need something or the enemies don't check their collision status and die. I've heard it can trigger off really obscure things like drinking a potion from your belt (but not inventory) and kill everything onscreen, but eh, are you gonna drink a potion every 1-2 seconds?
dream merc > dragon merc since you can use light sunder to make it trigger on immunes and fire sunder screws your resists worse in pvm, it works for your merc, doesn't matter if it deals 1-2 damage via immunes or 1-160 vs everything else or whatever, as long as it isn't immune

I was doing exact same build sinsofthesun listed except I used Coven crown instead of hellwardens. Both are superior to a +2/20 circlet because you want the +1 all skills to boost portal AOE, and coven > hellwarden. Life after each kill >>>> mana, you aren't using any mana, 30% fr, 40% mf- easily easily better. I guess you get a socket but what are you gonna put in it, an ist? 30% mf lol.
So yeah I just assume he forgot Coven was added since nobody has seen it in-game lmao

also crown style >

/e and yeah in case its not obvious you don't use holy freeze merc because it shatters corpses. But it does work for the OHKO trigger. But I've got 20 find potion 20 find item no way I'm using HF
