is it worth going eth COH on merc for +2 all skills to get might aura, or is fortitude still just better for damage ?

what kind of warlock?

echoing strike
edit: does anyone know how much 2 levels of might gives in damage on echoing strike?

it depends on the type of merc u are using. ur question is not a good one..

if u using ETH ANDY/ETH INSIGHT- u use eth fort -- u get ur life leech from eth andy

if using eth cure/eth insight- u use eth coh ( u need the Life leech from it)

even if u usign fortitude as weapon - same idea. the only time u use eth coh over eth fortitude is because u need life leech (if ur other items have it then u use eth fortitude)

the +2 skills on COH for merc: useless. and dont help your char

if you going echoing strike, just put pride on might merc, let Hephasto do the tanking

merc isnt really a damage dealer with echo warlock. once warlock is geared, merc damage is insignificant

buy a +2 Arkaine's Valor armor to test the damage difference between lvls before wasting ber. "Might" is low so im guessing not worth it unless +2 and life leech from coh is needed to keep merc going.

i use 2/174 eth valor on my merc and i like it
