What is the goated bind? I see a lot of cursed mephisto with fanat. How often does his amp damage proc? I saw someone somewhere mention holyshock/frost with cursed is better since instant proc of amp on entire screen, sacrifices some ED from Fanat but better at amping.

Curious what the consensus is.

Depends on your gear, usually. If your gear is kinda ass, then fanaticism+ cursed heyphatso is awesome.

But generally you can't go wrong with a holy freeze/fire/shock cursed heyphatso... Everything dies so quickly anyways that you want amp to proc as quickly as possible and fanaticism+ cursed cannot do it nearly as fast as holy freeze/shock/fire + cursed can.

damn i haven't seen a mephisto bind yet

fanat is unnecessary on an energy shield lock. most people running that think fanat = more sheet damage = better.

cursed/holy aura is good for the constant amp recast.

People like Fanat for more damage/attack speed, but you already instantly kill everything without it. Plus you can get might on an Act 2 merc for guaranteed +dmg.

Holy freeze/shock/fire feels amazing for quick clearing.

Stone Skin or magic resist is great for ubers.

Curse is always a must.

The best demon I found was a Furnace of Pain Pit Lord with Stone Skin, Curse, and Holy Freeze. Immunity to everything and instant full screen curse.

Aura enchanted cursed lister is easy to get and an absolute tank. You already deal so much dmg don’t really need the fanat aura on top
