Good question. I use no plugy and if I don't get rid of the upping materials, I lose them anyways. I haven't been able to find good armor for merc. Since I was going to try hell soon, I upped it. The old armor was like 100 def and lower res with some modest mf.

So there is a worthy hell weapon. I don't mind the fear mod because It's like crowd control in hell. Haven't used it in hell yet. i went back to nightmare to get some stuff done. Check weapon on lesser beasts. Chill.

Ofc, I found another armor that I hoped would be 2 or 3 socket.



So I tossed the "crappy" armor and put two PTopaz in it Better mf than the old crappy armor.



Pretty bow. I'd use an amp bow but in bear form, you got to be right up there. Not sure it even processes. Probably does.

I need a leech ring but will it be better than 8%?



Probably is. Using it.



Finding every druid exceptional item in this WT.

I just tried it out with other off weapon ias items in nightmare. The "passion" feral axe gets to 8 frames from 9. But res would suck in hell...sucks in nightmare.



Here is Feral Axe character sheet:



This is with Smoke, not twitch.

This is without a weapon to show fire damage.

I started putting more points in fire claw synergies. Not sure if I should have just maxed the bear. I haven't used any stat quests.



Doing a baal to check out weapon. Hardest part of summons was the wave 2. Wish I could taunt them away from the decrepify area.

When I did baal, I forgot to do the chance to hit him chart. So here it is with the new "passion" weapon. I just used the mf +3 fire claw pelt. That weapon really helped! Still he is mean.




All crap.

Keeping this baby. Got rid of an ar charm with some other mod. Need that light res on two-handed attacks. I seem to hit well enough.





Been doing hall runs and baal along with some LK's just hoping to reduce the gems. Going to Hell soon.

Hell found item. I'm not going out of Bloodmoor. These slowpoke monsters are barely manageable.



Good practice for me. Biggest danger is when I use two handed weapon and a monster with an aura amps from afar. This guy hurts.

My Shako. I need positive feelings. I'd wear a shako.



Made merc this Matching uniform for the future...if there is a future. Right now I'm mfing this desert of magic. There is a nice hut with a superchest to keep me intrigued. The quillrats scare the hell out of the team.



Back in nightmare, I got very tired of making perfect gems. I've seen a unique and many rares so far. Also got a level pounding monsters in bloodmoor. So I can see the experience bar moving.

Was gambling for a mesh belt and got this! Sold.



I like it but I think the res in the caster belt is better. The fhr is so nice though. No room for it.



I have 49 stat points to allocate. I went with str. This is damage in passion Feral Axe before stat allocation.
