dont know who told you to use HF merc lol but it's bad as f
losing around 40% phys dmg = 40% less life leech
making fights longer = taking more dmg
merc will die cuz of bad dmg/leech, especially if you're restricting the gear you can use on him
just my 2 cents ;)

oh and that Hwanin's Bill :p

Damage: 42 To 159 (100.5 Avg)
Required Level: 28
Required Strength: 95
Base Weapon Speed: [0]
+200% Enhanced Damage
Adds 5-25 Lightning Damage
40% Increased Attack Speed
+330 To Attack Rating
Indestructible
10% Chance To Cast Level 3 Ice Blast On Striking

I put it in the ias calculator: 6/6/6/6 9

That is fast. More damage and faster than what the young wolf is using. It's ar is also insane. I've seen titans using it in hell... but not for long ;)

On the holyfreeze, it's getting surround that kills a titan. They can kill pretty good with their strength bonus but they can't take many hits. So being able to withdraw from battle and come back into battle against select targets keeps them alive. Sometimes it's a grind but it keeps one out of the cemetery. When you are in the thick of battle and you hear amp go off...you shit your pants--trust me, holy freeze helps.

Thanks guys. I'm hoping it will be a long journey. I tried a couple times to get into that altar to clear the darkness but there were so many snakes. Fang is sitting at the bottom of the steps with his pals and another boss snake is near the tp I set around the corner and north. It's wall to tp snakes with skellies and their masters holding the altar. "The way is blocked...the way is blocked." So did new game. Went back to viper temple to fight a very long route back to level 2:



Was greeted with a herd of snakes. I guess it's a nest of snakes but it looked like a bad portal in cow level. All kinds of color suggesting specials. Their kb is nasty. Strike 2. Retreating to fight another day. The weapon sucks. Need to work on that.

Did some countesses because I need a damn ort to up a weapon or 2.



Wasn't too hard working to her in p8.



Even if it was just an eth rune. Need ort.

Some stash clearing required so rolled a caster ammy:


Not good. The 29 fire res 12 life ammy is ... superior.


Best thing about this countess is the flawless rubies:


Now that is a great improvement. What isn't to like? Even the inner sight might help in pre-buff situations...have to look into that.

Was just showing a chart here...inner sight is not activated:



Got level 4 heart of the wolverine now. It's living in nightmare. Tough little thingy.



Is the countess going to torture me with upping rals to ort?



guess not.

Yes its a cool weapon for nightmare

I think getting surrounded is a luxe you cant aloow to yourself before very good gear in late hell p8.
Even in A5 NM with my zealer I take it slowly.
But again with best dmg you dont get into troubles, especially with 2hands weaps :p

But D2 is torturing me with choices of weapons to up:


Also found this around Bishbosh who is located by the wp:


Silly me. I didn't take the screenshot of it. But I did up it so you can reverse engineer it's original damage:



It's the same speed in the ias calculator ( 10/10/10/10) as the war club I've been using but much better damage. It has mana leech which is nice. It might have been wiser to up the voulge to bill for speed and ar but the martel looks like a titan's weapon with 80 average damage base...nice heft ;) Glad it had 10 ias mod.

Seems I neglected to show the belt being used:


I know, light belt with whale mod...but the cold res is very useful. Also using a 12 mf blue ring with 22 cold res. And found this earlier:



Helps. Here is new chart:


Feral rage attack really hurts the baddies now. But ar really down with new weapon. The war club produced like 88 chance to hit stuff in act 1 nmare. Still have the voulge to up for merc or wolf. Maybe find something better though.

Another point, you have a shield on your guy. And fhr! With low fhr and being surrounded, two-handed wolf can't even get hits off.
