My Nova Sorc holds an infinity scythe, so i don't need an infinity merc, first thought is a A2 merc with Insight for Med, any other options?

Infinity is still a nice option for the damage.

Reaper's toll as well.

Tombreaver 3 sox with 40/15s.

I think med is better because it's essential healing because i use es but was thinking of A5 merc alternatives for light immune that infinity doesn't work on.

Prayer mercenary use his synergy with Insight.
He will heal you both mana and life.

Etheral elite Insight deals decent damage, in case you meet 117+ light res enemies.

nova sorc burns mana as hell, you gotta use m insight if you have infy.


You might deal more dmg if the merc has the infy and you go 200fcr

I can solo hell with just inf and maxed warmth, just the very high light immune that give me trouble, in with nova is way more fun because of the aura radius. Mercs wander.

If you use infiniti 2hand weapon, you need a Act2 Defense merc with holy freeze aura. The merc should use 17med insight.

Hopefully you have the proper skills maxed.

20 nova
20 light mastery
20 warmth
20 telekinesis

IMO!
