Hello, I'm debating what would be the best mercenary in my situation. I'm running a medium budget sorcerer build with nearly 400 MF, 86 FHR, 875 HP. I'm not very experienced and my merc tends to die some times. He has tals mask, eth balrog Smoke and partizan Insight but I plan to invest on his gear soon (a good treachery and an eth elite insight).

My MF consists of Andy, Meph and Ancient tunnels. My goal with this merc is primarily for him to survive so I don't have to revive him and I stay safe. So far I've been running Cold aura but I think Blessed aim might be good, especially if he has a solid weapon? As they say, "offense is the best defense", my killing ennemies faster he might die less often? Especially with life steal. Would killing ennemies faster and hitting more benefit his survivability more than the cold aura? The extra damage isn't my priority but its still some extra DPS the occasional cold immune elites. But cold aura is really nice defensively for myself and him. So I'm really not sure


So what do you think?

Insight
Treachery
Life leech helm. (Tals, vgaze, Andy’s)

Might

Best budget setup. Obviously higher dmg the better on the insight. Improves leech and he’s your main DPS for immunes. Treachery can be put in a chain mail for all tense and purpose.
