Jw if act 2 or act 5, i remember alot using a5 but dony have a clur what weapon people went for

Anyone got either a guide or info plz?

a2 merc is the standard.

Lots of different setups for them though

Eth doom cryptic axe
Eth fort archon plate
Eth shako with 15-40 jewel or CoA with 2x perf poison facets (so when your merc dies it kills your opponent summons)

Nightmare offensive iirc

a5 with grandfathers sword

Aye just wondered what would be best for din, I use e andies, fort sp and ebotd war pike on druid

Is doom the best for dmg then? And shako? Never heard of one used on a merc before lol

Eth doom CA yeah

And shako, of course. It adds +2 all skills which is a massive boost for the mercenary jab skill. It adds lot more crit chances and deadly strike than guillaume's
Shako has also 10% DR and mass life which is def a good thing for ur merc. Ask anyone who has done bm hvh in here and they will tell u so

In terms of damage, eth botd Warpike is superior.
however it's slower and doom has deadly strike, +2 all skills and the cold aura is definitely nice when dueling against other mercenaries or melee chars

Lol wut

Same goes for an act 5 merc

Act 5 mercenaries use bash and stun so if you use + skills on them, it'll up their damage.

Andarials visage is a good helm to use on an act 5 merc because of the base ias, strength and + skill.

Best act 5 with insight, shako for life and enigma so he can Tele around with u
