Actually i tested setup what i posted above ( single player + p8 ) and mana was not so big issue as i thought also and swapping Infy away is too big dmg lose.

e: FAzon is probably more funny build than any serious gaming :p


I remember a guy who uses 2x Soj, Silkweave and Insight merc said he was still potting.

Many ppl say mana consumption is the biggest problem they face:

I never sayd that mana is not running out at some point, i said that it’s not so big issue as i thought also. I also had to drink few mana pots at the time, but didn’t need to spam that mana button as i firstly thought :) Mana leech and MAEK is ~decent with setup i tested and posted.

Personally i felt that running out of arrows was bigger problem than running out mana, i was lazy to pick up arrows from ground tbh, i don’t usually play Zon.

my build:

2zon/30frw(or 20fcr)/colddamage/2soc circ --> 15ias 3maek + 5/-5 -- or cheaper: NW 15ias/3maek
ice matbow 3sk
eni or 20/-20 (depends if u wanna tele or walk ;) )
razortail
3/20 gloves
soj raven
silkweave (for maek)
highlords

bow sks
cold dmg scs

hits 8fps ;)

since u got many skillpoint left you could also think about building a magezon using ice + fire

i use faith on this one, so easy to reach 7fps

What if you use Insight instead of Infinity? Mana would be enough?

Haven’t tested that but personally i’d keep Infy and drink that 4-7 mana potions / Chaos run example and have that huge dmg boost what Infy offers instead of not drinking a mana potion at all but spending 2-3 x more time to finnish that run :)

But it’s all about personal preferences, if you are not in hurry and can just chill, spam arrows and wait that monster die then Insight is also okay opinion for Merc.

But if you play p1 then it’s not probably so big deal what weapon Merc uses.
