hm...
i pay cs with my bone nec too, but my merc has a really bbbiiiiiig difference to urs!
i use a5 merc with lawbringer in cs, which gives a nice knockback vs undeads and casts decrep on hit, if you dont want to waste your points into it.
Then i give him Eth Upped GA for nice maxres in combination with
Veil of Steel which has a bonus of 50@ and a really nice def, this merc cannot rip in the cs, only if youre really slow when im comes, but even then it takes a while till he dies.
A2 merc in cs without low weapon = always rip, imo thats not so good.
But nice guide though, 7,5/10
ok some hints on this necro.
1. you should never use lawbringer, since the main strategy on him is to keep the monsters as close as possible, curse them, kill one and see how a big amount of monsters fall like autumn leaves. lawbringer is pretty your worst enemy since it spread them all around.
2. now the merc election. you are losing at least 2 nice auras in combo. [boosting your defs with def hell aura or slowing all down with def nm one; and the infinity that makes your c/e dmg even more deadly]
3. you merc is basically something that is not killed but does not kill anything and does not supply anything usefull [you can cast decrep faster than him]
4. if you are paranoid on your mercs survivance, just use vgaze, infi voulge and coh. youll have nice life leech, no ias, 28-36dr and huge resis.
5. my merc dies very rarely, only when a lag wave comes or when i forget im playing xD
