So...

Find Potion seems like it's still providing a stealth +% success on Find Item.

I'm hitting like 75% success rate atm.


This. Definitely getting a bonus to the find item success rate. I've been testing with 20 points into Find Potion now, and the difference is very noticeable.

Edit: On my 58% Find Item setup it's getting ridiculous. Feels like close to a 90% success rate. Definitely requires more testing though.

Not impress by a5 merc so far, override amp way to much and frenzy seems to miss way more hit than jab for some reasons (not using prebuff with enchant so far)

Clear speed seems more or less similar to Emilio.

Definitly need more testing different setup with fury & more AR.

Current setup?
I'm doing Fury+Headstriker with a 2os visio, and it's solid. Haven't timed many runs, but it seems to be a bit faster when using Beast for aura.

Yea with beast you got already a nice AR boost :)

Using basic setup for now :
-- double HS + coh + jeweler tiara of thawing socketed triple 15ias/40 DtD jewel

Next step :
-- fury/HS + arreat (15/40 DtD) + black hades (triple 15/40 DtD)
-- fury/HS +visio/leech/2os circ + forti

Should get nice boost for hit rating in either way.

Edit: feel way better with ench, this merc definitly need some serious AR

Lovely! Let us know how the testing goes :)
On a side note: I would really recommend trying a 58% find item build now. It almost feels like cheating with the current success rate when maxing find potion :drool:

ironically, with the 20% hidden find item boost from find potion, it's even less necessary to hit the 58% mark. There's huge diminishing returns per skill point for find item, but a flat 1% per point for find potion. You can aim for like 54-57%, save a shit ton on expensive warcry/gf GCs, and shore up other areas with the added skill points (for example, if going self dps route, extra berserk synergies).

yup, hitting the 900k max occasionally now, whereas before I would only get this once in a blue moon.
