Yeah; GT / GFace with Beast is big dick esports goldfind Merc.
You only get marginally better results with a WP Beast at 5.56 hits/sec, but the difference is minimal.

Ye, I just found a beast for 300 and really wanted to try it out - and I'm really happy I did, it just feels like my merc can't die from anything, even really unfortunate affixes like conviction / fanat / extra strong, he just oneshots stuff, feels amazing :)

I haven't looked back since I started using my current Beast setup. It's so fast and reliable.

@Exokek

I have read the first ten pages so far and the last ten pages so far, like any good novelist would.

I currently run a ww barb with 200 MF 1000 GF with dual Ali lem’d on switch for a nice bump for horking but I wanna make the transition.

Is there any possible way to sum up the middle 130 pages I haven’t read yet with the new end game recs? (This mention of beast now has me thrown off)

I’ll read it all over the next few days but in the meantime…
Still gavel?
If you have enigma do you use it?
Ariocs vs EBOTD still?
Fort still king?

Thanks a ton.

Better to read the more recent posts imo
Beast is good; speeds up runs & the speed compensates pretty much exactly for the offhand goldfind loss. The increased hit % is great.
Visionary on 2os Circlet is A++

Offhand Beast + Gavel setups:

eBOTD Giant Thresher + GFace (Cham) is good. Ideally CoH, Fort works.

eBOTD WP + 3os circlet (Cham + 2x 15/40) + CoH or Fort

Arioc's with Lo Rune + 3os circlet (2x 15/40 + Cham) + CoH

They all work very well.

Thanks for the response. Do you use enigma and change out the ammy ever? Or is it just not comparable due to gold loss.

Oh yes this discussion of circlets is new at the end and the beast as well. I’ll have to see how the circlets are looking.

Would you recommend going full on BotD and fort (CoH SEEMS too high budget for my liking) then if not going for Eth ariocs? Didn’t see any dps sims linked with beasts and such to compare to but maybe they’re in there somewhere.

Thank you!
