It sounded like a fun and effective build to me. I want to make a hybrid that uses Treachery for the Venom, maxes out Poison javs to take advantage of the venom bug, used a Kuko on weapon switch along with Goblin toes, Giant skull bone visage with IAS resist all jewels, crushing blow gloves with IAS (I'll have to check the frames and such) along with maxed out Lightning fury and Charged Strike. A lvl 94 build .

And I want to test out that slow merc idea, it sounds like something I'd find on hardcore. Very useful for chaos running, I bet.

Yea, I wasn't 100% sure about this. Just remembered reading it.

General that merc owns. Kelpie practically stops everything in its tracks.

CHAOS SANCTUARYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Nice one, a little different, and pretty pricey.
Anyway before i start chatting, 6/10.

As stated before, the CB does not carry onto splash.

There have been several Chaos Zon Builds, and one or two had mentioned Brand.

I have made bowazons similar with different weapons basically Frost/Ice Maidens, in order are;
1.a.. FA/Strafe/Enchanted (sorc chant team PvM) Brand GMB (faith merc)
1.b.. FA/Strafe/Enchanted (sorc etc) WF (faith merc)
1.c.. FA/Strafe/Enchanted (sorc etc) Phoenix GMB (faith merc)
1.d.. FA/Strafe/Enchanted (sorc etc) ICE GMB (faith merc)

All other types too long to mention.

I never got around to posting a Brand Build at the time, as there were some builds posting Brand usage.

Explain your reasoning as to why the guide gets a 6/10 and tell me what I can improve on.

I know the gear selection is pricey, but I had a couple requirements that I wanted, which were - 100% pierce (have to use the Razortail) , a Brand bow ( which carries no attack speed on itself) , and a 7 frame attack with Fanaticism.
