Do tell us how you spend that time walking to Hratli in order to repair 3 charges of gavel of pain? Must be really efficient... maybe swap it for harmony for even faster run there probably shaved off 20 sec of your run already you welcome.

Also how does your merc die with life leech and the barb bo? Only time I've seen merc die on me is to vipers/deseis/mob of archers

Yep. The time you save from not starting A3 & Amp Dmg tripling your DPS is, in fact, more efficient.

OK so you are not a complete retard. But walking to Hablu is time lost when you can be 1/2 through your run without repairs
Also didn't know that amp triples your damage with 100% I must of missed math class

I outline the specific routine in the guide. It's really not that hard.

TP A3
Stash
WP to A4
Repair
Log out remake

A full run goes 45-55 seconds with stash & repairs included. Fastest I've gotten was 32s vs. a super clean Council spawn with no shitty affixes. I used to have to wait 5-15s before remaking when the minimum timer was 60s.

Now that they bumped up the timer to 80s you have even more wiggle room, and it may be correct to replace the Merc's Helm with something like a 3os Tiara of Wealth with 40ed/30goldfind to squeeze more out of each individual run.

Just need to keep at least one source of life leech, between eBOTD or Andy/CoT or CoH.



Yes. Phys Res in Hell is 50%.
No Curse, 100 damage becomes 50.
Decrep reduces it to 0%, 100 damage becomes 100.
Amp Damage makes it -50%, 100 damage becomes 150.

You get triple damage with Amp Damage relative to a no curse setup.

With reapers you can replace Andy's with a circ can't do that with arioc's. Save time and gold on repairs, save time walking with vigor (harmony) instead of gavel in between runs.



You only do 50% more damage then decrep not x3

Decrep doubles your damage.
Amp Damage triples your damage.

Pick one, I guess.



If you have the budget for a 3os Circ of Wealth you should be on eBOTD over Reaper's anyway.

With Arioc's + a circlet you can either Amn the Arioc's or use CoH (overkill). I use a CoH/Arioc's/3os setup right now but I can swap into eBOTD/Fort if I want more LL.

Again, Reaper's WILL CLEAR Hell Trav.
It'll just waste corpses, and be worse DPS than Arioc's or eBOTD + Gavel by a long shot.

Maybe relevant:

I've ran both and ariocs is way more powerful

Bro I thought reapers was better too...then I tried ariocs....way better. Great guide.. let the haters hate.

Fort while nice for dps, its just as bad as reapers for chance to shatter. should avoid both, coh is a viable option if you need that extra dps and ll, hades is meh if you need the ias etc. There comes to a point where you merc will just use wealth as end game due to the sheer dps/damage from weapon to clear p1

Also most play p1 to gold find, only time you run p7+ if you were baaling

How does it shatter corpses?
