Anyone else tried other bowa with merc spec?

Maybe Faith with LW and Lawbringer or LW and Grief for boss help?


Used your guide for my pvm spec and ceejays for pvp, doing runs with her now, it's a ton of fun.

Kimsulki84 - D2R 2.4 New Pure TeleBowa GMB15 Faith + Eth Reaper Merc Spec - P8 Chaos Solo

Picked up a 15/1/3 330ED GMB Faith to do this run and share. Obviously it's not 345ED so there's a few dmg missing from the perfect Faith but it's a very small difference in reality.

You need to use Nos Belt and Highlord to hit the 95% IAS breakpoint for 7 frame which is one of the reasons why I do not like GMB Faith.

Still with the ED buff in 2.4, it clears very well. I can tell you if you play right, this eth reapers might merc surpasses Pride merc for GMB Faith set up as well. You need to use Teleport to use reapers merc offensively to really take the advantage of the decrepitly curse which lowers 50% Physical Resistance of the mobs as well as their damage and speed.

The Eth Reapers Merc especially shines with Diablo fight. The P1 is a cake so it doesn't matter what you have for merc but for P8 Diablo for Physical bowzon, it's really the hardest thing of the runs.

Overall, I still believe Shadow is the BEST Faith for 2.4 for pure bowzon since you can run Atma ammy and Razortail for 100% pierce which are by far the BEST two gears for physical bowa to effectively clear P8 runs.

Yessir. As a pure bowa, you have so many points to play with even with the synergies on the Multi/GA/Strafe so I usually max out the Crits.

Did some damage comparison between GMB/Mat/Shadow for fun since I had them

Bows for the comparison:

GMB 15/1/3 330ED (1 all skill doesn't matter for the damage. 15ED is not a big difference)
Mat 15/2/3 345ED
Shadow 15/2 345ED


Damage difference:

GMB
Multi 837-4468
Strafe 1270-6862
Guided 1255-6779

Shadow
Multi 904-4151
Strafe 1364-6323
Guided 1346-6230

Mat
Multi 1132-3626
Guided 1711-5512
Strafe 1729-5572

GMB has Nos belt since it needs that to hit 95IAS for 7 Frame.

Shadow and Mat have Razortail which has 10 Max Damage and 15 Dex. Shadow only need 65% IAS, Mat needs 45% IAS.

Should a act 5 merc work to??

With lastwish/lawbringer (might/decrepify)

Together with the faith aura it will be a great help against bosses i think
And im kinda sick of the old act 2 merc

I had the exact idea!!!! Was looking to pick up LW to try it pair up with Lawbringer.

Then my buddy told me what I had forgotten about LW. It has high level lifetap. Haha lifetap and decriptify will constantly overwrite.

Such a shame. That was going to be the most GG merc set up for physical bowa.
