In the guide it says "You can trade gold for fg at a 1:1 ratio"... Obviously a typo, but I'm wondering what is the actual ratio, if there is one?


i think its 1mill : 1 fg

lol another typical gf barb build..they make them all the same and still rely on a merc to kill and still get crapy gold.

my barb gets average 400-500k run and good runs close to a million, why you ask its cause i do most the killing and still takes me less time then 44 seconds. the merc wont drop the same amount gold when he kills as the barb would so why do that? and ontop that i dont just hit up trav since the standard gf gear has mf , i make good use of all the gf barb has to offer and found plenty of good items.

you have all that gf% make use of it. and i highly doubt you do your runs in 44seconds with a merc and you have no tele . to correct the merc to make him attack instead of walking around or into walls, ontop that amp and or conviction =dead merc what you gona do with dual lem swords? slap the councile? lol.

but hey what ever works for you.

Couple of things:

(No idea if it was mentioned since I can't be ****'d to read all ten pages) but PMH does NOT work on your merc. At all. Ever.

I also hate the idea of letting the merc do the killing, and agree that a GF/MF barb is the way forward to run Hell Council biggrin.gif

im also big fan of goldbabas

few things to mention:
1. go hell wtf, even when merc kills it takes only ~1,5 mins a run and you get more gold and better drops
2. nn full inv, keep atleast 8 free slots to pick up intresting items(found shitloads of nice rares in travi)
3. if gold baba is based on merc i would badly recommend teleport to place your merc where he should be, cuz merc is often a pretty stupid thingy biggrin.gif ( enigma or teleport amu, i got myself a 2 baba, res, life, 5x eg teleport amu)
4. first i also made a pure gold baba , but now i switched my setup to gold/mf thats way more effective (aka alis"lemlem" instead of lem swords)
5. 08 wts >all other boots 100eg/45 mf biggrin.gif
6. 3 sock xx eg circ or ik helm "lemlem" > cot, i use myself a 215 eg circ on my nl goldbaba and a ik helm on my ladder one


else its nice build and pretty itemlame goldbaba wink.gif

How did you guys go about leveling your mercs?

I cant really kill much solo, will I need to get a nice weapon and start auto attacking things?

sorry if someone said this already or whatever, but what happens when one of the council is physical immune? u cant berserk cause you only have 2 lem swords.
personally i maxed berserk, and use leap so that my merc can kill much easier.

I like to know how to make hell travi runs. One guy said me he get 500-100k each run easily and I think its better cuz u even get more gold and u can have gossu drops as scs runes or rares / uniqs

please, say me what I should change to kill them. my merc can't kill them with ur gear.

I opened a topic to ask to:
