So I made a bow sorc last ladder. I'm wondering how to optimize that build for early ladder without infinity.

I already tested on non-ladder and seems viable without infinity using:

demon machine
vipermagi (fire facet)
flickering flame
mage fists
ravenfrost/nature peace/bk/fcr
razortail

My question is what merc should I use since I don't yet have the funds for infinity.
a5 plague, lawbringer, azurewrath? what other gear? Trechery arreats face?

insight merc as you should be going es on a bow sorc

soj + raven and go es

rest seems fine

also a 15 fcr amu to hit 63 fcr

you could go 2x plague on act5 merc as cheaper option, gonna be shit char without infi tho like any elemental char

-85 resist will likely double, if not tripple your damage in a lot of scenarios
