Has anyone tried out 2 x Voice of Reason on an act 5 merc with an fohdin?
I would work pretty well with the conviction aura as a budget merc

I thought about using Plague (cleansing aura) and lawbringer

I was thinking that as well but lower resistance is based on being struck and the act 5 mercs are pretty tanky
With Voice of Reason it is on striking which will cast frozen orbs and ice blasts. These should do a decent amount of damage with the conviction aura coming from me

I'm not using conviction aura with my foh because the light dmg sucks

I go for fana aura to increase my merc dmg

have you tried to use griffons ?

your topic is interesting.
so have you used that 2x swords - btw. i guess due to the cold and free it should to be very nice.

btw:
i tried for a5 on foh pala (with conviction aura / griffons and 125fcr setup (150 with griffon):

grief+ lawbringer
Grief + plague
grief + unbending will

i think without the grief his dmg is not so strong, i dont tested the eth heatstriker.

lawbringer is nice but it kicks out the ghost caster from first seal in cs, so i prefer grief+plague for the aura and lower res on proc.

lmk.
thanks.

Using eth Headstriker and plague

Dmgwise headstriker > grief


I don’t use the light dmg from foh because it is only single dmg. Going for Fans aura to push my merc
