Destruction is a very bad runeword. A lot of fireworks but crap damage.

pointless and much worse than a 1h grief + shield

best would probably be a botd gt or something

I think it'll be fun to wield a big weapon and zeal mobs with fanat!

Meta builds are pointless to me ;)

Not optimized yet, but a rough plan is below:

The Reaper's Toll is the main weapon. You should be defensive here because you have no shield. (And you definitely want some DR.)

And you use conviction as your main aura, so that you don't have to worry about AR (vs bosses etc, as ITD on Reaper's Toll doesn't apply to bosses etc.)

Then you need 99 IAS for 6/6/6/6/10 attacks.

Armor: Treachery. 45ias, fade(res & DR), fhr and venom(poison dmg)

Helm: CoA(IAS/ED jewel x 2). +1, res and DR

Belt: SoE. DR, LL and MDR

Ammy: Highlord's. 20 IAS, +1, DS and light dmg (if you have Tele Amy, then use it!)

Rings: Raven Frost, Wisp(Lightning and light absorb, BK, Dwarf etc

Gloves: 10 or more IAS (LoH, Lava Gout, Bloodfist, CB gloves etc)

Boots: Gore Rider

Wait! No mana leech? Well, sock pskul into your weapon. (Or Shael and put an ML ring instead.)

Merc should use a weapon with massive elemental dmg, such as Crescent Moon, Rift, Azurewrath, Harmony, Ice etc.

Hmmm... I might make one 😆

lol yeah im just thinking about new builds i can make that ive never done b4. thinking abut making a harmony bow zon or chantress so i can revive monsters that shoot exploding or fire arrows and chant them. also might make a bow necro that uses brand and maxes bone spear synergys. or high MF barb. or trangs necro. and ofc ive never made a zeal sorc. if another sorc chants u u benefit from double fire mastery which only works with melee weps. I dont plan on making any bear chars cuz having to transform and then not being able to cast skills is kind of a pain. for some reason i always wanted to make a bear druid just to see how much life i could get lol. oh yeah im also getting items for what i call a flee merc. I use upped face of horror and upped rattlecage with a great bow that has chance to flee. is there any possible use for this? prolly not lol. but maybe it could help me on uber runs if the merc doesnt die really fast. if it does i could use a a2 merc with coa/smoke and the face of horror with a polearm that has chance to flee like steelgoad. which has a whopping 75% chance to flee
