What would be best dmg option for merc for psn nekro (not including infi merc).

Atm using:
GFace with 15ias/30fr helmet
Eth Treachery
Eth Reapers Toll with Sheal

Is there any BETTER option after merc changes? Better dps/crown control ?

Infinity is the best item in the game. You aren't going to beat it.

For your character yes. For your merc no.

Infinty also lowers bosses defense. So he hits a lot more.

frenzy merc is best for dps. they are good with budget items like crescent moon and lawbringer. you can use dual voice of reason to make a cold caster. i would go last wish, destruction if budget isn't an obstacle. you could just use 2x grief pb a fort and gface for pure dps. you could go 3 forts and a coa for a indestructible merc. 2 forts and a grief would be good 2.
