Hi Fam,

im running my psn nec quite good.
Currently insight golem and a act2 might merc with a cv hustle.
For Travi i use reapers on him.

What would be the best option?
Infintiy - BOTD ?

Help would be nice..

Thx

Infinity. But on a budget you can try and swap insight and hustle between your merc and golem.

thx

but i read through some reddit post - and a doom in a 5 eth mancatcher would be the better option?
lower res doesnt apply to psn i thought..
What would be the benefit of infinity?

Oo

big bump to your corpse explosion damage

big bump to his own damage

you lost me at saw a post on Reddit

lol

Im new in the necro world ^^

infi

if lazy insight

Doom Merc to freeze all enemies for less corpses? Reddit ftw

your right - makes no sense ^^
thx all!

the bis is infinity whether you want to max corpse explosion damage or have your merc kill bosses faster, because the -87% defense helps it hit so much more reliably against act bosses and proc CB more than a 100% CB build would.
sadly even if you did get it up to 95% chance to hit and high dps and 100% cb a merc still tickles bosses because of the damage penalty and blocking
big problem with corpse explosion is that once a necro is fully geared, poison nova tends to 1-2 tap mobs on its own, meaning its almost never worth wasting casting time on corpse explosion when even just refreshing nova duration deals more damage per click


you can of course use an act 3 lightning merc with griffs and 15x facets because past -150% resists and pray he casts static field since against P8 hell diablo he winds up around ~700-750 hp per cast of lightning / charged bolt, but between 50-100% hp his static should do about ~29000-58000 per cast
