ok so a few question guys ;

infinity on merc is a MUST?
IG already rolled into a insight so no need on my merc... is there anything better then infinity? even if conviction dont lower poison res (I think? If I believe some google research)

does the set up with hoto for 125fcr + infinity on merc rivalise with the set up death web with 75fcr?

what sunder should I grab? only poison? or fire? physical?

anyways, if a otp poison wanna give me some toughts on the build i'd appreciate :)

so far im running

dw
spirit
shako
arach
double fcr ring
chancies
wt
nigma

for high mf build, if u have better idea Im listening :)

Infinity is mainly for corpse explosion, doesnt lower pr indeed

Alternative good option is an act5 merc with 2x cmoon phase blade griffon cham coh setup for constant static procs (summons will help keeping him alive)

Or like 1x eth cryptic 1x phase blade was the best one iirc

However that one is only worth if consistently playing on p8

I’d only get fire and psn sunderer probably (not too sure on this one)

Don't bother with any sender's for poison necro

Nothing will hold a candle to dweb set up

Yes you use infinity merc , there's nothing better

Not always 100% right but will find some tips.

To get the perfect information about everything, you have to ask:

yes, infinity is needed in merc

ideal build is most -psn res as possible—dweb, 3/20/2 circ with 2* facets, 3-piece trangs (shield, belt, gloves) for the -res set bonus

psn/fire sunder

This but I wouldn’t bother with fire sunder. Most fire immunes will die to psn nova anyways and CE is only half fire dmg anyways so you already have 2 dmg types. Resists are also fairly tricky to max - with 2 sunders it would be brutal. You need the resists too since it’s one of the squishiest/ most vulnerable builds in the game but a good margin
