i have no interest in damage from my demon tbh
just so they dont die and can gib aura/amp


Solves the bit where echoing strike has great damage but not great aoe size, while blood boil has great aoe size but not so great boss killing.
Max inventory and boss reduced to -100/-100 I get my blood boil to 27k hp lost per cast so 19 casts from all blood boils is 513k enough to kill p8 diablo but about 1/4 of baal's hp
Having a spearwoman doing 20k+ per attack, ideally with holy freeze + curse while my merc has might+infinity, that would jab bosses enough to kill them without me even attacking
Also a bit curious if the game lets you lock in a bind demon level when cast so you could swap in some specific gear for it

Alright, can confirm put a Dream helm on merc for holy shock, it does work to proc hephisto amp dmg

Added another 15k to my dmg on top of might/concentration

tested this over river on a3 and it DOES'NT work - maybe its been patched :(
merc dream holy shock DOES NOT proc heph amp dmg from cursed
only when HEPH has hf or hs it procs (without having to attack)

this guy knows whats up. fire has the best radius of the three. holy fire cursed ftw!


yes, holy fire with cursed is easily the best. anyone else who thinks otherwise is retarded
