ive heard about these and may try at some point but its kind of like why fix what aint broke? heph is easy, fast, aggros/tanks, never dies and its not like i need him doing anything else

also just to clarify: terrorized demons get higher level auras right? but player count doesn't get higher level auras, just auto cursed aura when p5+?



derp thank you for that



i usually opt for holy freeze for crowd control (sorcs/hdins) or defiance (smiter)
might wasn't something my builds needed but yeah I should have known

Ya I mean if you want a tank then heph is fine. But black lancer at higher mlvl and dmg is a tank + heralds boss/killer. It’s like having two act 2 mercs with you

I believe aura does not scale with tz. In tz just increased mlvl and dmg so demon becomes stronger and a tank overall, correct me if I wrong

ok fair, i'll have to really consider the black lancers then if they are as tanky as you say, my fear was they were NOT tanks at all but more just for damage.

i mean i've been scooping my cursed + might hephasto for over a month now and everytime I get a terrorized one I get 2k extra damage

the tz itself may not raise the aura lvls but at lvl 96 tzs or somewhere along the way from 85 i guess it must
