Im currently running a item find barb, so I am weak.
I think I should run Might Merc (A2), but what gear?
Please tell me I am wrong, but I believe he should wear Andy with 15 ias jewel, then eth forty armor, and what weapon? BOTD? Eth Reapers Toll?

Reaper destroys corpses, so you don't want that.

beautiful gear =D

my barb can stun enemies with war cry, so i would like to focus on 100% damage

Im between

Guilla or Andy
Forty or Treachery
BOTD is probably the best weapon

Okay, so for damage.
Eth fort yea

Yeah, probably Eb OTD. But unless you can get something similar damage, wise with deadly strike.

a2 might merc
eth botd/3os eth tomb reaver socket with ias/ed jewels/bers/los etc depends on your preferences and other stuff for high ias bp
eth coh/eth forti higher dmg but imo 20% ctc chilling armor it's not good choice for horker/eth wealth/eth treachery
eth stealskull chamed/gface chamed/andys face chamed

a5 frenzy merc
grief pb/last wish pb/lawbringer pb/king slayer pb etc depends on your preferences and other stuff for high ias bp
eth coh/eth forti higher dmg but imo 20% ctc chilling armor it's not good choice for horker/eth wealth/eth treachery
eth stealskull chamed/gface chamed/arreats face chamed/andys face chamed

I'm not saying it's "Strongest Merc Build Possible" but it works very good
