saw a couple of threads, one saying use eth bonehew and socket it with dual lem
but if this was the case you'd just use eth 3s tombreaver

saw one saying botd and coh

one saying bonehew and wealth


coz as i understand it, merc goldfind stacks with the players, but is it really worth putting any goldfind stuff on a merc and risking him being squidgy




would love to hear some opinions on armor mainly. helm, cot thats a given, maybe with ral inside to stack against the fire.

My ultimate setup, if you play it my way

Ebotd war pike
Kira's guardian um
Treachery and hope the fade trigger before he dies
If you have trouble using treachery, use eth guardian angel for fireproof against hydra damage

Always use amplify damage from gavel of pain on switch.

i could use gavel for amp ye
wasnt plannong on using any physical attack though, was going to use howl and warcry for stun and just let merc trash them

I have heard, that it is the same gold at nightmare difficulty

So it is easier to do nm travi runs in enough gold equip and warcry enemies to stun them

And fi after

The deal is, it is much faster, but you get less gold. The other negative factor is you miss out on the opportunity to get high runes and other high-end gear drops.

The most Gold Find would be a straight forward question & easy to calculate. (A5 barb dual wielding)
"Best" is subjective unless you qualify the terms.

Obviously there is a balance in Killspeed, Survivability, & Goldfind and the answer will also depend on your Main Character's setup and your own play style.

I mean you lose corpses from the Reanimation, but if it's between Bonehew and Tomb... I'd still take Tomb.
