merc gear help

Hi, i have 1 question I have a lvl 95 might merc, and the question is if i equip CoH and andys visage will he have lvl24 might. Or is it better to equip fort+guallimes? O, and i am skellimancer. Also, if the merc does get lvl 24 might, is there any difference for skellies, or a lvl 20 might is better with fort+guallimes.
 
Re: merc gear help

The +skills will boost Might, and it will improve skellie damage. I would use Guillame's and Fort, though. I assume that you're using CE, so the most important thing is to get the first corpse fast, then you can spam CE. If you're not using CE, then it's a bit harder to say which is better, but I'd expect that G/F is still better.
 
Re: merc gear help

Fort is a widely overrated merc armor, especially for a summoner. the +skills and the strength on CoH both add to the merc's damage, the difference in first corpse speed is, in the worst case against a normal or even a champion mob, 1 hit. meanwhile the CoH offers loads of defensive utility from damage reduction and life leech that G/F just doesn't have. the extra resists are very useful if the summoner ever finds themselves facing a conviction aura or a lower resists curse as well. A summoner likely saves more time having the merc die a few times less with CoH on than they do in first corpse speed with fort.
