Some fishy q's

Hey all, got a lvl 74 fishy atm with maxed raise, mastery and ce, prereqs for curses up to decrep, and have been raising summ resist, g mastery and iggy. My question is mostly about my merc and my (future) iggy.

Right now my merc has duriels, tals (found a sweet eth crown of thieves for him tho) and an infinity. I happen to have both the infinity and a pride now, so i was wondering what the experts prefer on their merc, and also if anyone had experience with an ig made from either. What would be the best way to go here? Thanks for the help, DF
 
Re: Some fishy q's

i would give pride on merc since it will boost skelies damage

and i wouldnt make an ig out of either of them, while handy i have seen a few posts about igs poofing inbetween games :(
 
Re: Some fishy q's

Thx Kalk, wasnt aware of the poofing issue with them, that would suck quite a bit. Know of anything decent to make them with that won't dent the wallet if they DO go bye bye?
 
Re: Some fishy q's

insight? would be handy for mana when your spaming CE or teleing with nigma
or i have heard the IK weapon is good for makeing them (not sure)

you should look around the fourms about "poofing" as far as i know it can still happen but it could have been fixed but still i wouldnt risk it
liike just imagen (cant spell :p) if you made him out of infinity and were in game and in a hurry and by mistake hit IG skill and respawned him on something crap :O




PS all this info i have is just from reading posts here, i have never used IG because iam too cheap to use good items :p
 
Re: Some fishy q's

LOL! ya, infinty to isenharts would blow hehe, but thx for the suggestion on insight, i tend to overlook that one for some reason, and having just got enigma for him i DO need the mana o.0

between ce and the merc infinity is a much better source of damage than pride, even without mages. pride offers higher physical damage at a cost of CB and CE damage, not really a good trade off in my opinion. there was a thread a while back comparing the two against one another vs the ubers and the only uber pride was better against was meph because the conviction doesn't work on him.


 
Re: Some fishy q's

As far as mercs go, Infinity is the best choice, no question. Conviction has the dual advantage of lowering enemy defense to improve the chance to hit on your skeles, as well as making your CE more powerful. Additionally, it's got some nice CB on it which will help you out during boss fights.

As far as the IG goes, I would never make it out of anything expensive. They have an annoying tendency to poof randomly and they do occasionally get killed. If you think it's worth it to keep a big collection of Insights around, then go for it, but I gave up on IGs long ago and just stick to my Clay Golem.

Go for pride, you can just buy beltful of potions for mana.¨
Insight works alot better for a hammerdin
 
Re: Some fishy q's

If I had the choice, I would use the Infinity over anything else. Surely, it will increase your overall kill speed more than any other merc weapon. It gives better hitting skeletons, more CE damage, good CB enhanced damage on merc, and more damage from mages--what other merc weapon can beat that?
