Faith merc

Ok all,

I came across a Faith bow yesterday (player just gave it to me!) and currently as mentioned in a couple other threads I'm making yet another furywolf(I like to tinker with the build).

Anyway, I thought about why not going and getting one of the rogues from act 1 and equipping her with it. I figure one of the rogues from NM can't be THAT BAD, they seem to stay out of the fray anyway. Pretty decent runeword bow and I figure fant. aura can't hurt my furywolf anyway right. Even if I have hit max AS the extra "oooph from fant. can't hurt. I figure she might even be able to help in places like the IM infested chaos Sanc.

Your thoughts????

it certainly wont be a bad thing, only make sure to see its made in a non-amazon only bow, else the rogue wont be able to carry it

Yes true, I figured I wouldn't get anymore AS out of it but more damage means things die faster....:grin:

Yeah, but Rogue pathing sucks. With my Hunter if I move a step forward she strolls forward into the nearest enemy pack then tries to run, losing half her health >.>

Act-1 Bow Mercenary is not a very wise choice since you can get better aruas from another mercenary and if your thinkin she will be nice for killin monsters in chaos sancuary cuz she is immune to IM think again , she wont kill very fast and a fury wolf shouldnt be MFing chaos anyway.

Honestly , your best option will be to hire a Act-2 mercenary (Offense (Nightmare): Might)

He can be geared up with inexpensive gear and still perform great.

All you need is Vampire Gaze helm , Reapers Toll socketed with Amn rune , and a Shaftstop. If you can afford it a ethereal Vampire Gaze with a Cham rune is a great option. The Decrepify curse works wonders for the faster kill power and physical immune breaking and his Might aura is nice also.

Ok guys,

So my faith bow goes to donated items heap....:undecided:

Well on the up side I already have shaftstop, reapers and an amn rune on a mule....will have to find a Vamp gaze and other rune though....

I tend to stop using my merc in HELL difficulty because he was costing me my stash in gold to keep bringing him back, although I must admit I was not giving him the BEST items to keep him alive.

I NEVER Mf with my FURYWOLF as this is a joke, but I thought having one of the little ladies sitting back and lobbing arrows in to the crowd of death knights would help take some of them out before they had a chance to cast GODFORSAKEN IM on me. :angry:

:grin:

Anyway, thanks guys for the responses!
