Remember that Zeal is a fast attack so damage doesnt have to be very high to be effective.

+ Schaefer's has chance to cast static field which helps ALOT.

Not sure how much IAS you have, but you may want to check out the German weapon speed calculator to see if you are hitting the fastest breakpoint. Even with Fanat and Zeal, Schaefers requires a pretty good bit of IAS to get to 4fpa. If you are already there then no problems, but otherwise you may want to consider socketing a few 15% ias jewels into your gear, as well as using some IAS gloves if neccesary, though I think that you will be better served with the life tap on Dracul's Grasp. Your damage is fine though, especially bearing in mind that you are casting Static Field every couple of hits, which should be boosting your effectiveness nicely.

Thank you very much for your help.

I have only 20% IAS from the Schaefer's and I have lvl 23 Fanaticism. I know lvl 20 give 35% IAS. Thats about it. I had been using a b star and a lightsaber phase " two very fast weps" so IAS was never a thought.

But I will take your advice..

I would suggest you get yourself some Dracul's Grasp gloves as the CTC Life Tap will save you and your merc many, many times.

Highlord's Chance would be a better Amulet - +1 skills, 20% IAS and Deadly Strike (chance to do double damage).

Guillaume's Face would be a better combination if you also had some Gore Riders...

Your setup is very good however, with a little tweaking it could be a bit better as well.

As others stated, your damage doesn't need to be that high as you will be hitting many times quickly...and quickly is the operative word...

Schaeffer's to me is a dedicated build, your own Zealot would be better off with a Stormlash (which incidently only requires 20% more IAS with lvl 20 Fanatacism) - however it is a bugger to get - a good and cheap alternative is the Crescent Moon runeword in a Phase Blade!

:thumbsup: Good Luck!
