Lightning sorc with merc vs Nihlathak?
Hi. I got this lightning sorc (with orb as sidekick) that I do Countess- and Summonerruns with. I would like to do Nihlathakruns too, but I've never done a single Nihlathakrun, so I don't know what to expect.
Thing is that I need the merc for Insight, but he will provide corpses for Nihlathak, which isn't good for any of us.
What to do about that?
Would it be an idea to give the merc a low insight weapon in order to give him a bit leech (enough for surviving while tanking), while keeping his killing power low (fewer corpses this way)?
Okay, this is my build (lvl **) and gear:
Max orb.
1 CM.
Max Lightning.
Max CL.
Max LM.
1 TS.
1 Teleport.
Rest in CB.
+3 lightning circlet.
+3 lightning amu with 14 life.
25% unsocketed viper.
33% spirit monarch.
35% spirit sword.
waterwalk 46.
fcr belt.
magefist.
2 x rare rings with res all, str, dex and mana. (one will be exchanged with Nature's peace ofc).
Can't remember my res (I'm thinking of using a wz accually). Socket's will most likely be sol runes I guess.
My total fcr is 123+ (I know the bp's, however).
Well, I hope I recieve some advise on what to do. But please don't tell me to just smack on a Nature's Pease and see if it works, as I don't have this item. And I really don't want to trade for it only to find out that a sorc with a merc can't handle Nihlathak.
