question about normal merc.

I have a fishymancer in act 2 now, and because the might merc can be found only in NM, i was asking myself which merc to pick before having that might merc in NM?

I'd go with a Defiance (defensive) merc: Prayer won't be much help since your skellies have more than enough life and can easily be replaced, and they should have good enough AR so won't need BAim... but more defence should mean they get hit less often.

Defiance is probably best but if you find that your skellies are tough enough that you aren't having to recast them often you could think about going back to Act 1 and getting a cold rogue - get her a good bow and, with your skellies acting as a meat shield, she can really speed up the time it takes to go through mobs.

It's a viable option until the Might Merc becomes available and she's particularly useful in Act 5 for mopping up those irritating teleporters.

Atm i got a cold rogea yeah of lvl 14 :)
And none of my skellies died through act 1, so maybe idd i could pick the rogea,
maybe a good socketed bow with some emerald in it would do the job?

You shouldnt have any trouble going thru the game without a merc if your a Skellimancer, so it doesnt matter that much. :D

Pick one with a cool name, or one from Act3 :lol:

On the serious side, Defiance would be the best, until you get the Might merc
