Ok, I have all key sets and ready to do the ubers duriel izual and lilith
Equipment is...
Beast with wizspike
Coh armor
G-face
Angelics
Raven
T-gods
Dracs
and Gores

The only thing I'm concerning is the merc's capability of surviving in this duel
(I'm not doing the Uber's trist yet, just the Ubers in 3 portals)
Merc Gear is...
Duress
Ethearl Crown of Thieves
and Obedience eth Cryptic axe

And this merc is a PRAYER merc, so he heals me
Just wondering if Prayer was the right choice, also curious about if it'll help with life regeneration when me and merc are poisoned?

And once again, many of you have helped me so and i indeed, appreciated your supports :clap:

He might survive against izzy if he has 75 cold res and you feed him potions
He will die instantly against duriel
He will die instantly against lilith, she delivers 1-2k+ physical damage in ONE hit

Even if you switch to might merc, which you should, they will still die near instantly

Prayer mercs are completely worthless in hell

if u have drac he will survive. mine never died once against those 3 guys but against the ubers he dropped like a fly.

A merc can't leech from life tap if he takes 3-4k damage in one physical hit of lilith or duriel.

to be honnest a merc wont make it i mean with my hammer pala me and my merc where able to beat uber duriel but he was a defence merc and did good dmg with the insight + my concentration aura but against lillith it wont cuz the poision nova dmg is high and if ur merc has crappy posion resisistance or u dont keep feeding him anitdotes and potions then he i will die.

also what would also help is if u boo ur merc i.e if u use a cta or something that will help or (assumming this is a barb u can boo it)

well no idea but mine never died against the 3 individuals bosses. he uses eth coh, eth doom and eth delerium. he is a might merc. and i give him fana and cta stuff and defiance from exile.

Change him for a might merc the increase in damage is very nice and it lets you leech more than the life gain from prayer.

even a defence 1 is good as well cuz it will help boost ur defence and if u add ur bo to it will be great
