merc decision,need help

[psmuk]

hi all,im just starting to make my poison/summoner and gonna use full trangs.full trangs gives about 30 replenish life and i was wondering if i should get a prayer merc,thing is i dont know how much life he would replenish at high levels,i never hear anyone say about having a prayer merc they always go for defiance or holy freeze, would his prayer and trangs life replen be worthwhile together? if not any suggestions would be graetfull,thx

prayer is useless, ur skellies have a lot of natural regen, the act2 offensive might merc is ur only option.

thx for quick response and advice, just thought it might help when i got poisoned or hit from a few stray arrows and spikes as i will be away from the melee, but will go for a might merc thx

might merc no doubt... more damage skeles > any kind of regen, just chug down some pots if you need'm...

The only reason you would use prayer is insight. But insight is useless to a full trang necro anyways. Besides, your weakish skeles REALLY need that boost.

Throw a Pride spear on a act 2 might merc!
Skelies will throw out great dmg. Prayer on the merc works to slowly anyhow IMO

I have used might and holy freeze and like them both. If you have good skellies ( say AoKL and some other gear to prebuff them) then might is good, if you skellies suck and you only have them to keep stuff off you while your poison works then holy freeze may be a better choice, If you give your merc reapers they slow to a crawl (downside decrept may cut off your LR before you get your nova off). I finally settled on holy freeze because I moved my A list summoning gear to may new summoner (if I find another AoKL I may go back to might) and insight because it does great damage, the extra mana helps out in parties and it is cheap.
