might vs hf for javazon?

[NitecryXI]

for an untwinked Javazon using mostly lightning fury/charged strike, should I use a might merc (boost to physical dmg to take care of LIs) or a holy freeze merc (slowing LIs down so I can jab along with my valk + merc)?

many thx!

Holy Freeze scatter the monster, you want them packed for fury. Most of the dangerous LI are range attack type, i.e:Souls, Rogue Archer, Tainted(Minotaur like creature). HF ain't helping much unless you teleport right on top of them.

on the other hand, might only increases the throwing/melee damage from your javalins, which isn't really that much compared to the lightning damage. (i'm not 100% sure of this)

So, it might be better to get a defiance merc, since you're basically using it as a tank anyway

Insight Prayer merc would work best, I think, till you get a Infinity merc, probably Defiance then.

Insight Prayer would double up on the health regen, they stay alive very well even when they cant leech, and they regen your health too.

how come the suggested merc tends to be towards the defensive instead of the offensive merc?

- It is Normal/Hell Defensive purchase, so he is made to be defender. But, it is also sad that 'behinde every great offense lies good defense', so he's also a first step towards a 'great offense' =)
