![]() Huge ED is not something that comes easily to a merc and though IAS is good for mercs that are used as appliers of elemental damage (enchanted mercs,for example) or good CTC (amp, and of course decrep) it seems like Fortitude is much stronger. But I think the two runewords are in completely different strata- Treachery is good bang-for-the-buck and feasible to make untwinked, whereas Fortitude is really top-level wealth and much stronger than Treachery. I'm a big defender of Treachery, but also a Vanilla player, so I can't properly compare. My guess is that fortitude will at least double your damage while treachery is definetly not going to take you from 12 fpa to 6fpa or something like that. Just look at the damage numbers with and without fortitude and then compare that to the fpa with and without treachery and you've got a pretty good idea of what's going on. Because more often than not, I can fit crushing blow and fortitude on my merc if I really need his help vs the act boss. Honestly, if you merc has trouble surviving, give him a delirium hat to go with the foritude.Īgainst act bosses, I can sort of see the point with treachery, but I am hard pressed to think of any of my builds that would go with treachery over fortitude even for that. And that's not even assuming you made it in an eth armour specifically for the merc. The extra defence from shiver armour and 1500 base defence alone more than make up for that bit of DR he gets from fade. ![]() It could be a decent stand-in until you have a fortitude, but my merc always killed more and survived better with fortitude. Honestly, I cannot see treachery being better in any scenario. Re: Fortitude vs Treachery for Merc's Armor
