Is "Grit" (https://docs.median-xl.com/doc/class/hirelings) from the act 2 mercenary merely physical reduction, or global damage reduction ?

which is great for my warlock, but I'm confused about "Symphony of destruction". It says it gives 5 points to it, but as far as I can see this literally does nothing as the skill is capped at 1 point anyway. Any ideas?

Also, the teleport skill of the paladin also does nothing if you put more points into it, except consume more mana?

Does anyone know of any updated bowazon guide? Really want to give it a try, but most of the guides on here are outdated, and since i don't want to play a sorceress, i have to go by something else :D

Make 20 of the same and throw them into the cube and you will get a fragment.

So normal like you get. You put a 20 and you've got a piece, three pieces and you've got a trophy. If the charm has a trophy.

Thank you, so if my merc have an item with -20% enemy fire resistence, his fire spells will pierce their targets as well, this is what i was trying to understand, i know that his items with pierce wont benefit myself.
Thank you again.

Theres one skill on the Mastery that increases the maximum SP by every 2 levels on it, so you can put 5 more points into it later on, also iirc theres an uber that gives maximum skill points, just dont remember which one is it.
Teleport is a one pointer skill, dont put points into it.
