hey guys i never really used mercs in median too much until now and im experimenting a little bit. I just wanted to know what people think are the best mercenary setups for median xl specifically for farming setups. im playing a pally and so far i like the sisters since i found an ssu short bow. the low level punisher rw bow is also amazing for mercs i have found.

My favorite merc setup;
A2 Fightermage w/
1.) t16 see summoner trident for Gnova proc
2.) Toorc icefist gloves for Gnova proc
3.) Anything/ everything that increases buff/debuff/cold resistences (psaph, mo rings/ammy)
4.)-199 enemy cold
But, realistically, a5 barb with probs just a shortsword might be just as fast clearer, if not faster. pls nrf a5merc

Current merc I have with my wolf druid:
Wulfgar (such a fitting name):
Crafted Flamberge, full socketed Sha for max ias breakpoints - 50% balefire, 16% spike nova, 16% miasma all on attack
High cold
And currently
All sockets besides weap are Xar runes for 2% max life.
His procs cleaned up all straggler DCows behind me en route to 121. It was incredible. Proc fest, so hopefully your comp could handle it, but fun merc build.
Also just thrown together, but it worked well.
Edit: all orbed with % Total Char Defense.
