I want to gear my abjurer merc properly and wondered if anyone can tell me some of the stats that are not found on their char screen. What is their innate Energy factor and Energy? Do they gain SD from Energy and EF like normal chars? Can you increase the duration of their superbeast morph by + skills or increased buff duration? Are the breakpoints the ones from palas superbeast?

Thanks in advance!

Don't want to push back the previous question I can't answer, but i've a question of my own.

Previous question; What is that thing that I need to look for in the map to make sure im going in the right direction to the entrance of ureh? Someone explained it on youtube but I cant remember the title of that video.

My question; Does the phrase "Weapon Physical Damage" on both Lion Stance and Spirit Guide mean Physical Attack Damage or Enhanced Weapon Damage? If it's Physical Attack Damage, it should say that to be less confusing.

they have enough EF on their own, from docs:
Starts with 200 energy, +20 energy per level
Unearthly Power: +250 energy factor to spell damage, +5 per level


give them 30-35% Energy for max SD gain, rest sockets can be Nih runes to buff superbeast duration

I recently tested it - superbeast duration without Nihs was ~ 10s, with socketed Nihs ~ 30s

How recently? Because a recent patch specifically stated that superbeast no longer scales with duration.

this week, on TSW
changes were probably made only to paladin's skill and merc uses his own version - similar to MOTW (druid has fixed duration where generic duration buff doesn't help while for an oskill duration buff still works)

is it possible to socket my grizzly warp sword? it would be a lot nicer with p rainbows in it.

*edit* I know about larzuk obviously and cubing for sockets, I Just feel really reticent about cubing it with anything, as it was fucking expensive, and I would be BEYOND ANGRY, if I accidentally did something wrong and borked it.
