Bowazon strafe high end gear and merc advices.

Hi. I continue build my Bowazon:
1). I decided try use merc from ACT I with

Cold Arrow. (My Bowazon has only physic dmg).
I think best option for weapon is offcourse Faith with fanatism but what the rest of gear ?
Have any advices about

Helm and armor for this kind of merc ?
I thinking about use Vampir Gaze ,but dont have any idea what armor should be best,
2) If i decide use merc from ACT II What aura is best option ? Same question about gear to this kind of merc.
3)My Bowazon use

weapons: Faith/Call To Arms + Spirit
gloves: Lying of Hands

\if you make that kind of builds you must have more details about wchich build is better. I have Faith and WF now. But thinking: Is good idea make Pride? When i wear Faith ,i have little problems with mana steal (i know revenfrost out, dulal leech add), but resistances are not bad (2grand charms i use are 15 all res ,+life 30+-)when use Wf(15ias/15maxdmg), no problems with life/mana ,Knockbaks is great. But feel lost this resistances. Another problems: Valkyria minimum lvl ,in my plan (and other passives) is not enought. I cannot decide ,which option is better. I think: I must check boath . I can make test

Windforce ,+ ACT 1

Cold Arrow merc with Faith ,but dont know, what armor is best option. Dont know value off...
Pride can have very bad roll. And must buy

Lo from somewhere, Cannto make decision,
Bla Bla Bla

both setups r v close basically same dmg im using

Multiple Shot
wf and Faith setup is faster ias Faith and Pride got les ias but u can swap Faith Pride setup

Belt for nosferatu for extra 10 ias but coa with extra 30ias makes huge difference my rings is

Raven Frost and wf amas using 2nd ring 8life leech and alot resistance Faith maa got 2nd ring dual leech got like only 5mana and 6life but its enuf for easy clears never got [roblems with mana or hp leech and my wf is socketed with 15ias/max jewel

Thats forgot write this in option "ACTII Merc) ,but look on the screen .I have Andy in my chest.
But you right. My bad.

It's cool nice setup tho I have a zon 2 just missing visage on mine running my icyhot sorc with 373 mf n can't find jack

on trade sec ago
look at this

Merc Act 2 Might with Pride imo.
A second Faith from merc won't help cause fanatism from you and your merc won't stack, the higher-level one wins.

If your looking for cold damage for the merc, perhaps

Ormus robes with a cold facet, or a 4os armor with 4 cold facets. Nightwings with a cold facet/ias jewel.
Also I think it's better one of you use Faith and the other use Mist, not both Faith(fanat is wasted, it doesn't stack).

cold damage is a waste imo,

Magic Arrow with a few points will give more overall damage since they buffed the % of physical that turns to magic damage. Once you have enough physical damage the % turned to magic is more than enough to take down most physical immunes. Plus there are way few magic immunes than cold immunes so you have better coverage

I second this.

Magic Arrow is reliable on p1 with only a few points

Ok i take your adiveces den and i try make Pride for merc (damn i but base with socket for 4X

WHAT ARMOR is best then Fortitude ? or somthing else ?

Treachery is better and cheaper

You can try Duress, assuming you mean an armor cheaper than Fortitude but good for melee builds. Fortitude is pretty much the best for most melee builds though.

I'm having a hard time understanding your replies in general, so not sure if that's what you're asking...

Why don't you consider

War Traveler? The 15-25 damage are added directly on weapon damage.
