Not really any new or changed mechanic. And not a glitch or bug in any way.
This has been baller for an A2 Insight merc for ages. Though yeah, the addition of Cure does make it even better..for you..the merc loses a ton of survivability by comparison as you Sacrifice his leech for it, among other things. Or even worse, you're getting armor leech which means you're sacrificing fort for all of this, resulting in massive performance loss on the merc. At least from a late-game performance. Early to mid, it is a very solid solution.
The "it says it has a syn but it doesn't tell you what it is!" part kinda cracks me up though..I mean..it literally tells you in line 4 of the tooltip.
(or it would, beyond "0", if you actually put any pts into Prayer)
Actually had 2 of my builds use a Prayer merc for ages now for exactly this synergy.
On the others though, the Sacrifice for it isn't worth it. And even on the two that do use Insight/Prayer, neither one will get Cure as that is always too high a cost for not enough gain.
Only for end game build when you give him CoH and you sorc is strong enough.
For budget and mid gear, he should die quite often because of low res or no leech.

Hey I just watched this and found it super useful, apparently Prayer tree auras synergy and stack on act 2 mercs:
well I already made that helmet RW and now I am searching Eth base for Insight, I will definitelly try. I have sorc so this would mean a lot
and poison is just annoying sometimes I really have to go to town to visit healer.
So far I am happy with my act5 merc he can solo a lot (but for some reason he still dies to hydras).

I have tried it. Sadly my merc Fortitude is in armor which requires 220str. Se Emilio cant wear it, with duriels shell he was just bad. So I am back to act5.
But if u are melee and using dracs gloves then he has life leech and it can be doable.

Use another base, not Sacred Armor or any high str requirement.
A Sup EthArchon Plate can give +800 def while requires only 93 str.

well I dont have Lo to make another Fortitude, nor runes to buy base. I bought this armor because it was super cheap.
actually poison is what is bothering me most. Sometimes I really have to go to town or drink multiple potions.
