Description

Hi all,

Please share your opinion what is better - Duriel's Shell or Shaftstop, both ethereal and upped?
Shaftstop has strong 30% damage reduce buff, Duriel has +res which makes it 75% Cap on lvl 91 and some str bonus

If there are any armor options with Mal/ Ist worth missing please suggest

Thanks!

Treachery, combined with a high damage weapon and some life leech, is usually the best budget option before Fortitude for Act2 merc.
Honorable mention for Guardian Angel, I used it on an Act1 mercenary who couldn't survive Travincal before and it made a huge difference.

    The Leviathan, costs Lem to Pul and is probably a tier below your own suggestions but gives enough str to wield Colossus Voulge for example.

    Eth Guardian Angel with Um/15AR jewel inside. Priced at ~ Um

    Eth Black Hades with 3 sockets to customize anything. Probably worth a Pul.

    Shaftstop > Duriel's Shell, Stone and Duress are good budget runewords

    Treachery is really good for Merc with Anagriel and good weapon.
    Can sell good Theachery in Eth armor for Mal )

    Treachery is insane value for the price of it's runes.
    I'm looking to make a 3rd, just so I don't have to mule it at all anymore.
