Tried this build, so far I'm really squishy (only lv85) - I keep dying to merc and damage feels kinda meh, then again I'm quite noob so probably just a me problem.

I find it hard to believe, it should be really safe with totem taunt. Drop cold snap, arcanist brand, totems and run away. I haven't played it against Mercenaries, but killing juiced essence mobs was quite easy. How is the experience of other players this league?

Perhaps you're just lacking damage? I see that your gems aren't level 20 yet, you don't use Sandstorm Viosage, Anathema or Militant Faith jewel - each of these items are great dps increase.

Yeah still working on some of the upgrade gear.

I did drop the totems + brand + cold snap then run but sometimes the totems seems not attacking the merc, especially merc with movement skill. I do definitely lacking damage though.

Only started red maps, and I dont even have totem taunt, however the few non juiced Essence monsters (projectile ones) I encountered were harder than Mercs.(not specced into the Essence)

It's weird and sounds like a bug. Do you have video of it? Frostblink Totems had a bug in the past that prevented them from targeting mobs near walls. It was fixed, but your post reminded me of it.

Good to hear that. From my experience (I'm playing Fire Trapper this league) once I've reached 30 million dps, mercs are killed almost instantly after spawn. Burst damage of placing 17 traps is obviously more than 30 millions, but Frostblink Totems have higher damage ceiling and can freeze.

Need help with the militant jewel. In POB it doesn't show how the jewel will effect the passives. I've traded for 3 now with different values and all 3 have bricked the passives. Very frustrating.

Any help on determining the correct value? Or is it just dumb luck?

There is a button below Passive Tree in PoB with "Find Timeless Jewel". Choose Militant Faith (Dominus) and appropiate socket (Minion Instability in our case). Tick "Filter Nodes" and choose "Protect Allocated Nodes from Changing", then add all nodes to protect. It will list all seeds that won't change desired notables.



Alternatively, you can wdit Militant Faith with specific seed number available on trade and socket it in PoB, then check if anything is affected.

Awesome, thanks so much! I was trying the second method including the ones I've traded but POB was showing them as unaffecting the passives when in game they bricked to +1 frenzy charges in all cases.

Will try the settings you suggested. Thanks!

Updated - worked! Thanks a ton. Searching POE trade is aweful with the limited entries per field...
