I also have almost same thinking. Currently I have a dual dream paladin.
The difference is I wanna try hoj and dual dagon on an act 3 merc, running dual aura to counter immune.

Well lazy build comes with high cost :sweat_smile:

Act 3 has no elemental masteries. As a result, they don’t scale well…

Really that bad :thinking:
Cause I am thinking that Level 28 Holy Fire from dual dragon + 16 from hoj + 2 from helm, add up to lvl 46 holy fire. The dmg should be abv avg right?

131-312 aura damage…

For comparison, a level 20 Holy Fire + level 20 Fire Resist = 169-457 aura damage

I did try this on PTR back when the PTR was running. I tried HOJ, and Dual Dragon, and Flickering Flame on an Act 3 Enchant Merc with a Tesladin. I was not impressed with the merc at all. The fundamental problem I had with the merc was that they never got close to the monsters at all. Then, most of the time, the merc just stood there and did nothing. Every once in a while, they would shoot a fireball. I would even teleport the merc to me right next to the monsters so to keep getting the auras to do better damage, but they just kept wandering away. I ended up doing everything and the merc did nothing.

Now an Act 5 Merc with Last Wish and Grief and Fort and a Tesladin…now we are talking. That was amazing. I did that test after I fired that Act 3 schlub.

Hi, what about grief and plague/ dual plague for the % of lower resist with frenzy/taunt? Currently playing auradin with dual dream, HoJ and dragon armor, was wondering the same thing, myself using dual dream, grief and enigma+fire merc with HoJ, flick flame and dual dragon; or my self with the last fire set up and light merc with dual dream+cresc moon+light ormus. But i guess wothout sinergies its just a waste, too bad, i thought it was a good idea ^^’
