Level 12 Fanat question

Hi Amazonians, I have read lots of conflicting information regarding level 12 fanat on merc and using WF for a multi shot spec. Can you still hit the 7 frame BP? Or is level 12 a wasted roll? Or level 12 is possible with very limited options? I was just looking for some confirmation. I did try to test things out on a d2 character planner and it seemed like it was possible to hit that 7 frame BP.

Try using this calculator to help you.
If i am not wrong level 12 fanatism aura you will need more IAS on your build to achieve 7 fpa.

If you’re using WF, it’s still very much reachable since WF has 20% innate IAS as well as a socket option.

You could even theoretically go with these to reach 100% IAS total:

  • WF with Ohm or 40/15 max
  • 30 or 45% IAS circlet
  • Cat’s Eye
  • Any 20% IAS glove
  • Noscoil or Razortail (depending on circlet choice)

The main problem with a faith merc though is the aura radius is short, so you will often not be shooting at 7fps and instead be shooting at 9fpa.
