perfect equipment for mercs

[ShadowHM]

That would be nice, aye. I forgot to mention that I'm the sort of purist that doesn't even transfer items between his characters.........So, what easily attainable items +cold spells items are there, if any?

Hi

I don't know of any plus to cold skills items for the mercenary. However, in the ranks of the 'easy to attain':

There is the ever popular Lore Rune Word Hat, which all of my mercenaries seem to sport at some point in their lives, as in: as soon as I find a Sol rune.

And if any of the other plus to all skills hats/swords/armour/shields drop, that would be gravy. Culwyn's Point is a nice sword for them, if it should drop.

I tend to grab a sword with sockets and drop in those 'single element resist' jewels that drop with distressing regularity into it. And then I can gamble circlets for one with nice life replenish on it to help keep him alive.
