Cruel Ward Bow socketing

[NuurAbSaal]

Hi!
I use an Act 1 Rogue with my MF Barb and she now uses a nice (299%) Ward Bow without suffix. I managed to get 2 Sockets in it and am now contemplating Shael+ Amn, dual Amn, dual Shael, etc. Ists seem to elude my grasp :(

Other Merc Equipment: 3PT helm and 4PT armor (I haven't found that much MF gear yet)

I intend to do mainly Act 5 SU and Baal runs, with the occasional Meph run in between. We're talking about SP here, so Monster Hitpoints should be fairly low.


Any comments/suggestions are greatly appreciated.
THX

Claims a 2nd shael in ward bow will shave an extra frame off the attack.

LO ETH! LO ETH! LO ETH!

Wait, that's a friend's answer to everything. ( ;) to my friend)

I'd Shael Shael that puppy if there is no suffix. The bow is nice, but, in all cases where a Magic Cruel is missing a suffix, Shael Shael is the answer for merc weapons IMHO. Tough question is next... what armor would you put on that merc to get the lightning hose and still get life leech? :)
