Mercs and set items

[whathuh]

I was wondering, do Mercs get the bonus of the set items? Like for example if I put 2 set items on a merc, like the sigon set on a barbarian merc, does he get the partial bonuses? or that one set with the 2 swords? does the barbarian get the full bonuses?

Thanks in advance

You're talking about Bul-Kathos. No, that set won't work. It is a Barbarian-only set, as in the character. Barb mercs can't dual wield. They can however use sazabi's full set, though I personally don't like Barb mercs all that much. As far as I know, that is the only set a mercenary can actually complete, since mercs can't wear jewelry/boots/gloves/belt/class-specific (exeptions are barb mercs with barb helms). The barb will get the partial bonuses from sigons if you put it on him. Frankly, I don't see why you don't test it out yourself. Sigons is easy to get, and life leech can be seen on your barb.
