Mercs have their own level system, so you wouldn't technically lose anything. However, Holy freeze can be bought in nightmare, resulting in less than perfect level 98s. There isn't much of a difference here, only like 100 life I think, some ar and res and other stuff. But you get a better aura for it, so its you're choice.

If you like to run alot, dump the defiance merc. If you are rich enough to have doom, consider that instead of getting a new merc. You will have to re-level the nightmare merc, but its fairly easy to do. Normal and nightmare cows do the trick rather nicely, but so do baal runs in normal and nightmare. Generally speaking, all mercs should be bought in normal unless you know what you are doing or unless you want a nightmare aura. If you are lazy, you can get a hell merc, but know that their skills never increase, only their life and stats.
