Help Merc Template MHI

[Hawkwind]

Below is a first attempt at a MHI Mercenary Template. Been away from the game for 3 years so do not have some items used in most of the Temps I've looked at online (Medal of Honour, Infernal Sleeves etc). So the temp is made up of easy to get items. Would certainly welcome any advice on improving this:

FYI I do have a friar bot for celerity so not worried about the quick. Would also aim to get the dragon Myth with 3 con/str/dex

Main wepaon I have Illu Blade/Champ/Dragonslayer.

 

[Hawkwind]

I can use astral Cloak in place of SoM loose 3 (11 to 8) parry but not sure what effect that will have. Spec is 39 slash 50 DW 42 Parry.

Crafted arms + no Dragon BP makes me sad.

You wont cap your swing speed either... Even if you got celerity + haste

Need to find a temp that does not have MoH, Cursed Crypt Bracer or Infernal Sleeves. Anyone recommend one?

How high does Quick need to be?

Dragonslayer BP, is that just for the heal proc? I have Astral BP, Sidi one and the one from Trishy so could use any of them.

You can still make very good templates without seasonal items. The first question you need to answer is whats the template for? I am going to guess you are going to be solo/small mans.

I have a cheap merc template, which I would post, but it has a RoG, which wasn't expensive or that good, it just fitted the template really well.

The chest piece you want to fit in is Timeless indigo Mail. Thats the Cleric dragon drop. It has a 30% HoT proc. On my merc, who has ~3000 hp thats 900 hp healed. It has a 20% proc rate and its a chest piece so it gets hit 40% of the time. Its pretty awesome.

You then want to decide on if you want SoM or ML10 Cloak. SoM is better in straight up melee while ML10 Cloak with silence will let you manage against casters a little bit better. I went for SoM.

You need to cap dual wield in your template and as you are slash you don't need to worry about dex. You should be able to get 80 quick and overall you want to aim for 250 quick.

The sidi neckies like:
Stone Boned Choker :: Items :: Dark Age of Camelot :: ZAM
are quite good.

The rest of the jewerly is the same as I have, except I have a RoG where you have the BP bracer. I also put Malice offhand as I couldn't afford conflag at the time.

 

[Hawkwind]

Thanks caledin, have souls to buy Stone Boned Choker and also have the Cleric Indigo Mail BP in vault. I will rework it, see how it goes. Just thought the side BP was a better starting point but did not realise the proc on 30% is 30%. read somewhere it was 10%.

Yes, mainly solo and small man groups

Have Malice in 2h slot for the ability

If you have friar bot get the Asral cloak of heroes imo... Friar Heal proc ---> SoM
