i see a lot of sorcs use act1 mercs and act 5 mercs. i have a lot of experience with the act 1 merc since i used to give them wf's in 09 cuz i was a dupe-ist. anyways, my choice is act 5 now, but getting decent stuff might take a bit. i can give him trangs armor, tals helm, but i cant find a decent sword.
