Play Style
Teleport into packs, cast Lightning for single-target or Chain Lightning for AoE. Static Field bosses to 50%, then nuke with Lightning. Keep Frozen Armor up for safety. Your mercenary with Infinity breaks Lightning Immunes — let them engage first.
Mercenary
Act 2 Offensive (Might) — Infinity is MANDATORY for breaking Lightning Immune. Without it, this build cannot function in Hell. Treachery + Andariel's Visage for survivability.
