Never heard of a "doom slayer". There's a djinn slayer....and a
doombringer. Were you able to meld those two together in the cube? *joke*
My old sorceress' barb use to use a few different items in his levelling up
days. Went from Ethereal "honor" colossus sword to sazabi set to ethereal
doombringer.
Now with the new runewords out. I suggest finding an ethereal sword and
seeing what is within the realm of possibilities for you to choose from.
Basically you're looking for a good merc that will tank for you and stay
alive. As well as being able to kill some of the baddies alongside you.
I gave up on making sorceresses this season as I have lost 4 already. So I
haven't really explored the new runeword possibilities for an act 5 merc.
Perhaps someone in this newsgroup will be able to better help you out with
first-hand experience.
