I seem to get the most mileage out of a Prayer merc for Insight synergy, especially on my P/B build. Unfortunately enemies affected by cold tend to shatter at death (leaving me less ammo for CE), so I tend to avoid the HF aura. Stacked with Clay Golem and Decrep, Holy Freeze can help bring mobs and bosses to a near-standstill, which is hilarious and awesome. It only noticeably boosts the merc and golem, but even then there’s only two of them so it won’t really add enough DPS overall for it to matter much. Even if running a Daggermancer it’s not much use, since any dagger’s physical melee-weapon damage is only fair at best (Blackbog’s does under 100 per hit). Might is great for summoned armies but for P/B builds it really doesn’t add much utility. Do you ever find uses for some of the other auras, either as a permanent option or switching out for specific areas?

This guy is basically part of every build’s load-out because Insight is so insanely useful, but nearly all of the build guides say to have him use either Might or Holy Freeze.
