The thing you missed about sanctuary is it makes your attacks ignore the immunities on undead. It will even let you leech off of them. Even though the damage is terrible and the speed makes you cry, this is still a godsend to a shapeshift druid that doesn't want to find a sorceress to drag them through hell difficulty. Being able to damage and leech on ghosts in the arcane sanctuary makes a world of difference.

FINALLY…at Level 84, I can now annihilate Physical Immunes with her !! Tested in Arc Sanct, Players-7 Hell …and she was utterly vaporizing all the Ghosts and Ghoul Lords !!! I was stunned. On-screen damage ‘only’ shows 900-1250 appx…but they crumbled in seconds once the Decrep effect 9:21 procced on em!! Azurewrath was apparently another late-game option for Phys Immunes (until I found a Tomb Reaver for my Might Merc), but I’d have to actually find that rare weapon too 😅. This was an incredibly cheap (Runes) solution, and I thank you for your great overview here.

I play frenzy barb and I use Lawbringer from the very begining in my OH, I used it with my crescent, now with my oath and I will use it with my grief later too, its a godly item especially if you run alot of nilathak and chaos sanctuary. If you have a very powerful main hand you dont realy need that much damage in your OH and still the -50 physical resistance and +660% dmg to undead applies to both of your weapons so the lack of enhanced damage does not matter that much.

This weapon makes the Chaos Sanctuary easy farming. 80% of the mobs are almost helpless. I clear it in about 10 minutes, zero deaths, and I barely need potions. It's about twice as slow but it's five times safer to do since I don't have any high end runewords yet. I am 89 Zeal Paladin but I put Fortitude on my Act 5 Merc and he wields it as a Colossus Sword, he kills okay considering I have Fanaticism Aura and gets the damage enhancement from Fortitude armor. I wear Shako and I put my Andarials on the merc too. The Demons he stuns. This is a good Merc weapon for Chaos Sanctuary. But I also bring a Doomslayer Champion with me to clear the River of Flame on the way to Sanctuary.

The proc is so fast in a phase blade you can just switch back to grief to finish the physical immune bosses.

Incredibly powerful runeword for mercs when paired with physical damage builds. I used this with my wind druid to help boost the physical damage of hurricane as well as all the tornados/twister thanks to decrepify. I only did this on PoD though since you could still gain a meditation aura using the A3 mercs and they changed A3 mercs to actually attack physically. Also didn't need to use enigma to teleport, which was very nice. You could still use in resurrected with an A2 or A5 merc but if you want to teleport a lot you'll probably be guzzling potions like mad. Might be better suited as an early merc weapon for sin/zon/barb builds.

Lawbringer is basically youre budget Runeword to easy farm Act 1 and Act 2 in hell on any melee build. Undead Bow Skeletts and sorcerer are basically unable to make any trouble as they get knockback whenever they try to attack and even the bow rouges have a harder time to hit you as you gain additional defense against missles. My hardest time so far I had to find any suiting Elite runeword base. On a Pala Fanazealot I had a hard time dealing with ghosts at the Tower of the countess as they are imune to physiscal damage and tend to stick together in one place so you have to deal with lots of them at the same time. However Lawbringer is not only popping this imunity for nearly all possible ghostencounters (except stoneskin bosses that is) but also give you high fire and ice damage as well. Non Undead enemys are no issue whatsoever as well as they are basically slown down so much that you can easely take them down. You can basically clear all of Act 1 and 2 hell without any problems as long as youre lightning resistances are maxed of course ^^ Players 8 is no exception from this however youre killspeed will be very low. For me its time to get my hands on some shiny gear old Sigons need a rest after 70 levels XD The only things to get now are 2 more lem and ko runes for Rift and maybe later on a scepter Lawbringer as the sword one is not the best choice of course. Main issue here is to find any 4 or 3 socket elite scepter. (Perfect match would be a+3 fanatism +3 Zeal +3 holy shield one but I guess this is basically a dream item XD)

This means that, if you are Smiting an undamaged Physical Immune, Open Wounds won’t take effect and you cannot rely on this method to kill a Physical Immune (of course, you could use a weapon like “Crescent Moon” which has a CtC Static Field…). Enhanced Damage which is off-weapon Note: The %ED actually does sort of display. Each 100% ED increases damage displayed by 1. Damage +X, which is the attribute that the above items have, is added directly to the shield damage just like the Holy Shield bonus. This means that any %ED bonuses which work with Smite will apply (e.g. Fanaticism). The following things do not work with Smite: Leech (life/mana) Deadly Strike/Critical Strike Knockback (apart from the standard Knockback on the skill) Elemental damage from equipment or charms Elemental damage from auras (e.g. Holy Shock) (the area effect will still work, just not the applied damage) Poison damage from charms or the Venom proc on "Treachery" or on grief Magic damage from Sanctuary Gear and charms that add a set amount of damage (verified by SSJPunk) except for those items which have the Damage +X attribute (e.g. WarTravs will not add damage to Smite except for the STR bonus) Enhanced Damage on the weapon Enhanced Damage to Demons (e.g. Laying of Hands) Enhanced Damage to Undead

I'd say this runeword can be useful for a physical bowzon, bowzon doesn't mind knockback at all, and decrepify reduce monster's physical resist by 50%, further increase your bowzon's damage. The knockback and decrepify can greatly increase bowzon's survivability, and the 660% increased damage vs undead opens up some great farming areas for bowzon in act 2, one really worth mentioning is the 7 tal rasha's tombs. There are tons of mobs in there, lots of chests and breakables, each fake tomb has a shinny super chest, make them great places to farm mid-high runes. Bowzon would not normally farm there due to the low killing speed, but law bringer can make you kill the undead so quickly there.

Windforce and faith bow are both the best choice, but if don't have them yet, another great bow to pair with lawbringer sanctuary aura is the Goldstrike arch bow, it has 50% ias, up to 250% ED, and up to 200% extra dmg to demon and undead, 150% bonus AR, make it even more deadlier to kill undead.

If this had 200 pure dmg, would be usefull, but this Sanctuary aura need re-work, like in Eastern Sun mode - to work on Undead AND Demons. Thats when it shines the most :P

Hammerdin+ Act 3 Merc w/Glacial Spike+High level 18 Sanctuary Law Bringer, high FCR equipment. 🎯 MUST STRICTLY BE A ACT 3 COLD MERC • Lawbringer wep • Delerium helm • Spirit Shield • Armor with FCR • Ultimate Support immobilizer, Survivability: 99.9% Sanctuary: This skill also completely removes Physical Resistances and Immunities of any Undead monsters, so they are always guaranteed to suffer full damage from all Physical attacks of the Paladin and his allies. As Undead foes in general tend to have high physical resistance (and some, such as Ghosts, are flat out immune on Hell difficulty), this is an extremely powerful, though situational, tool against Undead. In addition to damage and vulnerability, it is also knocking Undead back from the caster. This is especially effective on slower undead foes such as zombies. Lawbringer: Lawbringer offers the very rare Slain Monsters Rest in Peace mod, making it a powerful switch weapon to use against enemies that make use of corpses, particularly Nihlathak. Otherwise, it's a decent weapon for attackers focusing on speed, as it offers Decrepify mod (somewhat offsetting the lack of Enhanced Damage) and a Sanctuary aura that allows all physical damage dealt by the character to ignore resistance on undead enemies. Result: • 20% Chance To Cast Level 15 Decrepify On Striking • Level 16-18 Sanctuary Aura When Equipped (varies) • -50% Target Defense Adds 150-210 Fire Damage Adds 130-180 Cold Damage 7% Life Stolen Per Hit Slain Monsters Rest in Peace +200-250 Defense vs. Missiles ++10 To Dexterity 75% Extra Gold From Monsters (Level 18 highly recommend)

@@GGMentor High FCR, the cold attack the cold Merc uses... Freezes ;)... And to top it off it's a cycle of immobilization. Not sure if you know this but Concentration Aura is the primary Aura for the hammerdin.

@@noctwice yes for the auras to stack the items need to be on the same person or Merc. Otherwise they act as competing auras and only the strongest wins.
