Skill description: When active, aura increases the damage done by you and your party.I guess if Infinity wasnвЂ™t an option for whatever reason, Blessed Aim merc could be appealing, though there other ways to make up AR (Angelic ring + ammy, charms). When level 85 monsters only have 1.8k defense, if you're level 90 with 9k ar, you already have 86% chance to hit. But melee barbs can get their attack rating from charms, ravens, visionary, angelics, hsarus, etc etc.

Skeletons might get stuck around 4-5k AR at the top end before fanat, so infinity really helps. The far better autoattacks on the merc itself, too.Д«ut really people don't usually rely on merc for attack rating on melee builds, only summoners. And since you can use an infinity polearm on a might merc and get both auras, this is preferable to say a pride polearm on a blessed aim merc. So whether its melee, summoner, whatever, you can cap out your chance to hit with infinity. And when most monsters cap out around 1.8k defense, infinity reduces them to ~300 defense, and if you're level 90 hitting level 85 monsters with 300 defense, you reach 95% chance to hit around 3500 AR. Infinity gives -83% defense, which aside from a few oddball +% defense skills like enslaved overseers or ubers, will be fully effective in PvM. In optimized end-game builds, the fact that Infinity exists pretty much moots the need for a blessed aim merc. There are lots of reasons for it to be underused.
