So yeah, if you can offer some help on how to polish this a bit more, let me know. I'm pretty good on most of the crap that counts, but I'm down 5 quick, a few resists are around 22-23, with spirit being 21, while my thrust resist is way overcapped. I'm also one point shy of cap Crush skill. I don't know crap about item drops or anything from mobs, so I did this template based around what my Merc is currently wearing, and switching out the 3 pieces of Epic Armor he's wearing with SC'd items. Thanks.

looks good to me sir but damn you 2weapon wielding fools helps so much to have the extra stats

I'd get rid of this:

Left Ring
Name: Ring of Shadowy Embers (Merc Epic)
Level: 51 Quality:
Bonus:
Effect 1: 16 Quickness
Effect 2: 16 Dexterity
Effect 3: 6 Thrust Resist
Effect 4: 44 Hits
Utility: 44.33

You are way overcap on Thrust, and hits, so all this is really adding is 16 qui and 16 dex, which is kinda low util.

Not sure what you could replace it with, but i'm sure you could find something. What I find helps is using the CM explorer, but thats on regular servers that have a lot of stuff on there.
