Blade Fury doesn't have an AR bonus.The only ways to multiply the AR are a Blessed Aim merc and Claw Mastery (which is limiting and not very effective). ITD doesn't work on Champions and anything. Blessed Hammer (MAX) 2. Concentration (MAX) 3. Blessed Aim (MAX) 4. Holy Shield (10-15) 6. Because its friggin amazing with good + Skill items. Every slain monster gives me 100 hp and 100 mana when I redeem them. So that’s like +700life/mana if theres 7 dead monsters.(Like using a rejuvie pot) 7. Offense (Normal): Blessed Aim Offense (Nightmare): Might Offense (Hell): Blessed Aim Allowed Equipment: Armor, Helms, Spears, Polearms, Javelins (but won't throw) Notes: These guys are the most party friendly Hirelings because they share their Auras with all of the party, including Minions. The Aura the Hireling uses depends on the Difficulty. Prerequisites: Might, Blessed Aim, Concentration True faith can cause its believers to perform fantastic feats. With this aura the Paladin, and all those allied with his cause, carry themselves with a zealous fervor, allowing them to strike down their foes as swiftly as the scythe reaps the harvest.

Description
Blessed Aim increases the attack rating of both the Paladin and his party members. The uses for such an increase are often very small, especially since Blessed Aim does not offer any damage bonus or similar. Blessed Aim is very seldom, if ever, used.
The aura does however offer a passive 5% bonus to the Paladin's attack rating while the aura is not active. This bonus is not affected by + skills or similar skills, it only works for each hard point invested in the skill.
Lore
The spirits of the Light are ever vigilant, and in times of great need, have been known to aid their loyal disciples in subtle ways. When this aura is enabled, these spirits work to guide the hand of the Paladin and his companions, striking true where blows would normally miss. [1]

Diablo 2 mercenaries, also known as hirelings, provide aid to players throughout gameplay. They follow the player around within a specific radius and help in fighting and killing monsters. Mercenaries are also vulnerable to getting attacked and killed. In the Classic version of Diablo 2, mercenaries could not go beyond the act they were hired in.
Diablo 2 Blessed Aim Merc
Several changes were made in the Expansion sequel with mercenaries and players. Firstly, mercenaries can accompany players throughout all acts and difficulties. They can also level up and get enhanced stats and items to further help the players throughout gameplay.
Mercenary / Hireling Equipment
Almost all hirelings can assist the player by equipping helms and armor. Other arms can be equipped depending on the type of hireling. The Barbarian is the only hireling who can equip class-specific items such as Barbarian Helms and armor because of Barbarian class requirements. Other mercenaries cannot be equipped with rings, amulets, boots, gloves or other class-specific items.
Mercenary /Hireling Healing
You can heal a hireling by selecting or dragging the health potion onto your hireling’s visual rendering present in the upper-left corner. You can also do this by simply pressing shift and right click the potion to instantly heal a hireling. Additionally, you can also talk to a healer in the town for healing.

Mercenaries / Hirelings FAQ:
- At which point can a player hire a mercenary?
A player can hire a mercenary once the second quest in Act 1 is completed, or when the player reaches level 8.
- Do mercenaries follow players everywhere?
Diablo 2 Blessed Aim Aura
Mercenaries can follow a player through portals and waypoints.
- What can a player do if a mercenary gets stuck?
In these cases, a player may use a waypoint or town portal. They can also enter/ leave a dungeon/level to quickly move the mercenary back to their side.
- Does a player get experience when a mercenary kills a monster?
Yes, they do.
- Can mercenaries reduce your experience?
Diablo 2 Blessed Aim
No, you do not get any less experience for using a mercenary.
- When a player levels up, why do mercenaries say, “I feel much stronger now”?
Diablo 2 Prayer
This means that the mercenary has also leveled up. They heal fully and their ‘% to hit’ improves (since the hireable level is a factor). For the player, this means that they should try to keep a mercenary for as long as possible since they can also level up.
- Can a player dismiss a mercenary?
Players cannot dismiss mercenaries. In order to get rid of a mercenary, a player would require the assistance of another player to kill them. Players can also lead their mercenaries into danger so they can get killed on purpose.
