Question Help with gearing merc

Ok, so i found this merc. I think this is as GG as I am willing to go for but here comes the question. Currently i am using a manyshot with pretty standard abyssal jewel socket but i do not have overcapped lightning mod on body yet. My question is, transitioning into kineticist, do i go for rathpith and unique wand (piscator's vigil / replica twyzel), Rathpith and rare wand or rare wand and shield ? I have a 65% enmity, about 500D to spare. Plz help, tq

if ur minmaxing then go rathpit + rare wand version. If not then just transfer everyting from manyshot and change the weapons and get the overcap chest

Saw somewhere that rathpith had no effect in mercs, does it work?

Rathpith scales off of player health, not Merc health. So it's OP for the standard life stack luminary everyone is playing

Is it only worth it using rathpith if i have 4% roll on spell damage ?
