While Fortitude can be made in a weapon, this almost never happens in reality. It is used almost exclusively as an armor for mercenaries and physical damage characters who do not want to use Enigma. The big selling point of Fortitude is the +300% enhanced damage which is the third largest source of off-weapon enhanced damage behind Phoenix and Pride.

Fortitude also adds a significant amount of survivability in the form of life and resistances. The +X To Life (Based on Character Level) modifier rolls between the following values:

+1 Life / Level
+1.125 Life / Level
+1.25 Life / Level
+1.375 Life / Level
+1.5 Life / Level

While defense is not usually a high priority in PvM, Fortitude provides an extremely high bonus which can dramatically decrease the probability of your character or mercenary being hit. Level 15 Chilling Armor gives a defense bonus of 115%.

• A perfect Fortitude Archon Plate has an armor value of 1668.
• A perfect Ethereal-Bugged Fortitude Sacred Armor has an armor value of 4065.

These bonuses are incredibly powerful useful on Paladins with Holy Shield and Barbarians with Iron Skin and Shout.

ACT II MERCENARIES
Most Act II Mercenaries choose between Fortitude and Treachery. This choice is largely dependent on the type of character and game content that the mercenary is designed for.

In most cases, Fortitude will provide higher damage output even at a lower IAS breakpoint – but this is not always the case:

• If the mercenary in question is being buffed by strong enhanced damage auras such as Concentration, Fortitude will represent a smaller percentage of the total damage the mercenary is dealing.
• In certain zones, the Fade proc from Treachery is essential because it provides reduced curse duration to counter Decrepify (specifically Chaos Sanctuary and the Throne of Destruction)
