Your SC doesnt have quickness??

some people prefer flight over quickness. flight makes them more of a hazard on the map, where quickness makes them more of a hazard in combat.

My favorite (not saying it's the best) loadout for a thug under CB mods:

Banelord___15d
Dual Fire Bolas___10f
Hydra Skin Armor___10n
Sandals of the Crane___5s
Amulet of Resilience___10n
Luck Pendant___5s

55 gems total... you can throw a horror helm on if you like. He's better for supporting archers and mages than soloing, as the blink effect distracts pretty much everybody, and the fire shackles effect slows them down. High survivability.

another option would be swap that guys hydra armour for jade armour (and maybe one of his miscs for ring of regen) for even more shots

Don't use it... a black servant with a rime hauberk is just as effective.

To be perfectly honest, I use fire bolas (or other ranged weapons) only on my commanders leading armies. Thugs and SC's I make tend to go up close and personal.
