i was going to not put more than 1 into nova and put lots into shicer amor.. I was thinking of puting alot into energy field but i i heard thats not a good idea cause it takes alot of mana per hit.. What should i do after I max ts,light mastery, frozen orb? i put 5 into cold mastery do i need more? or should I have the points..

The best possible sorcs I have seen are 8fpc, they rape everyone, but don't use dr nor absorb
They tend to have 20-30 ping average and 70-80 fps, so thats really important. If you are one of the few that can get frame rates like that, then there is an alternate build few people use.

Check the diabloii.net guides, they are great but they might get taken down soon.

THats a good one for pvp sorceress, though if you don't have a good connection this kind of sorc is pretty hard to use.

there is no wrong way to make a sorc. MY first sorc was crappy but it can still do hell baal

 

[OneShotWonder]

fpc is the speed at which you cast.
It mainly matters for teleport. The fact is, shiver armor is ok for 1 point in pubs but not that useful, warmth is much much better. I If you only have 1028 mana and 1 warmth u will be fuxed for mana, 1500 mana + 20 warmth means u can take a hit and wont get stopped. Sorcs that run and dont teleport will get owned by good duelers, its as simple as that.

sorcs that run and dont teleport get owned by ANY duelers lol...(unless a barbarian is too dumb to use berserk)

to keep a 75% block rate with a sorc... at clvl 90+ u'll need about 145-150 pts total dex to keep the rate... remember.. block rate decreases as lvl increases... dont know why they did that but... oh well?

 

[influentz]

heh i have a pvp sorc... lvl 96 atm... uses orb/ts/hydra... she does great in duelz... has over 1.9k life without hex charms and occy rings... dont flame hydra... it's useful... just most ppl that flame it dont know how to use it...

btw i only put 1 pt into cold mastery... i have a bonus of 15 pts from items giving it slvl16.. which gives it over 82% piercing which is good enugh... coupled with a lvl 43 ts and lvl 43 light mastery... hehehe it'll add up...

 

[influentz]

o and never maxx out nova for a pvp sorc... i know a few ppl that do that.. and it's a waste...

they say they use it for cows... so what? get 8 lightning skill charms... and put 1 pt only into nova... get close to a herd of cows... static till they hit half life... use frozen nova to slow... then nova u'r way till they drop... believe me... my sorc can clear an 8person cow run in less than 3 minz by herself... usually clearing out half the lvl befor the ppl get in...

 

[OneShotWonder]

hmmmm with my gear (all unbugged) I have about 26 pts in all maxed skills i need to drop a couple into cold mastery to hit 82 then ill put rest of points in what warmth??

Oh one thing about the block rate so at like lvl 80 with gear ill have like 40% block rate as I get a higher lvl i'll have like 32-33??

PS: with the gear I have listed on page one at lvl 99 about how much dex would you say i needed to hit 74-75 block rate??
