well

for hc its a nice guide but hrm my non hc lite sorc did over 50k and had like 1k life merc with infinity i killed all 1 hit except barbs with mad life or sorbers for pvp or loot duels id jus go with coh/griffons 5/5 lite facet die/ spirit / p lite eschutas 5-5'd/ treks/ magefists/ 9 light gcs / anni / storch for items.

Skills:Max nova / lightning / chain / mastery / 1 in ts jus for week all dex zons / 1 in presequites / 1 in shiver for a bit of def and block/ and what ever is left in charged bolts cuz there pretty pointless thats a gg pvper jus spam the lightning and if ur duelin sum1 who is good put on es

Hm I dont really like your set up. You would get owned in most duels. With no ES you will die to almost every thing also you lack Dr.

I think once Im unbanned Im going to start playing Hc. This may be the first character Ill try out. Also I wanted to ask you why you decided to NM cow instead of Baal. Is this classic or is the levelin proccess diffrent in Hc.

Hmm. I seem to recall this being a botting char.
-d

Considering I haven't played HCL in quite some time this Season (I started a few months before Gary did) many of you probably won't recognize me too much. So for those of you that don't know, I share accounts with Gary for almost 3 years and I have played on his Sorceress countless times.

Gary can vouch that I can be a complete Hero (Gary would use the term retard) when I am playing on Hardcore. I did not kill his Sorceress no matter what I really did, this character absolutely owns.

One minor preference I have over Gary however is Waterwalks > Sandstorm Treks but that's just a minor difference. I like the 60+ Life because you won't hit that easily at all by saving 10-15 Vita points that you can use from Treks.

Anyway, my $0.02

As far as the Whistans > SS debate, using CoH, Griffons, Hoto and using a Lo rune for your build, good luck aquiring that within the first month or two of Ladder.

^thanks Nick


remember people, this is the PvM forum

i dont care about your softcore dueling builds

dude i had 30k, wit 30+ stacked res, maxed tk , 85%es
2klife / 2k mana
and the main thing was, she pwnd,
took 5 hammers stright till death ( 11k dmg )
tokk alot of cold / fire dmg
shame she wernt maxblock...

btw no break points fhr 75 / fcr 138

She ownd, iv had a few mates telling me how i make the light soso,

Just so easy
btw, added about 5x into str for spirit
SPLIT vita / eng keep em =
btw, coh sux on a sorc so dose griffon

Nice guide, my only issue is that SoJ + Arach >>> Raven + T-Gods. Sorb does next to nothing on a good ES sorc, same goes for resists; meh, for that matter, Gladiator's Bane + a godly Memory (+TS/+Light/+CL/+Chilling), dual Dwarf Stars, +3 Light/DR by 20+ ammy is a way better equipment setup (shieldless ES sorc = no block lock ) My point is, the stuff that saves LOTs of damage is anything with Damage Reduced by Xx points and MDR by Xx points to a lesser extent.

good guide but that will not make me play hardcore. i always die at act 2 radament. no chance for hardcore..

Hmm, nice work man, but some questions..
230 dex?? it seems too much, wy dont use wisthan for block?
if u use 20 tk, maybe will be nice idea get mana sorc, or?

lose cbf, lose 20 dex 20 str 20 vit, lose 85 max light res (big different with souls), lose massive res, DR (%) , lose block (get hit 3x as much), for some skills, some mana, and fcr you dont need ?

maybe if you were running nihlathak exclusively, otherwise i dont think so
