Hello everyone!

It has been a long time since I did a fresh walk, so, I am starting a new Sorc named Echo. I got the idea for this name because it fits when you think about Singleplayer D2. There are no other players around, so all you would hear is your own Echo when exploring Sanctuary.

I want to stay away from the regular sorc builds and find something challenging!

I have theorycrafted a build that will entail the use of static field, frost nova/glacial spike/frozen orb, and possibly enchant, as of now. There will be no fireballing, blizzarding, or lightning in this walk.

I may tweak my skill choices as I figure out the strengths and weaknesses of this build, but I will keep you updated on my skills as we move!


As for rules/goals:

Rules

- hardcore
- /players 8 at all times except countess reruns
- no mods ( no pl**y/extended stash/etc )
- ladder runewords enabled
--> Yet to attempt a runeword from ladder so lets hope that works yeah!
- no more than 1 point in any of the following skills --> Fireball/Blizzard/Lightning/Frozen Orb


Goals!

- Defeat Hell Baal
- Find a High Rune greater than Gul
- Create a High Runeword
- Reach level 85
- Find Mara's Amulet! :mad: (Never Identified a Mara before)
- Find Nat's Claw! :mad: (only class set piece I never found on Bane)

- Participate in the next Farmathon!

Lets get to it!

Looking forward to following this walkthrough!

I feel your pain re: Nat's Claw hehe. My lvl 96 Sorceress has all set pieces as well EXCEPT for Trang's Belt. 3, maybe 4 Claws or so found so far too, I believe.

considering charged bolt is pretty dang good for the first act, I think this is an amazing drop especially so early.



first rare drop!
