Anyone who thinks eschutas is a good light sorc weapon is clueless and needs to do a little research sorry. See post above where I break it down for you.

2sk = >20%
20% < 2sk

my emath teacher is giving me some hard times here ... looking forward to my math prof.

I stopped responding because I thought you were trolling but I honestly cant tell anymore lol

If you are legit curious, it is because the 20% is added to the 450+% you get from lightning mastery and the 160% for each of the 3 synergies you max out, even if you only max out 2 of them that is still 450+320=770% increased lightning damage. When you add on the 20% from the wand it only increases it to 790%.
Meanwhile a hard point into lightning gives more damage to the base which is then increased by the already very high increased lightning damage.
Play with this a bit here and you will quickly see what I mean.

something like this orb is best in slot for a light sorc

Cold Mastery gives cold resistance pierce instead of increased damage and it is why +cold damage is so powerful on gear and why no rare orb could ever beat death's fathom.

EDIT: Here is someone coming to the realization that a 20% eschutas is garbage lol https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=48964645&f=87&o=0

Yeah, there probably wont be for a long time, if ever without bots. I don't think some people realize how the staffmods roll and how rare those things really are. I agree with the other guy, this is only 2/10 compared to other trophy rolls but a 5/20 rare lightning orb is still harder to find than getting a few Bers. I "manually played" 8 chars at the same time for 8+months using all gems and skulls to reroll orbs and best I could get was a +6light/+4light mastery 2 sock blue orb with no fcr on the OG LOD. I found more HRs than I could have a need for in that same time.

For those curious
-At ilvl or quality level 50/60 the base staff mod is tier 5. This is required for the +2 or +3 skill mods.
-You first roll how many skill mods there will be. 30% none, 30% for 1, 30% for 2, and 10% for 3. Imbuing is a bit different and at level 90+ you are basically guaranteed 3 skill mods. I only imbue orbs on high level characters and save diadems for mules or fresh character to rush the quest.
-Then you roll the tier of each, it is 50% to stay tier 5 (lvl 24 skills). This is why +5 blizzard orbs spawn all over. It is only 10% chance to roll -2 and get lightning like here. 20% chance to roll +1 for lightning mastery.
-Then you have to roll for the # of skills. 70%+1, 20%+2, 10%+3
-Then you have to roll for the other prefixes and suffixes. Rolling +2 or +3 skills and 20fcr and 2os after all that is not very likely.

The odds drop astronomically low very fast and so getting some of the trophy orbs you see here sometimes are the rarest items in the game. Just getting the 5/20 is pretty difficult and I was pretty excited to say the least. But now the hunt begins for a two socket one.
