10/10

hardpressed to ask for more other than base res or 80+ mana but unnecessary with all those staffmods and near-perfect life for 49 i believe
10

Thanks Guys, Iso More opinions

In duel i sure it is cool. 9/10 (automod crap)
But blue orb can have better stat: 3cold(3blizz/3mast)+fcr.(+2sock if will luck) and this magick cant be trophy, cus magick. ~ ~

I think: 5/10 (very low suffixes)

sry what, i cant really understand what ur trying to say?

i agree a cold orb with 3cold would give more -Cr, but imo, no it isnt better as u said u can only get 3cold as magic, and magics are not trophies
With that being said, this has 2sorc/20fcr/3cm/3blizz, and 3 TS, with Life/energy, and 2os, all @ lvl 49

e/ That Ts doe, any cold sorc knows how useful that 3 to Ts can be

e/ Also Green Gfx

Imo, you need to think that over again,
iso a link to a better mld orb then this

Thanks for your rate though, Is more opinions, thanks

Very nice but hasn't this been posted before? Maybe post full char to add something new!

Muse owned this at one point in time, but its been through a fwe other user, and now its fallen into my hands

Intro

Most of you know me as Stories/Chris, and everyone knows I Love Svs, and with that being said I have played every build imaginable, Fire, Light, Cold, Pure vitality, vitality with max block, Energy Shield, and more. After testing several different builds, I knew I wanted to make an Blizzard Sorceress capable of standing up with the rest in Svs, and Pubs alike. So, with my substantial background knowledge in Diablo 2, along with a significant amount of trial and error, I devised my own build. After keeping the build a secret for a short time, I am now willing to impart my knowledge. I’m not some self proclaimed genius, nor do I claim that I am the best Blizzard Sorceress on East. I have simply discovered a Blizzard Sorceress build that works wonderfully for Pvp, and Svs alike. However I will not be giving budget options, simply put, this is not a budget build, and I will provide the statistics of my Blizzard Sorceress, Stories, at the end so that you have something to compare to. Enjoy.

Section I: Stats

Strength: Enough str to wear your Gear (In all setups)

Dexterity: None

Vitality: Everything

Energy: None

Section II: Skills

Fire Skills:

Warmth – 1 point

Lightning Skills:

Telekinesis – 1 point

Teleport – 1 point

Cold Skills:

Ice Bolt – 20 points

Ice Blast – 20 points

Frost Nova – 1 point

Glacial Spike – 1 points (Max this last!)

Blizzard – 20 points

Frozen Orb – 20 point

Cold Mastery – 20 points

Section III: Equipment

There are several routes you could take here. Regardless of what equipment you decide to use, you must always hit 105% Faster Cast Rate and 86% Faster Hit Recovery (as displayed by the charts above). Depending on the gear you use, your damage will vary, as well as your life, mana, and resistances. As I stated in the introduction, This is not meant to be a budget build. Stories' has all 100% perfect gear, but I understand that most Diablo 2 players cannot afford such quintessential paraphernalia.While some say Facets are unnecessary, this does not hold true for the impeccable Cold Sorceress, as piercing an enemies resistances is her primary means of taking down even the most resilient opponents. One should note that while resistances may have no bearing on a 95% Energy Shield Sorceress, they are crucial to your survival if you choose to utilize this build.

Obviously, depending on what you can afford, your gear and flexibility will vary. Reaching 105% Faster Cast Rate and 86% Faster Hit Recovery are absolutely essential. The way in which you achieve these goals is entirely up to you. If you don’t want to use a Faster Hit Recovery Grand Charm, put 7% Faster Hit Recovery jewels in your Armor, and/or Helm. There are literally endless ways to set up your Blizzard Sorceress, depending on your budget and the availability of equipment. How you reach the breakpoints is up to you, but once you reach those breakpoints, you’re going to want to actually use your Sorceress. See you in the Moor!

Closing

First and foremost, I would like to thank all the readers for taking the time to look through it in its entirety; I know it’s lengthy, but I was trying to be as thorough as possible. While some of you may disagree, I believe that if you try this build you will find it quite effective. Your satisfaction is important to me! If you have any questions, comments, or observations that you’d like to share, please don’t be afraid to send me a Personal Message. I think you will find I am quite friendly, and awfully forgiving. If you need help with anything, whether it be gear set-ups, dueling strategies, or simple tips, I will be there to assist you. as said at the top, I would leave me stats at the end for you to compare, so here you go

Stories (105/86)
Vs Fire - 10max Fire 3800+ Life, 200+ Fr ( -295 Cr, 8.5k Ib, 10k Blizz, 1.2k Orb)
Vs Light - 10max Light 3500+ Life, 200 + Lr ( - 290 Cr, 8,5k Ib, 9.5/10k Blizz, 1.2k Orb)
Vs Cold - 398Cr + Raven, 3500+ Life ( -265Cr, 32Life Rep, 7k Ib, 8.5k Blizz, 1k Orb)

I wish you the best of luck in building your Blizzard Sorceress.

Best regards, Stories
