Hey I just returned to d2r after more than 25 years. Nostalgia.

So here is my question.
What sorc should I build when I want to hunt Andy, countess, pit, act2 key, meph, pindle and nihlatak. And some cows.

I have bought some gear i list so you Can see my budget.

Spirit sword
Spirit shield
Shako
Vipermagi
Magefist
Soj
10 fcr ring
10 fcr amu
Random Belt
Random boots

Merc:
Insiight eth CV
Crown om thieves
Hustle armour

Im thinking Nova or perhaps fb? And my sorc is atm hydra and orb specced. But I Think it lacks some killing ability.

Give me Your thoughts and some ideas to how I could upgrade here even without the obious infinity runeword.

Nova will suck as killing bosses

Use a cold sunder to eliminate cold immunes - if you’re just now playing d2r for first time you need to look into sunder charms fyi

Blizz or fireball/meteor
