Hello PvM Community!

Been lurking for a long time now and started SP myself not too long ago.
Havent posted a WT coz playing softcore, less attracting for you guys.

Got some questions regarding my sorceress:

1) I am close to being able to make infinity and switch to light build :)
I read via google GT or GPA is best, however i feel like getting one of those might take forever!
My options are: eth CV, eth CA or eth tresher.
CV too much str imo and slow. Tresher seems best choice. Any input on this?

2) What about merc armor? atm i use a Forti 3.5k def. Merc survives good. Is treachery better option?
Dont have one yet but i am planning on using Andy's since CB comes from Infy, so Gulli not needed.

Any tips on this is appreciated!
Other advices on light sorceress vs orb/fireball aswell!

Regards, UCALL

forty is superior

with 20ias from andy, gpa is best, and thresher beat ca/cv
with 35ias from andy+jewel, ca/cv is best
but all elite polearms perform basically the same anyways so don't worry

Ok, think im gonna go with eth CA Infinity.
I am in doubt now, havent found the 4th sur (or ber for that matter).
But got a Lo and 2 ohm so could cube up to sur, then infy.

What would you guys do? i have shared stash but somehow i find it a waste to cube a Lo and 2 ohms :unsure:

people generally like thresher for easiest achievable max ias bp for merc, giving more chances at proc'ing crushing blow
top 3 are thresher, gpa, ca

i also would just keep farming for surs/bers. cubing up that much feels like a waste, unless you truly have 0 use for the lower runes. then again, i like being able to see high runes in my stash, so so what's another few hundred LK runs? :P

Sur is quite easy @ LK. So don't cube your Lo and Ohms.

Cheers for the advice bro!
Was getting impatient abit, but i am back on the grind again!
Patience will pay off in the end!
In the lower kurast pattern topic, i saw Lo has less confirmed drops on p8 then sur yeah.
My necro merc needs a forti still! ;)
