so i grinded my ass off in NM

i have lidless, mosers, vmagi, tal amulet, tal belt, spirit sword.. good rare boots, gloves, magefist..

the only spot in hell i seem to be able to run is andy. and i dont think she drops anything that is better than what i currently have.

i cant play on anything higher than players 1 or i (or my merc) get crushed

is my only option LK for hr gear? (i have grinded but had no luck just x2 pul runes so far)

should i build a necro? they seem to be fairly strong without high end gear.

im just sort of lost as to my next step here.

pit runs? fb/orb?

What kind of sorceress are you?

Ancient tunnels is pretty easy for a blizzard sorc. Can get good gear, but sometimes just levels will help out giving you more damage.
That an if you can get to hell mephisto can get a lot of gear.

Granted you have spirit, tals ammy, vmagi you probably don't need much more gear to do hell. That is +5 skills level 25 blizz is fairly strong especially players 1.

Would consider Lore for a helm for the +1 if you wanted more damage.

You should definately be able to reach meph with that gear.

Insight/Obedience in an elite base + ll helm makes things easier for your merc.

Get Holy Freeze to reduce incoming dmg.

AT should get you to lvl 90 quite easily.

i have a non eth shaftstop for my merc + some mid tier eth pole arm insight.. BILL maybe? and a tals mask for LL.. he cant really leech in tunnels though. so he dies a lot

The answer is one you won’t like, imo Endless Lk grind for all the hrs, may very well take up to 10-15k runs(hopefully a lot less with some luck). That’s what I’m doing, going to do exclusively Lk until I have atleast enigma, hoto and cta.(I’m on a necro tho)

Another perk of Lk is stacking up on good charms, small charms and skillers. Plus if u get good armor/weapon rack rolls u can also get some sick bases and even good uniques.(e.g if u have an armor rack the drops scarabshell boots frequently, you will eventually get unique ones during ur 1000’s of Lk runs) likewise with a wep rack that drops a thresher but instead of a unique u can get eth ones to socket in the cube for end game runeword bases.
