I understand everything but..
Why respect to blizzard?

For farming items. Blizzard is the most overpowered sorc spec when you have no gear. Use glacial spike to freeze the monsters and blizzard to kill them. You can start doing ancient tunnels and could potentially get jahs/bers, gryphon's eye, etc and it only takes 6-8 hours to set up the character.

The Chance to get anything form Ancient Tunnels is to low needs +20.000 Runs to get at least 1 maybe 2 griffon eye and 1-3 high runs. Not worth the time.

Maybe most try to do Mephisto runs or am i wrong?

Usually super early people do andy/meph/pindle/countess/summoner and potentially nihlathek if they know what to do.

are keys something worth? or to early?

Normaly in my mind i kown the fastes way to make currency is to make a java and farm cows... but for that i need a titans and at least +40 cow runs per high rune.

Since this isnt a option, i would think mephisto runs are worth doing it.

Pindle isnt worth it, i had a long time ago a bot i can tell you +20.000 runs, only shit.

Option 1: You play as a fireball sorc until level 24, then go frozen orb. 1 point fire mastery only. Again the fireball is just to deal with cold immunes after level 30. Enough cold mastery to hit -125 cold res. No respeccing is needed.

Option 2: You play as a fire sorc until level 30, then respec to frozen orb and leave the points floating so you can max cold mastery and frozen orb at the same time. Put points into fire around level 50 when orb is maxxed out. Same -cold res.

Edit: Either way once orb is maxxed and cold mastery is high enough max fire ball, then fire bolt, then meteor, rest of the points go into fire mastery (you can't max it.)

NM baal until like level 75 to make it easy.

Again, once you are fully done w/ hell quests, respec to blizzard.

option a: the only real option for normal. STATIC sorc. fireball is GREAT for solo diablo, if you are with a team, MAX static in normal, 1 point into frost nova for slow enemies, then switch to blizzard after lvl 24... EZ

Blizzard kind of sucks with out cold mastery.

interesting conclusion to draw from what i said.... my point was static is king in normal, but to max it for max radius. then when you get to NM your sorc's can run fireball and blizzard respectively... but FB is not great in normal unless you are soloing.
