Please close this thread, I will make a new one with all what I learned and my final specific questoins.


Not to be rude but a lot of it is play style dependent?

The best part of running enigma is the 14 laek, my ideal build is the same as yours but swapping CM for Hoto and ammy for maras. Hoto is nice for the rep life. I guess broken light immunes will take slightly longer to kill without the added -35 from CM.

So if you are taking hits you should be regening quite fast.

Then use a 20sorb wisp if you're running WSK.

All this being said, as long as you're staying back a bit while killing everything nothing should cause you very many issues. I guess if you want to be able to pure blind tele stomp you could do an ES/DR/Block build but I feel like it's not needed.

I'm sure you know all these things, but that's my 2 cents. Light sorc is a high apm character.

Yes I pretty much have my vita setups finalized now thanks to everyone's help.

I just have some questions about ES sorc left. I am trying to build the ultimate ES sorc to test and compare what I like better for leveling to 99.

yes I just looked at your guide, but did you compare tal set VS griffon / enigma / spirit / gg 2sorc 20fcr all res mana ammy / arach? you seem to have only compared it to shako / occy + 3 tal pieces?

You can reach 75% DR, similar life and 16k damage with Blizzard using DF and CoH.

But I guess you want to keep playing light?

i suppose you didnt scroll to the end of the guide

edit:

what concerns me i dont play and dont care anymore
what concerns me you can get full tals which is a perfect combination with spirit, which otherwise doesnt make any sense, and then be done with it
or you can fiddle around with whatever you want but then its ur issue not mine to figure out

Thanks for linking your guide, its very complete and nice and I hadn't seen the bottom section. I just assumed quickly you were saying that Tal Rasha was also better than a griffon / enig setup, and if that was the case I was really interested to hear you out on that.

its just i became so lazy, or time concerned, that i dont even socket items or do any side quests, i just get iratha set for starters or full tal for be done with it, i most often at a ladder make a meteorb and im done with it if its 80-90 or something :D

have also toyed with energy but ended up full vita and i put quite some stats in telekinesis tho, not even any dex (sc tho)

the thing must just be able to rush and then ladder is done and at the next ladder just gets deleted :D
