For the 10,001th time, sorceress holds infinity
Merc holds insights.


It’s simaltaneously the highest damage and highest survivability

:rofl: :thumbsup:


Infinity battle scythe, vipermagi armor, 2/20 amulet, spider, griffons, and then choices up to you on frostburns vs magefist. I prefer 1 x soj 1 x fcr str dex Mana or life stat.

To be honest, a liable nova sorc is relatively the same 2-3 possible set up. Unless you hit them with wiz glubs or armor.

Just a fair piece of advice, only thing that matters on infinity is -55 light res and non eth so you can flex on em with cyclone armor.

And the build requires 100% str bug. If you fail to meet that requirement, you will not qualify as a respectable nova sorc.

if -lres is so important, what about crescent moon + Spirit with many nice stats ?
-35 vs -55 not that big of a difference, considering that dual wealding of any polearm..
My infinity merc not fast enouph to turn on the aura.

First, that extra pierce is actually fairly Important.
2nd you say nice stats but you require an extra 70 pts into strength to reach 156 for spirit vs 86
And you are a sorceress using a massive amount of Mana to spam nova and considering es builds are trash for pvm, you would require insight anyways.

Being that I love Nova sorcs,
Yes, unless you are using tier 1 gear, it isn't the best idea to run a pure es build. Mana burn and poison damage is relentless hell a4-5.
Sorry but vit > es when we are talking pvm. Facts
