Survivality is more then I was expecting.

Any ideas what areas I can improve??
I think mana can be better.

y cow king boots?

What then?
Infernostride?
Cow King gives me 25-35 Fire dmg more then Infernos and 20 Dex

I was curious mostly. I remember they were good, but it isn't something people usually choose.

I know, but it's my best choice at this moment:
Cow King's Hooves
Heavy Boots Defense: 30-41 (varies)(Base Defense: 5-6)
Required Level: 13
Required Strength: 18
Durability: 14
Assassin Kick Damage: 4-10
+25-35 Defense (varies)
+30% Faster Run/Walk
Adds 25-35 Fire Damage
+20 To Dexterity
25% Better Chance of Getting Magic Items

Dragon > coh ?
Dream helm, scratch the es and skill light mastery instead of es
Or the new fire helm in combination with fire sunder.

Another fun version is with warshrike.
It has 50% pierce, and u can wear dual dream.
It can melee for extreame damage adds.
It has some physical for leech.
You can reach 9fpa melee and i think the same for ranged.
You can have psn dagger charges on ur fcr ring, but that will be used up at once in pvm.

Looks awesome! Maybe I should make one of that kind sorc too

i think you should try to get more fcr, like 63 fcr breakpoint with tele
you will need viper 30 fcr - magefist 20 fcr and 20 fcr from helm thats 70 fcr total.
I really like flickering flame for this build, really helps vs -res from sunder.
in that case you will need 15+ fcr amu to reach breakpoint

Hi
I would love Flickering Flame helmet, only if I can have it on D2 Legacy
I'm still impresed of powerfull fire dmg. Crossbow shooting explossice belts + Piercing Attack = few explosions cousing Fire Dmg +22K
Mobs doesnt even have to be hit by belt, it's enough if they are close to explossion. 1-2 hits-explossions, Diablo 3 hits
I'm still improving: Ammy 3 Fire / 30 Str and Cta + Lidless
Edit:
Replaced @Res Scs to 10x 17 Mana / 7-13 Fire Dmg

FCR?
This is not mage build, but melee - phisical dmg.
I'm mostly in Run/Walk mode.
Got 40 Fcr (37 breakpoint) it's enough to catch running away mobs hehe
