sexy build and nice guide


this NEEDS to be stickied

crap ImO

only opinion so far that says that.....neways to answer companyofthrees question......

to kill high defence characters such as sheild barbs and smiters you really have to jus go in for the kill and hope for the best....this build gets ~12k ar..

to really beat the extreme high def characters u need 20k+.....

to make a 20k+ pvp zeal sorc ud have to have a perfect inventory or ar/life gcs. this to me is useless, but if you got the fgs keep them in ur stash for such and occassion but know you will lose alot of damage by doing this....each light gc adds 1.5k damage after bo..


overall the build is good to stick too but for certain situations neone can be beat.

example i was in a due today with a conc barb. he had 34k defence. i beat him in a ft5 3 sets, 5-0/5-3/5-1
so it is really more about when to tele in and when not to. strategy and skill of use is alot of this characters strength

Maybe because people overlook things or don't really read at all...

Suggesting 24 FHR over 100 Life = fail.
Suggesting 6 STR on a Skiller = fail.

Don't even have to read the rest to see that you either lack basic mathematic skills or an understanding of the game itself...

less spam...ty make a guide if u wish...

it's not spam... it's just to show people who might read this or want to build this that SOME (not all) the things you suggest = crap.

24 FHR = 2x Skillers = 90 Life... Whale = 100 Life. 100>90. it is as simple as that...

same goes for 6 STR Skiller... 6 STR = 12 Life... 45>12, simple math, again...

my build is a suugestion.....

i followed evry build i could find and in pub duels this one outweighed them all.

it balances everything. in "MY" opinion that extra fhr is needed....also every cant afford 45 lifers....or 100 life whales.

it is a well balanced build that costs about 800fg to make. ofc u can upgrade it but there isnt a need to do that.

i appreciate the constructive criticism tho it is needed. i dont care how people build it. i simply share what has worked best for me out of al the zeal sorcs i have made. every build i followed lacked somewhere. this is the most balanced build i have come up wth.....ty again, u should try it out.

I actually HAVE tried it... your build + many other builds that were similar...

Now on that other part... I am not saying you should not get 24 FHR... I am simply saying that common sense should tell you not to get it from your armor... if you NEED it, get it from skill charms and lose 90 Life instead of the 100 you lose by ignoring "of the Whale"... this will leave your build as balanced as it is right now, but with the difference that it has MORE life... and MORE life is nothing bad at all.
Same goes for that STR charm... just put those 6 points into STR and gain 45 Life from a skill charm... again, the result (you being able to wear equipment) will be the same and will NOT un-balance your build, you will simply gain Life on top of it.

Also, using 45 Lifers etc in your own build, you should be able to afford such a Magic armor...

:sigh:

yea u can do this. nething works i guess i made this bc all the other ones i tried failed. there isnt a sticky atm for this skill set. gear pretty much the same on everything. but the skills vary.

that is where the other builds i tried really fell short. fire mastery is over rated. warmth gives a 2% bigger bonus to enchant. this is the major difference in my build and others.


ty nas for aproving the sticky.....

will be stickied on 1/19/10

ty guys for bumps.

i gotta agree with him here guar, whale would be better and probably cheaper than getting 2 45s. granted its only a 10 life difference, but that assumes you're working with perf gear. If you're using 95 es though, a ton of life isnt needed. Other than that, i would suggest getting psn reduction and dr somewhere on your gear(if possible). psn/ow can really fuck up an es sorc.

also your text is screaming at me with incorrect grammar :P.



yeah and warmth improves es too.
