I must disagree, your opinion isn't based on how you PM's eldest asking for advice on your build is it?

I asked him what breakpoints his sorceress was hitting, not advice, and he never responded. please don't speak about what you don't know.

I assume he didn't respond because he didn't know (judging from his gear selection, he has no idea what fcr,fhr, ias breakpoints are).

Well my opinion is this guide is the best, that's just my opinion.

No offence, but this is actually a horrible guide. Without fcr you will just lose to all casters with a brain. Thats a fact. Without the right gear you will also lose to any melee chars with a brain. My melee sorc last LADDER season was able to go toe to toe with GM BvCs, Poison Necs, Hammerdins and Smiters. (No sorb but they stacked res which I have no problem with.) The only thing that was a losing cause was WWsins. Guess what? I didn't use any duped items RWs aside since 99% of HRs are duped. No wiz gloves, no BManas, and none of your other BM shit. "Just jump your enemies when they're not paying attention." Great dueling strategy. You kill them ONCE like that. So after that they rejoin the game walk out of town and 1-hit you? Or maybe they just remember your name and do it while your dumb ass spends 10 minutes pre-buffing.

On top of all that BM crap, your prebuffing and the fact that your dueling strategy works once per person and fails against people with a brain, you have no idea how this character works. You say fcr isn't important and WWs are better than treks. Seriously wtf is wrong with you. No wonder your strategy against poison characters is to roll over when you have no poison resist and no fcr. On top of that you don't even know how ias works with a sorc's zeal. You suggest fail ass IK set as a good idea to hit a breakpoint that doesn't exist. Which is almost as bad as the fact that you think you somehow deal 3k physical damage. You can't, don't, and won't hit that much ever, you aren't special.

You can't catch up to anyone, or run away from anyone. Somehow you think you can take down hammerdins by walking up to their hammer fields and doing a slow ass teleport to do your horrible level 3 zeal. But of course I forgot, the only way you can kill ANYONE is by BM jumping them. My bad. Try actually using skill instead of failure.

This guide is worse than the ones that suggest dragon/hoj for the holy fire as being better than dream. At least those guides are usually accurate with breakpoints and damage. Hey dumbass heres something I bet you didn't know. The top 5 most important things for a zeal sorc go in this order:

#1. Level 5 zeal (You don't have.)
#2. Cannot be Frozen (You don't have.)
#3. Last IAS Breakpoint (You don't know what it is and you're way the fuck past it.)
#4. As much AR as possible (Oh man you did 1 thing right with angelics. Congrats.)
#5. Survivability (You don't have FCR or poison res or max block and your BO is embarassing considering you're prebuffing so much. I had level 15-17 with very minor prebuff.)

Oh man you did 1/5 of the most important things for a melee sorc properly. And hell if you break down survivability its 1/8. Everyone who thinks this guide is either good or comprehensive fails. I've seen guides from back when dream was first introduced in 1.10 that are better than this pile of crap. Even for a BM sorc this fails because you don't even have the FCR to NK properly with aura or to jump people from screens away.

Please delete this guide its making people think this is an acceptable melee sorceress.
