do u think this build is superior to typical 1es (or 0es if u use 3es cta) high dmg build ?
maybe sva yes but in svs does higher dmg isnt more important than the es ?


lol'd doesnt matter tbh its the skill with sorc in s v s that matters. Vita sorc's can tank up to 8 fbs and have 30k dmg. which owns in s v s especially vs an es sorc. But if the es sorc is skilled it can own easily own the vita np.

Nice guide anyways Tom. Didn't know you were so bm with the mana pots .. I'll have to look out when duelling you ^^
You could have added afew more stratergies in f v f to help some people who suck at it. But apart from that rly nice guide keep up your work on sorc i know your getting alot better tongue.gif


how do vita sorc's tank 8 fbs?


Inferno's imo easy tank 8 fb's if nice vita


y vitas tank hell a lot smile.gif

Skill And Stat Distribution

(Based on level 96 sorc)
20 Fire Ball
20 Fire Bolt
19 Meteor
1 Inferno
1 Blaze
1 Fire wall
1 Fire mastery

20 Telekinesis
20 Energy Shield
1 Charge Lightning
1 Lightning
1 Chain Lightning
1 Teleport

= 107 Skill Points Total

question:

why no point on warm?,
and why fire mastery only 1 point? if they use 150 - 230 fire res, can u kill them?

i made a mistake here in guide... ofc warmth is a must - 1 point
So u need level 97 char to achive all those goals, but warmth is a must - just forgot it here.
Only 1 point in mastery, cus synergies increases dmg more than mastery.

u r guide is cute but just wondering what would u do in hell with those Res
Maby that means your sorc is just good on Norm and Nm
Since Every1 knows Res do change many things when u r fighing another Sorc
or any ele Char such as Foh , Trap
Still some ppl think 95 es sorc don't need max res
but they do cuz for example if u take a blizz (~12k dmg )
let's say your mana is 4.5k that blizz will make -1k mana if u are with around 10res cold
but if u do have full res (75) it will just make - 700 Mana each time the blizz hits u

anyway your build is nice , i would put Coh instead of Eni

for ppl that think Vita/block sorc are good let tell u something
block/vita sorc are to fight especific Chars such as Bow ama
Barb that's for Block Sorc , and block sorc can have up to 90% es max
Vita Sorc is cummonly used Against Any other ele Char
cuz with vita Sorc u are able to abs anything but they don't stand vs any
mele chars

So the point having a 95 es sorc first is 95 es = 5% dmg will go to mana (that doesn't include Poison dmg)
huge mana can be around 4-5k Mana depends on eq ofc
Full Res and ofc life replendish with hoto that makes u Inmortal in a Certain Way
cuz with 1.2k life and hoto ur life will grow up so fast that u will me almost inmortal
and ofc this is useless if u don't got the style to use this Sorc

That's what i think , now make your own opinion
hope this can help some ppl

1- well first thing u must know is that i play on europe ladder, where all duels beside pubs which i dont do (1v1's, tvts, cws) are held at nightmare difficulty, but u r ofc right that resi changes many things especially vs sorc (but not as much against trapper, cus resi are only important where there is a shotout if u know what i mean)
2 - why resist arent soo important with es? mana taken is not calculated by resists, u just take full dmg.. and as u have stated, vita sorcs / blockers / hybrids are far from bad, they shine against certain chars but dont do very against others... 95 es is just the best allaround and tvt sorc, because of replenish and heal... and u use 1 item setup against all chars which owns imo
95 es means that only 5% dmg is taken by life, so u take hell a lot hits smile.gif and right, with certain items , 1.5k life , 5k mana and replenish u r immortal in certain way
