or eld. 7% more chance of blocking should save more than 10 dex, eh?

depends. whitstans have so high block% already so 10 dex might be better, at least it was on my barb but sorcs might be different.

On sorcs eld in whistan is equivalent to 13-14 dex

Even tho Eld Whistans is good you have to use btals for max DR.. If you use SS you can then use your Ormus for more damage. It's really based on what your preference is.. I actually perfer to go max block with a ber'd Gerke's and use Btals.

Gerke's: Easy to get MB, +res, +DR, +Magic Dmg Reduction

My sorce is level 91 now (Yay my 1st char that ever been on ladder) will be 92 or 93 tomorrow, I only have 60STR base at the moment, and about 200 VIT or so, and my DEX is 25 which is what you start with, I have 155 free stat points, I know I need more STR but I not raising it till I got all my items I just wondering do I add any points into DEX at all?

Also please don't talk about btals and stuff that isn't available on ladder, in response to me Thanks all for the help so far.

I will get Dancers, a Ko'd Whitstan's Guard, I will try get a 15%NightWing with high DEX, if it's possible to get 10%FCR 20 DEX rings I'll get two of them and try get a GG crafted ammy with DEX aswell, I will have a 20/## Anni (Already got), and a 20/## S Torch, so my DEX with all these items would be around 140 or more.

EDIT: Will not be getting Dancers they require to much STR I will use WaterWalks as they add HP aswell.

eld in whitstans is apparently better. get a separate ammy with only skills and dex. dont add any dex until you have the whole switch, shouldn't be too many points anyway, save like 40-50. keep in mind that you have to add to energy since you wont be using hacked scs that give 70 mana.

Okay so Eld it thats k, so save around 100 points just to fine tune it once I got all my items?

I will be using 2 x Sojs, 6Bo CTA, Life/Mana SC's, Arach, Spirit (Spirit most of time unless a Barb or Druid pisses me off) won't these get me to around 1k MP maybe more?

I will make my character on open and see, but another question does the % Block differ in PvP and PvM? e.g. 75% to block a carver hitting you will also be 75% to block barb?

So much to consider now... Used to just make full damage char and kill everyone but now everyone stacks and sorbs so this build with ES is better.

Yes Your block will be the same and you definatly need th es

nice guide

ty;)

1k mana is not enough. the higher %es you have the more mana you need, but somewhere between 2-3k mana is a good start.
