kk so replace the x2 bk with my x2 fcr rings...there cheap but they hvesoem sweet resist. Im 5/5 the helm and shaeling the viper. so...even if im at 199%fcr it will still be 105? will there be a significant difference in Cast rate when this is done? or is this just a number to have a perfect fcr%... is it noticable...or is it just a number...i put 156 in str and the rest into vita. I have 9x 40-45life gcs ...so the 10 smaces left should be+20life? or +5res...Also what kind of gear should i keep in my stash if this fb sorc is a strict PvP char...Thank you for all your help. Im finishing the build tonight after your reply. smile.gif

Did you put 156 base strength, or is it 156 after all gear is on and charms are factored? If it's base, remake your sorc.

From 199% to 200% you will notice a HUGE difference in cast rate. Teleports and attacks will be much much much faster.
10 spaces should be filled by +20 life small charms. If you can get +20 life small charms with an additional resist modifier (e.g. +20 life / +5 resist all, +20 life / 11% fire resist), then you should do that.

There really isn't any gear that you need to keep stashed. There will be no gear changes on a fire sorc.

the only things you want on Fcr rings besides the resist you already have are:
strength
life

If you get 2x Fcr rings with +20 strength you might want to RM your sorc because then you will save 40 strength points for vita points, giving 80 health, 140+ after BO.

Other than that, nothing much you should change. Glad you enjoy her. =)

Well, optimum ES is level 40, giving 95%.

However, this requires a TON of prebuffing.


I suggest a few points into ES as base points (5). 5 is the minimum base that allows you to reach 95% if you really want to.

Throw on a +9 ES Memory Staff, +3 Lightning Skills circlet, +3 ES ormus, +3 Lightning Skills amulet. You can exchange fire gcs for light gcs if you like to, but I don't feel like taking all that time. With this prebuff gear on, cast BO and then cast ES. Then go put your regular gear back on and you will have a high % ES.
