what about uped twitch soc with cham 2xup blodfist cats eye or highlords and then use 2sojs.. imo would make up for the lost mana from gloves.. the ar would be nice and would not need a raven because cham in twich.. plus you would still meet the 65ias bp.. lmk what you think of that suggestion..


95es without frostburn = fail.

i think uped twich soc with cham forsties 2soj highlords or cats eye would be a viable option.. still meets the 65 bp ias.. adds some more res/dex/ds/skill.. ill have to test it compared to angelics and see how the ar is affected tho..

that build looks good, except for the fact you will end up with 20fcr maximum.
i tried twitch before i made my char by replacing sojs with gg fcr/stats/ar/mana ring in hero editor but it's inferior compared to 45/cham/life armor build. lower mana, lower ar.
the 45/cham/life armor build is the best build as you can get 37+ fcr while maintaining other breakpoints and decent mana while the huge invested dex to get max block adds loads of ar.
my bnet zeal sorc currently has 55k max dam, 1.5k life and 3k mana, 8k ar. my only prebuff was memory staff. i followed prickster's build 100% :D

Some questions I had:

1) Does the 0% faster block speed using Twitch + cham make this setup dangerous when getting hit? I read that during zeal the 9 frame block rate wouldn't be noticeable, but have no idea myself.

2) Cat's eye vs Highlords? Or +1 skill vs 30% frw and 25 dex. Since I already have +4 skills from 2x soj + Arach + Anni I thought 30% frw and 25 dex to reach max block might be better.

3) For PvM I switch to cta/lidless and I have 40% fcr for teleport. For PvP it isnt really an option so what is the best way to get an extra 17-20% whilst maintaining as much mana as possible for es. Frosties -> Magefists?

Zeal is a paladin skill. Do you support hacks being used in this game?

use this setup:

dream helm+tower shield
45ias/45res/cham life armor
2sorc/17+fcr/mana ammy
arachnid
soj x2
mana boots
frostburn

depending on your gear, u might need to swap 1-3 lightning skillers with life/mana or fhr/mana gcs to reach 3k mana with self bo
