Nice guide, and thanks for andy hint.. didnt know that O.o
lets test if it works

yeah np. just make sure you kill andy and talk to warriv, that's it!

Sorry guys, shako is 74 mf not 84.

hey its a great guide, and im following it right now :]
but one question, you havent mentioned about warmth, or is it not part of your guide? if it isnt i don't how you can manage an undrainable mana..
could you clarify that for me please?

Yes, one to warmth. I thought that was pretty obvious. Thanks for that

Crap guide, with such items u could make gg light sorc witch is much better. Meteorb is low budget early ladder mf char playing with basicly anything u can find.

Thanks. It's stickied though, so Sucks, doesn't it?

In hell, there are light immunes so, Meteorb proves best in pvm..

Yep, but Infinity (since you mentionned it in your guide) takes out most of the Light immunes in Hell, that's why he says that.
But anyway, great guide, I think I'll do this char when I'll get some time

Regarding Fire Ball damage, 10 Fbolt 20 FM is in fact not the optimum distribution of those 30 skill points (note, this will require clvl 93, not just 90).

Since this is a common pitfall, I shall briefly explain why (run the numbers in a calculator or use a skill planner if you don't believe me).

Without +skills, 10 Fbolt 20 FM is indeed the best choice. But this is no longer the case when you have a bunch of +skills from equipment. Why ?

Well, your +skills do two things,

#1: They boost the base damage of each fire spell (FBolt, FB, Meteor, you name it)
#2: They boost Fire Mastery (passive bonus), thus boosting the overall fire damage

But as you know, your +skills will not synergise. This is the reason why you should max the synergy (Fbolt) to Fire Ball rather than Fire Mastery.

FM applies to the overall damage (including the damage bonuses from synergies).


One more thing (people have already commented on the rest) ...

- The 8-frame FHR breakpoint (60 %) is just 5 % above the 55 % FHR from Spirit.

For that reason, you could suggest a 5 % FHR SC (mana or res as a useful prefix).
