Btw have a noob question...

Mercenary ( Holy Freeze Aura ):

- Eth Glitch Chains of Honor > nice Res / DR / LL / MF / Damage
or
- Eth Glitch Treachery RW
( Fhr / 40 IaS / Fade say bye bye to Curses + adds DR & Resists / Venom / GF )


wtf is glitch ???

the glitch is when you use Cube to socket an Eth armor, the defense of the item goes higher

Yes... a more precise description would be:

Eth Armor = Base Armor Class Defence + 50% Defence ( because of Ethereal Mod )

when u socket in cube=
Socketed ( Random 1 to 4 Sox ) + Extra 50% Defence ...

is a bug... a nice one ....

NOTE regarding Goldfind / MF ballance !!!

I have heard few times in the past about GF ( goldfind ) screwing MF chances!
In this new ladder I made my sorc again, but this time after some discutions
I took off Gheed's GC and Chance Guards so I have no Goldfind at all ...
Drops are improved !

( ! ) Short Explanation would be:
If u have goldfind, chances a monster will drop gold are high, so if u loose GF ( that mean NO GF! ):
chances are higher that the monster will drop another item instead of gold!

So if u want a pure MF Sorc You must loose all GF sources !!!
So NO Chance Guards & NO Gheed's GC, that means 80 MF lost...

Item Replacement Choices:

Glove choices:
- Magefists: +1 Fire Skills ( +1 Warmth > add to regen ) / 20 FCR / 25 M Regen
- Trang-Owl Claws: 20 FCR / 30 Cold Res

Amulet Choice:
- 3 Light Skills / 35 MF ( max )
- Rare / Craft +2 Soso or +2 Light / MF ( + other usefull mods like: Fcr / Str / Resists ... )

Oculus + New Shield:
That new Shield would be: Non'Upped Moser's + Ist + Ist ( u now have 20 Fcr on Gloves )
or Rare Shield with: Fhr / Deflect / Resists / 2 Sox + Ist + Ist ... but I think u will sell this or keep for dueling...
______________________________________________________________________________

( ! ) At this moment I use together with Oculus another Moser's ( this one non'upped ) with Ist Ist
also because hi pricing of HR's I use Upped Vipermagi ( Topazed ),
also a craft caster belt, because I dont want to spend on arach ...

( ! ) Conclusion after Item Replacement
( ! ) Read above Note to understand this!

So Moser's IstIst + 3 x 7 Mf SCs = 25 + 25 + 21 = 71 Mf Recovered

- final lost Mf = 9
- 20 Fcr from Lidless moved to Gloves ...
- extra Resists while fighting: +25 ( from Moser's )
- extra Mana Regen ( if Magefists )
- etra 30 Cold Res ( if Trang Gloves )
- lost little Defence form Lidless / but can be recovered if u Upgrade Magefists

Sounds good. I'll probably be making one of these on ladder myself.

Well detailed... I wouldn't call it much of a gold finder tho... Just a well thought mfer... Since...

On my gf baba I get... About 3-4x the gf, 300+ MF and teleport ^^

+, you can pop bodies with find item and get 2x the gold you could have with any other character

Nice tho

Bump

Good guide, a few minor notes... COH is 25 mf, not 30 like you stated, and if you're thinking about up'ing your block rate on Moser's with runes... Don't use ko, use eld. +7% blocking is >> than 10 dex, not to mention cheaper Also, with no points in dex, you'll never have max block with the combos you're suggesting. Even a pally with HOZ and holy shield with good anni/torch needs points in dex for max block at high levels

Ill try light mf now ..

i alway's played whit fire but because of ur guide i try light now
