Sorry I was away at training for the last few days and wasn't able to get on to finish my gear off. As it stands currently I still have to get 1 more fhr/skiller and 2 more life skillers. I'm going to have to sell some of my ladder stuff before I can get them though.

Without those three gc's my dmg is 19k. Also I need to complete all the hell skill quests, hell stats quest and hell life quest. Currently I'm lvl 85 with 4 skills points left to place. I'll decide by lvl 90 where I should place them, so I will have 13 skill points by then. Another person I duel alot with figures I should put them in to TS and light mastery as another stun lock. What do you think I should do with the remaining skills?

Now for the dissapointing part, even with my skillers and other gear I only have 2,472 life at lvl 85. Now I will have an additional 80 life from the last 2 gc's, as well as 20 life from the hell life quest, and 65 life from the stat points I'll gain and the 5 lvls I'll gain. That only results in an addition 165 life before BO and 282 life after BO. This means I'll only have 2,750 life at lvl 90. So even if I lvl up past 95 on this girl, I will not reach the 3k mark with my current gear.

Name all your current stuff (charms included)

AND what you use for BO. We'll work out 3k. My sorc had 3k and you have much better lifers.

also either use spirit sword and spirit shield or stop at 86 fhr making you need only the grim spus + 1 fhr gc and 2x Sur(or whichever is 5% mana increase) in your circlet

Actually I'm a vita sorc, not a es sorc. So I would use a jah instead of a sur if I was going that direction. I like the 142 fhr bp though, eliminates a lot of stun attacks that would normally affect you.

The whole point of being 200fcr is to not get hit. You are correct that a es sorc can tank better, but I will have a lot more dmg, so think of me as a glass cannon.

Galen is right

with 200% fcr, the point is to avoid attacks, not survive them

Galen:
you might want to consider this (for another 70ish health) although it could require remaking your sorc:

replace bonemaster with another 10% fcr / 20 str ring. You get 20 more points to vita (= 40 life = 71? health after bo). This could help the 3k goal.
3x more lifers = 120ish~ health. After bo = 210ish~ health.
210 + 70 = 280 more health once you get lifers and switch ring.

2472 + 280 = 2752. Then you get 65 more points from quests and leveling to 95. That translates to 130 health (225ish~ after bo). 2742 + 225 = 2967. Then twenty health from the hell pot quest (35ish~ after bo) = 3002 health. Also, if you get a bit better BO gear for prebuff (if you want to) you can help a LOT.

get:
shako + maras + enigma + 2x soj would give you 7 more skills (level 20 bo, perfect) - I think. This could put you over 3.2k (i'm pretty sure) after you get all the gear.
