Amazing guide Although i feel 1 into TS is viable because of about 2k damage per shot.

22k is very very low..

even with maxed telek (my build has 20 telek (all es sorc should max it lol) and shes max block with whistan (that means no spirit shield) and she deals 31k.

u could get an ez 35k with spirit and stuff.

oh btw.. ur skill list can be confusing.. you WONT max all the synergies like he said..

note: u dont need 1 frozen armor

just make sure you max lightning mastery first..
and then lightning

then u gotta choose between chain lightning and charged bolt.. personally i maxed charged bolt.. and i have about 12-15 base points in chain lightning (dont remember exactly)

ok i just noticed u r max block.. with stormshield..

that means u gotta add strengh AND dex..

whistan means: less dex, no str = MUCH MORE VITA!!!

whistan > ss on sorcs.. trust me..


wow i don't like raven and tgod..

same with wizz...

there are better setups..

coh/hoto/arach/griffon > skin/wizz/tgod/shako

seriously.. u can use Lo rune if you really need max light resists...


You seriously never played hcl...

Nice guide Gary really... But why all in vita when you built her to ES?

Hi there !

I'm following this guide atm and my soso is lvl 87. I'dlike to specialize this build a little bit to make a pure cs soso.

I use the Griphon//soj configuration, but my mana is still insufficient imo : with cta 6 bo, i have like 9XX mana, that goes empty really fast, though life never really decreases.
I hesitate to put some frosties and use, instead of mara, a 12+ fcr crafted soso amu..what do you think about it ?

Second, i dont really c the difference between shaeled and non shaeled storm : though you are a tank, being surrounded with monsters is not a real problem even without
the fast block bp. Maybe should put another lf on it ? But i must admit that the FHR bp u mentionned is useful, in those case of tele in a pack of monsters.

I will post some additional questions about it, for now its all. And forgive my bad french-english please =)

Thx for this great build anyway, and regards =)

I think this is because all of the other gear gives a bunch of mana plus insight dont leave you with problems other then possibly some mana burns

Didn't read this guide until now, got a 93 level lite sorc almost following this guide in HCL, cept 1 point tk.

Stormshield is best shield for HCL no doubt, it has pretty good block, 35dr is crazy and res is not bad in it either.

SS + Shako + Coh <- 53% you get max DR and a bit over but that doesnt matter tongue.gif, the difference to 0%dr is tremendous, people talking about high str req, I guess they havent noticed that SS gives 30str which makes it glitchable. So 10 base str + 20 coh + 30 ss + 30~40 anni&torch + 2 shako + tgods = at least u need only 4 which can be covered by 2 charms tongue.gif

Only thing I got different is that I have only 80fcr, which I find enough the 63 tele bp and 79 lite bp.

I have balanced my sorc around dama/mf/safety.

50dr/maxed res/200mf/33k damage/max block/800mana/1200~unboed life <- Pretty easy to solo all of hell.

From personal experience I vouch this guide for hcl tongue.gif
