I’m looking forward to complete the achievement of finishing the game with every class.

For Sorc, which is the fastest to finish the game? Fire or Lightning? A combination of both?
Plz state which and indicate a budget build.

Budget build example include vipermagi or Que he instead of Chains of Honor 😂

(I’m currently lvl 29)
Thanks.

solo self found - fire through normal and then respec cold, but your going to have to hybrid for hell ancients
if you transfer gear - prob same answer, lite without infinity is rough and way too many fire immunes

Why are you concerned with doing it the fastest? Do what's the most fun and just do steady progress.. and you'll make it eventually..

Start off as a lightning sorc - Respec to Frozen Orb at lvl 30. Max frozen orb and put points into cold master until you break -115

frozen orb absolutely murders nightmare

then you can put points into hydra and fireball to deal with hell (or chain lightning)

Hybrid sorc is just a terrible idea.

You have a merc.

You have static field

Fire till nightmare, spec to blizzard

Full blizzard til infinity.



Hybrid sorc just reduces or damage so much.

I agree with this one.
I barely play d2r, but i have a super eco sorc. I mean, a tal sorc is 50 times better geared than i am.
Still this blizz sorc who dont even have torch, annie, skillers, and more or less just have 2 spirits and a few selfound wierd items can rush any1 in hell without problems... Often several other guys joins the rush and soso handle p4-p5 easy.

Cold sorc + 2 spirit + eth insight merc + rand gear = plow true game, use static as he say.

Edit:
When you go assa, here is a nice guide, check the lower and mid gear selection:
