Immortal sorc build look it up

I started with max fo/cm/ice bolt / max telekinesis 1 es and it was to tanky lol

I’m now 10 points telekinesis max blizzard stuff

Pre buff memory staff

Bo barb

Get res and a gerkes with a dwarf 16-17 med insight merc

The only pots I ever use are sometimes on my merc otherwise I go 20+ games without needing a single pot doing 2 minute chaos runs

Edit

Or just get infinity going lightning sorc and everything dies before they can hit you but blizzard sorc with es is super cheap and safe

1 point es rest into telekinesis

P1 or p2 max orb is great

It starts to show when you want to farm chaos tho blizzard is king until you get Infinitysnd lightning sorc

Sunder with max cm and some basic gear you can farm anything in hell with orb

Telekenisis synergy is really what makes ES great. Think of ES effectively as DR.

You can go immortal sorc route with Gerke and alot of PDR and MDR.

But I personally just run a blizz sorc with 20 telekensis, a few point into es (cause haven't respec since i got a nice memory staff)
I stack alot of res with Iratha set to get started till i get some good sorc gear online.

I agree I like the play style of orb but with basic ass bitch gear and 10 to telekinesis a lvl 80 sorc can get 3k+ blizz dmg and it’s just to gg for boss killing and just killing seal bosses at chaos

If your looking for a full clear type of game play and a great rushing sorc then orb is the way to go but if you want to farm chaos or bosses or boss pack tzones then blizzard can’t be beat (for cold sorcs)

currently I got wizzspike, ormus, monarch shield and cold sunder and some basic stuff

so how much better is blizz then like double? or more like 20% idk I could accept a certain level of worse cus orb is more fun :D

Full orb es spirit phatom

Hybrid life mana

2k mana with bo rest vital

I play like that and i can do everything. Just never tried Ubers, rush p8 hell like its nothing.

Survival i whould say S tier beside souls and Venom lord.

Other than that u can facetank the world mostly. Gerk is useless if u use Prayer + insigth merc.

I ran a non-Immortal ES Sorc in PvM with multiple setups:

1.600 Life/5000 Mana Maxblock, 5.4k~ Blizzard DPS: https://maxroll.gg/d2/d2planner/nr0106mx#1

Glass Cannon 1.1k Life/3.6k Mana, 21% Block, 14k~ Blizzard DPS: https://maxroll.gg/d2/d2planner/nr0106mx#3

Balanced build, 1.4k Life/4.2k~ Mana, Maxblock, 8.5k Blizz DPS: https://maxroll.gg/d2/d2planner/nr0106mx#5

400%~ MF Setup with 63FCR, 1k Life/2.6k~ Mana, Maxblock, 8.3k Blizz DPS: https://maxroll.gg/d2/d2planner/nr0106mx#6

My favorite one is the balanced build. Great core to tweak to your liking.

Cold Skillers are overrated fuck em'
