energy shield sorceress gear & skill help

hi,

i am trying to make an energy shield sorceress just to teleport around at all places & difficulties, no killing power needed (1pt frozen orb is what i was thinking about). she will town portal when target is reached

also consider mini ubers

for this i was thinking about below skill & gear choice but not sure how it will work.

max energy shield

max telekinesis

1-max warmth, maxing really needed?

1 frozen orb, (at least rush my mules for socket quest)

swap: energy shield staff with memory

weapon: wizardspike (for res) or spirit sword (skill&mana&vitality)? which one?

shield: spirit monarch ofc

helm: thinking about gaze but i am trading a 3lite/21life circlet (will sock 2sol in it), which one?

amulet: 25pdr ammy with res i have, maybe 3lite ammy? which one?

rings: literes & fcr & mana (maybe str) or manald heal rings for regenerate mana?

armor: probably will go with vipermagi but also have a ormus robes, ormus would not help much, right?

belt: tgods for gloams in wsk, maybe gloomstrap or string of ears, undecided?

boots: silkweave, couldnot find a better choice

gloves: frostburn

a2 merc with insight and prayer

vamp gaze (sol)

duriels (sol)

cryptic axe insight

unfortunately i wont level this sorc beyond 75, i dont see any gain in that besides more life. just one more note, she will always have lvl 35BO from a friendly barb

i dont want to invest much for this build as its purpose is only teleing around.

i am open to any suggestion.

thanks|||My opinion:

I think wiz spike would be best for a sorc like this, mainly because of the huge mana boost you will receive. Probably at least 1 soj for your ring since it gives a pretty good mana boost.

For your helm, I really don't think you need vamp gaze, your ammy should probably be something to help shore up your FCR (depending on how much FCR you would have without that extra 10 or 20% from an ammy I guess)

Should always aim for 105% FCR, maybe even shoot for 86% FHR by replacing silkweaves with treks, then get a skill charm with +12% FHR.

As far as skills...

20 ES

20 TK

24 "soft points" in Tele (to get 1 mana-cost teleports.)

1 Warmth/other pre-reqs/ any of the cold armours

1+ CM

Rest into FO|||I think 1pt Warmth will be fine for your stated uses.

I like the Circlet over Gaze, since PDR does so much better with ES than -%DR does. Wizzy of course over Spirit Sword, but in a pinch either will do fine. Manald Heal or SoJs, TGods, boots you could always also consider Treks since Poison bypasses ES.

Your mention of doing mini Ubers (I assume you want to tele close in to Lilith and then change characters?) is very intriguing, but I thought I would warn you about something. If there are any of those damn witches anywhere you plan to use her Tele Taxi for, you could easily get yourself killed with Blood Mana curse. I would highly consider going the 'equal Life and Mana' route for your Sorc... perhaps save a respec/Token and do a test run thru such an area to see if you can tele by fast enough yet not die from tele dmg produced by the bm curse.

Seeing as you say this sorc will be one-dimensional, I don't see any negatives from just going 1 more pt of Life than Mana to completely avoid the Curse. Your natural Mana pool at lvl75 + Gear will provide enough to work with along with Insight from Merc.

(as for Pewk's suggestion about some points in Tele, I don't see how it could hurt, and I am guessing you will have spare points anyways? Why not then!)|||I would CERTAINLY go for guardian angel here. It and getting max resists makes you damn amazing in pvm

I would myself consider the following gear

Kira's SOL

Mara's / pdr + res amulet

Dual pdiamond / sol Moser's or

Guardian angel (sol)

Crafted safety belt

Frostburns

Rings to fill the gaps (Wisp, Soj, Dwarf Star, rare...)

Wizzy as weapon, Hoto if you feel like it.

Mix and match as needed



However, I would suggest getting 200 fcr sorceress instead, because she would be ALOT faster.|||thanks for replies,

i maxed warmth and did pretty much what you suggested. out of socket quests and when i have more, i will sock evrything and put some sols into equipment.

gangel? i am not sure if i need that because ES works even resist are negative, right?

mentioning mini ubers? as Knarlfist said, i tele to ubers only and tp there, barb will take care of dirty work

dying? no problem. only 30k to resurrect merc, maxed warmth just because i wanted to try without meditation aura (and without merc dependency) because sometimes my merc just die in 1 hit.

unfortunately my mana is higher than my life atm (trying to find life charms), that cursing witches always curse me with that blood mana curse. merc heals me until i reach my target and sorc has 1400 life (after BO), i found it quite enough, havenot died even once because of that curse.

i tried above setup on mini ubers, teleing to izual is no problem, even took a few hits until i open tp (from skill tab, not belt) and didnot die. on lilith she killed me (poison killed me actually) at sight fortunately i had made the portal just a few yards before. duriel is %99 near portal so no need for teleing, have not tested on him

fcr is around 130 and fhr is 55 (spirit only), i found them enough for casual teleing. for "tele-to-uber" i need some more fhr, trying to find some sandstorm instead of silkweave

i will also swap tgods with blacebuckle for fhr and dr/mdr stuff because i need tgods on some other character. maybe with nightsmoke i found yesterday, will test it later.
