She is currently at lvl 81 and im aiming for a MF sorc (lightning/orb), mainly tearing up places like countess, pit lvl, travi and so on. Not so many bosses in other words.
Im not so sure about either the skill tree, merc or equip. Currently im trying to get full tal rasha, nagelring x2, chance guards, wartraveller, spirit and some MF/skill charms. In hell i have like -60 on all resist... So thats a problem :P
When it comes to merc i have infinity, shaco and gladiators bane.
The tree is what confuses me most. I have about -120cold resist from the mastery, and maxed orb. The lightning tree has maxed chain lightning, mastery and getting lightning now. But my orb does way more damage than lightning, even though i heard that CL is suppose to be my main attack.
So, i just wanted to know if this sounds good to you, and if there is any changes i should do.|||well you definately want that full tal set seen as your resist is that low, i actually dont see the problem with the rest of your build though, the mercs infinity should make everything mince meat no matter what you fire at the bag guys, the reason it would appear your orb does more though is purely down to the amount of resist you and your merc are taking off the enemies
|||I think that you're investing too much on %mf. Tal rasha is always nice for sorcs. I'd drop the chance guards and nagelrings for fcr rings with stats/resists and magefists or trang gloves. That way your resists will go up and you will hit another breakpoint for your lightning/chain lightning (assuning you are using a 35% fcr spirit monarch). Also, since you have an infinity, i'd choose not to invest in cold mastery. just a couple of points (or those you get from tal orb) will do fine i guess.
I prefer ebug Treachery and vampire gaze on my mercs.|||How many points did u invest into CM? It's probably not worth putting more than 1 in there (0 will work aswell with the Tals lidless adding 1-2 + other +skill items). With the gear u have (+ torch and anni right?) u'll have about -90ish cold res BUT don't forget the infinity. U simply dont need more than that, FO is a back up attack anyway. It will be strong enough for any monsters that the infinity cant take care of.
Ah and yes. U should probably loose some of the mf and replace it with fcr|||But this is a MF sorc after all :O|||Well. Just pumping %mf and saying that 'this build is just for magic find' is not enough. That will only work if you consistently hit a boss that you can easily find and kill, like Mephisto. There are other things that contribute to the equation, like 'kill speed'.
A full Tal-Rasha sorceress, even without War Travelers can easily hit over 200% mf. But she can also kill things fast while keeping her resistances maxed.
Killing more with medium %mf > Killing less with high %mf, because magic find gives diminishing returns: http://diablo2.diablowiki.net/images...ng-returns.jpg|||With Infi's Conviction you shouldn't need more than one point in CM, and with Tal's added you don't need any.
Without significant investment in the lightning tree CL is going to feel underpowered compared to Orb (which doesn't need synergy investment to work well). With Conviction you don't really need Orb, but feel free to keep it. Just spending the points in the light tree instead of CM (and leveling a bit) should be enough. Also, using CL exclusively is not very optimal, rather throw a lightning or two in there every other attack.
IMO, FCR past the ~80% point is overrated (especially on b.net). It's nice, but it doesn't do that much for your kill speed. I wouldn't feel too bad about sacrificing a breakpoint for some MF.
