please comment on this possible build

why you learn blizzard is beyond my knowledge when you are orb sorc.

 

[peachykiki]

blizzard can do massive amount of damage

 

[Kooldac]

Also, you didn't talk much about the stat allocation.

 

[Ntrik_]

blizzard can do massive amount of damage

not without all synergies

you'd have to think of Blizzard's and Orb's cool down, having both around is useless, just stick with one.

and I would prefer Blizzard over orb.

 

[peachykiki]

yes but when you max icebolt and cold it raises the dmg of blizzard and frozen orb.

 

[Cell]

and there are no merman sporket or w/e... it was to " godly " so blizz took it off i guess... and this guide suck ass due to low fcr... there r a million ways u can improve this build... by not using an ss... first of all... cuz u will jus get raped... so go with a lidless, with a facet to increase dmg...

 

[peachykiki]

stormshield has 35 % physical dmg reduction and this is good against melee

 

[ZConnor]

yes but when you max icebolt and cold it raises the dmg of blizzard and frozen orb.

Orb only gets 2% boost from ice bolt, why not max all of Blizzards synergies instead of the orb?

Then use Glacial spike or another ice skill to compliment Blizzard for your secondary attack.

Just a thought...

not quite a guide - but the build is descent

 

[SweatyOgre]

As Cell said, Merman Sprockets don't and never will exist. Also, I don't get the reasoning behind the skill point placement, and the idea of basing this entire build on the fact that the sorc has absorb makes no sense to me. I could see maybe only using % absorb gear, but not T Gods only for its +20 light abosorb, and other items along those lines. Good job, you've absorbed 20 of the some 90k all a good CS zons charged bolts are doing to you.
