Blizzard or FB/Orb on Meph?

[Enigma_Stryke]

:nooob
Hey, I was wondering which was better for Hell Meph. That Vizjerei Mage guide on FB/Orb sorc, or the Blizzard Sorc that Tweak wrote up.

Also, heres my gear. Can anyone tell me which build most easily fits into this? I'm on USWest, if that affects anything.

FOR GETTING THERE / FOR MF

Occy / Ali Baba
PTopazed Skullder
PTopazed Shako
2x SOJ
Goldwrap
Lidless / RHYME
39% Travs
40% Chance Gaurds
+1 to sorc skills ammy (yeah, I know, laugh it up...)

And toooo many life charms.

I have many items for trade for trade, so I can probably get whatever else I should get.

P.S. How many Ist Runes can I get with one Annihilus? (20/13/7)

with static

and not much ist runes just dont trade your anny its hard to do

no bliz, if ur rich try Kao's Orb build (2 hit = meph dies) or fire sorc (meteor and fire ball pwns).

Occy /isted Ali Baba
PTopazed Skullder
isted Shako
2x perf nagel
Goldwrap
Lidless / RHYME
39% Travs
40% Chance Gaurds
2 fire sorc ammy, all resist, + str, 40 mf (thats mine, aim for it)

beautiful item setup, now for inv setup:
leave at least 3 rows clean. For the rest, fill em up with:
- perf gheed's fortune
- 7mf sc with + str/resists (most)
- some 20 life sc (bit)
- some FHR sc. (least)

Ok, now, you will see meph and pindle waving their arm at you in random game rooms. Enjoy~

edit

oh u seem to know how to do rune dupe hehe i would love to know iT! anyways.. you cant put anni into trade screen can you? so u might get ripped off... watch out =/

My guide for non ladder.

(Note: In my guide I say to max Fire mast..but maxing meteor is better)

Tweaks guide for ladder.

Yah, my build is awesome but it does require a huge item pool, including items like 15% Cold ormus', 5/5 Cold Facets, and 7 mf sc's.

 

[Ntrik_]

agreed, all sorcs need those kinds of items

If ur poor, do meteor + fireball sorc, river meph, get stuff, and yea... do baal run to get tal rasha armor and ammy.

 

[Kao]

Fire tends (I think) to need more of better gear. With Cold, you have pierce which just owns everything.

an old trick my friend taught me when I first began mf'ing in 1.09c (when firewall was the s***) is to tele to m3ph and lure him to the edge of the area he's on and tele to the other side (whichever side you're on, make sure you're behind the portal so he can't cast back) and wall the crap outta him, it works wonders with meteor now, and blizz shouldn't be any different, this is a relatively simple way if your sorc is gonna specialize in JUST m3ph and you wanna use most of your att points on a high def armor or madd mana
