Meteor/Orb Sorc Help

[Pale_Horse]

Trying to make a deul element sorc, but i realize I wont be able to max out the synergies, and or masteries. This is purely for Mf, so my question, is which is better to lvl. At the moment I have + 10 to all skills, which brings orb and meteor to 30, fire bolt and ice bolt are both at 20. Static, warmth, telekineses, teleport, and preregs are all 11.

Present Gear:

Shako (PTopaz)
Magi (cold die facet)
Oculus (cold lvl facet)
Spirit
Chancies
MF Boots (forgot name....Brain fart)
Tal ammi, and belt
Tal orb on switch, with SS


Any help would be nice thanks in advance.

Actually not really. Sorry but that build isnt designed for a duel element, no offence. But thanks for the help non the less.

I'll give you a breakdown of what my meteorb sorc skills look like(W/O + to skills).

IB:20
FBolt:10
Fball:10
Meteor:20
FMast:5
Warmth:1
1 to all preq(Fire skills)
Orb:20
IMast:2

Well, I hope that helps you out.

Now thats more like it thanks so much. Big help.

Just out of curiosity, what gear is she using.

 

[shinta2005]

just curious but whats the point in having metor if you cant max it? metor sucks unless its maxed, and even then i can only get it up to about 23-24k which you would think is a lot but my blizz sorc that does 5.5k kills shit so much quicker. Just curious how you can use a dual element sorc with metor

 

[SoD-GoD]

Shinta, duel elemental sorces are mostly used for Mfing. The duel elemental sorc doesn't need to be able to do 23-24k with meteor, thats what static field is for.

And to answer your question Sworn Enemy, my sorc is using:
Shako(Ptopaz)
Occy
Que Hagans
Rhyme
27,30 Nagels
Frostburn
and Silkweave.

The ammy and belt are just useless rares that do jack for her.

 

[Pale_Horse]

Thank you once again for the reply. You helped alot. My gear now is as follows:

Shako (Umed)
Magi (Upped, cold die facet)
HotO
Chancies (Perfect)
Spirit
War travs (oops forgot to add boots)
Tal Ammi & Belt
2x Bul-kathos Rings

On Switch:
Baba (2x Ist) CtA (to start with)
Lidless (P Diamond)

MERC: (Act 2 Def - Holy Freeze)
Gaze (Umed)
Stone (etheral)
Insight (etheral)

To answer the damage, of course I will not be doing 1 bazillionbillion 1 hit kills, but, I do kill the bosses rather easily. 700+ orb, and 7k+ meteor, I find this to be the answer to any character that is immune to 1 element. Granted their is the occasional immune to fire, and cold. Thats where the merc comes in :grunt

Let me know if you think their happens to be better gear for me to use. Thanks

 

[Deanoz]

I'll let you guys in on a GOOD MF SETUP AND A GOOD SORC SETUP

is something wrong with your head? Don't touch fire AND cold.. Go Orb/Thunderstorm if anything.. max orb and ice bolt and cold mastery first, then concentrate all other skill points on thunderstorm and then lite mastery... 1 to tele, warmth, etc. Or if your using energy shield thats different =\ 1 to frozen armor too..

shako
COH if you are poor, etheral skullders if your real poor, eth 08 skullders if you are really rich
any maras or gheart if your rich

 

[Pale_Horse]

Well I'm a bit too far to start overwith this character so I will make another down the line of light/orb. Right now I dont have too many problems, but that does sound nice for immunes some are fire/cold immune dont see too many, if any cold/light immune though. Thanks for the help.

Would you suggest sticking with holy freeze merc as well, or using something else like act3 fire?

 

[Apuca-Leirbag]

im not realy good but if for a duel/mf sorc cold/fire why choose meteor than fire ball. Fire ball casts faster than meateor and FB is good for dueling.. Am i right. I hope so.

 

[SoD-GoD]

I'd suggest against using the same gear for the two, due to the lack of absorb, and lack of resist. But if you are looking for a dual/mf sorc, you probly wouldn't want to go meteorb sorc. the best for that would be a blizzard/fireball sorc, though the build would take a lot of practice with the two skills.

I think I may make a guide for that though, sounds kinda fun to do.

[Ntrik_]

looks like ST got nubbed, that guide was for yamb botting or w/e, and itsn ot dual element.

just get occy, shako, tal belt, then CoH, and ss, etc,

and god, never act 3 merc, Ive tried them once, they're good for cow levels, get holy freeze if you're fire/cold, and cold/lightning = uber sucks unless you have all the cold skill gears.

 

[Pale_Horse]

Thanks all, my meteorb sorc is decently good. Only problem is immunes to cold/fire, but merc can take care of that if their isnt like 10 of more at a time.
