Lightning sorcs (PvM, MF etc)

Lightning sorces suck in hell cuzz everything is immune to them so you will never be able to mf or lvl up properly with them... And TS was nerfed in pvp, it does not own anymore.

Well...she's not MvP at all...she's strictly PvP. When you say TS was nerfed...what exactly do you mean by that...how bad is it now?

Thanks for the help guys.

errr jimbo......in hell lite sorc is way more better at mfing than cold or fire, my friends lite sorc could do pindle/eld/shenk/thresh/soothtooth, the worst would be cold sorc
as in PvP Lightning owns

Wow dark, your sadly misinformed (a moron)

Lit sorcs are ONLY good for: eldritch, pindle, shenk

Cold sorcs, OWN meph/pindle

Fire sorcs, OWN meph/pindle

They are all about the same.

lol,insolence ur funny,u dont even know who is soothtooth or thresh do u? cold sorc do not own pindle, as pindle has random fire/cold immunity while the prowling dead outside the temple r cold immune while pindle never has lite immunity .....lol "cold sorc owns pindle........" GG, lite sorcs r better than cold sorc when its mephing, do u know that lightning can reach 40+k dmg, u may hav a lite sorc but she gotta suck if u dont know shit bout lite sorcs, n yes lite sorcs r good at pvp as lightning travels faster than fireballs n wif fcr u can pwn faster than fire sorcs

Umm...if he's not immune cold sorcs do own pindle...and cold sorcs own meph a lot easier than pindle..

regardless of that...stay on the topic or start a new thread

Split complete.

Pindle can be immune to lit you idiot, and lit does not reach 40k dmg, mine is level 30 and does 12k, with TOTAL synergies max, at level 40 i could only see it doing MAX 30k... and meph wouldnt be frozen, you moron

lol ur sorc only does 12k cuz ur gear sucks?,ever heard of griffon eye,mang song lesson,5/5 lite facets,lite gcs? true pindle has lite immune didnt notice it till recently my bad,so wat if mephs frozen? he wouldnt be able to attk u when his stuck....so it doesnt matter if his frozen, blizz is hard to hit and orb range sucks against meph u gota go nearer in which meph could attk u as well for the orb to do max dmg, think before u type dude....dont post if its pointless

LOL, orb to freeze...

Gear on ladder:

Shako, occy (with 5/5 lit facet), 30 magi, gloom, frosties, war travs, whits guard, tals ammy..

My gear sucks?

K, lets use a shitty helm, no.

Fire Sorc's ive noticed suck at killing meph, the old fashion, cold/lite sorc are best at killing meph, static him then give him a few frozen orbs and his down for the count.

Fire Sorc is the best way to kill meph... Fire Ball/Meteor own meph life in no time.

Granted, fire skills are very painful for anyone (or anything) who wants to mess with a sorcress who has them. But, have you ever seen a blizzard sorc with max synergies? My friend Jesse, he's VERY strong, (lvl 95 barb, can smoke just about anything with throw weaps, and hes not a throw barb...) but, he died in one hit from a blizzard sorc's spell. The amount of dmg needed to kill him.... would be crazy.

I'm feeling the Cold Sorc's PvM power. I have a Cold Sorc with max'd synergies, Cold Facets, the works, packs 6,000 dmg Blizzards with -250% Enemies Cold Resistance.

Sofar as when she's at 900 Magicfind, she only does 3,000 blizzard damage with -185% Enemies Cold Resistances. Even with that low damage, the -resists really pour on the pain. Also, Blizzard is all about placement. If you place a small amount south east of your target the blizzzard damage hits quickly and nastily.

Cold Sorcs are hurt as they can't do shenk/eldritch. Anyone can do Pindle. Anyone can do Meph. Fire sorc's are a little hurting on Baal with the first minions. Lightning Sorcs have a helllof a time with Barduc, Cold Sorc's needa merc to kill off the Undead Mages.

My only problem with Cold Sorc mf'ing is there seems to be a large amount of Cold Immunes in act 5 Hell. Granted, I see a large amount of Lightning Immunes and cheer, but Besides the Worldstone Keep, Arreat Plateu, and Frozen Tundra, the rest of the act is cold immune. I find mf'ing with my cold sorc in Act 4 gives me insano good drops. 3 Tal's armor over the past 2 weeks. I might jus' be lucky, but I'm thinkin' this is love...

Light Sorc's are good, but I think lightning isn't strong enough in its massive kill-ability compared to Meteor and Blizzard. Meteor and Blizz have massive synergies and do area affect, which in my mind, is greatly important, as the best drops are from uniques not superuniques.

That being said, I still have a light sorc for fun.


Oh, also, no matter what type you are, get a Holy Freeze Merc, they're lifesavers. I'm still torn about a 4+ Needle or a perfect Eth Tomb Raider they're both badass. Anyhow, All Sorc's are good pvm/mf.

Granted, fire skills are very painful for anyone (or anything) who wants to mess with a sorcress who has them. But, have you ever seen a blizzard sorc with max synergies? My friend Jesse, he's VERY strong, (lvl 95 barb, can smoke just about anything with throw weaps, and hes not a throw barb...) but, he died in one hit from a blizzard sorc's spell. The amount of dmg needed to kill him.... would be crazy.

He might be this superior barb you say he is but it also depends on resistances.. If it were a hell game (which it probably was) and the barb had low cold resistance that could have done it.

The BEST mf there is out there is a frenzy Barb, decked out with upgraded 2 ist'd ali-babas. Hardest part of that setup is getting dual leech Mf rings/ammys, but its BY FAR the strongest temp for the best loot.

Sofar as mf goes, Any elemental sorc can work it. I tend to go for bosses more then straight-up act-wide mfing on normal monsters, I find better loot for my efforts. With a lvl 95 Cold Sorc I've found every unique and set item in the game from Meph and Diablo within 2 weeks of getting to hell act 5 starting with nothing on my own. That's not a boast, its saying that anyone can do it. With 700+% mf on a HIGH level character you'll rake in more items then you'd even WANT to sell.

Diablo is my PERSONAL favorite, as his drop quality was greatly increased with 1.10. I need my Merc to kill Lord De Sies(Seis?), as he's always cold immune, but I can usually kill the Grand Vizier, Lord De Sies, and the Demon hoe within 3 minutes. Each one of those mini-bosses drop great items (I usually keep a drop from one them every 4 or so runs) and each one is ALWAYS immune to their respective elements, so every Sorc is going to have an equally hard time with the bosses themselves. I suggest Cold so you can clear up everything except the mages, which makeup the lowest constituancy of Diablo's crib.

the lowdown is, no matter what kinda sorc you are, levels are more important then magicfind, if you're less then lvl 90 and mf'ing you're wasting your time.
